Great no more comments, but the mud had already been flung and stuck! What was needed was an immediate and proactive media campaign to counteract those comments.

Attacking the VCC committee? I am a passionate member of the Victorian climbing community and, been climbing probably longer than you have been alive! I have only the best interest of climbing in the State in mind and therefore cannot sit idly by while Philipp continues his toxic online campaign. I would be questioning him regardless of whether he is on the VCC committee. The fact that he is the VP only makes his behaviour more petty and disgraceful!
