Rob Jarman – Honister Slate Mine Shoot

I have just returned from shooting the last Voodoo Challenge for Halfords and MBUK magazine. This last epic was based at Honister slate mines in the lakes.

The idea was to climb up the Via Ferrata with my bike on my back and then race back down, Man V Mountain and all that!

The feature will run in the mag next month and there will be a short video running on YouTube pretty soon, I’ll get the link added next time.

I would just like to say a big thanks to Jan, Joe and Barry at Honister for looking after us on the shoot and helping out in every way possible.

The new routes on the Via Ferrata are great fun and a real challenge for all levels of climbers and adventurers, ill be back with a bunch of mates asap.

Been pretty busy with the stunt work too, having worked on Spooks, Sherlock Holmes, Misfits and Batman over the last month. I’m looking forward to some quiet time so I can get practising on the bike for the Erzberg enduro at the end of the month; hope it’s not as hard as last year…..

Oh and the camper van has just gone in to get fitted, 4 weeks and I’m road tripping!!!!
