Dakota Kirchenschlager on Fastback Ropes: Loyalty, Quality & What It Takes
New Releases

3m 7s
Dakota Kirchenschlager has been with Fastback Ropes since he was 19 years old, and at 35, that loyalty runs both ways. Through injuries and the inevitable ups and downs of a competitive career, Fastback never walked away, and that means something to Dakota. For him, loyalty isn't just a nice quality in a sponsor.

He makes the case for why Fastback stands above the rest and why, after 16 years, he hasn't had a reason to look anywhere else.
