About ClimbTech
As a child, Climbtech’s founder, Karl Guthrie, spent countless hours in his father’s machine shop helping him build experimental aircraft. He was in his own little piece of heaven. He would move cables and hold clamps and became fascinated with solving design problems they encountered as they worked each day. It was during this time that Karl learned how to creatively shape metals and stay focused on finding the right solution for what they were building. It had to be right because what they were doing mattered. That same dedication to creative problem solving still drives Climbtech today.
