The team launched the near year with an amazing reception parade, organized by Angela Myers and many other super cool locals. Big Bear…that was the most humbling and amazing display of pride we could have ever imagined.
Next, the team rolled to New York for Jordan to nab, some of the National Media that has been calling…and for Jordan to have an opportunity to tell the message to the nation of kids…to FIND YOUR EVEREST-

Crossfit Endurance Cycling Seminar with Doug Kotana and Bryan Mackenzie…this is some character building stuff. Thanks guys- going to be a great 2012 of stomping onto the podiums of the most grueling races in the world.
Its’ in the bag. It’s complete. Another world record and the culmination of 6 years of hard work. Jordan created this quest when he was 9 years old, and it’s finished Antarctica. There are not too many people that have climbed all 7, and it will feel good to be standing on the top of this one. It’s the coldest place on earth, and this climb was not a gimme, we continued the hard work and persevere that this expedition safe and sound, this is most important. We three climbed in the honor of 3 dear friends and cancer survivors and fighters.
2011…went off without a hitch. Team got to travel, race, and step onto the podium of some of the most grueling endurance events in the world. It’s what we live for.
From Alpine Ski Racing (U.S.), Stand Up Paddle Racing (California), 12hr, 24hr (U.S.), and multiday MTB races (Brasil), Expedition racing (Brasil), Staged Multisport racing (in Chile), and Cyclecross (Las Vegas) it was a year of putting the foot on the accelerator…and never letting off.
2011, Some amazing new relationships were initiated of which will grow into amazing opportunities. In the forefront, is…what we are calling a product that has taken our power and agility to another level…(and I don’t use those terms very loosely…), its: AGILITY GUARD. In our own independent study, underway here in Big Bear, the ability to optimize the bite and improve alignment of the TMJ, neck/head….in the application of virtually ANY physical test or competition… the AGILITY GUARD has shown time and time again it provides anywhere from 9-20% gains, and in some cases larger. We have witnessed, documented and prepared to show and prove anytime day or night. It’s rather unbelieveable. NEVER WILL WE RACE OR TRAIN without Agility Guard. It’s that important to us…
2012 will have continued documenting/studying of the Agility Guard, right here in our hometown of Big Bear. Inquiring minds want to know more? Just drop us a line, we can get you connected with the best Agility Guard certified dentists to get you on board with this device and the perfect fit…BUT, ONLY if you are seeking the next level
These efforts take a whole village of sponsors and supporters, and the most sincere thanks to every one of them.

In it’s second year, Brasil Ride has become the premier staged MTB race in the world. For 7 days, central Bahia hosts athletes from 18 countries and facilitated an all out battle for fun and glory on roads/paths and the most incredible singletrack that can be found in such a race. Team SOLE consisted of Dudu (Eduardo Soares of Belo Horizonte, Brasil ) and your’s truly…Paul Romero.

Paul charged it in the Brooks 8km Classic Trail Run….taking win in Age group and #4 overall. Fast and hard stuff that is. Good times.
Coldest place on earth. The most remote mountain range in the world holds the tallest mountain of Antarctica. It’s called Vinson Massif. The successful ascent of this mountain for Jordan and team will be the final peak of the quest to climb the 7 Summits, and secure the world record for youngest human to accomplish such a feat, at age 15. We are about to dive into intense physical preparation and securing of the last means to get the team to Antarctica. Stay tuned for exciting deets.
We’re calling it OPERATION ANTARCTICA. Check out the 7 ways you can join the effort for the 7th Summit…
It all started a few years ago when Jordan was sitting in the back seat of the Element, on the way home from climbing Mt. Whitney. He dreamed about climbing the high points of 50 states. He asked, we approved. Here we go.
Starting in Delaware, the team will spend several months doing many legs of what will be an attempt to climb the highest point of all U.S. states and of all Canadian provinces.
June 25 is the day, and New England is our first leg….9 states in 5 days. The team will then move onto the No Barriers Summit in Winterpark, Colorado.
