Adventure beckons for Ollie Ollerton as he partners with Terratoura for mission Ama Dablam

6th September 2022

In association with Terratoura, we are sponsoring TV personality Ollie Ollerton as he embarks on an epic mountain climb in the Himalayas, Ama Dablam.

Terratoura has been designed to tackle extreme conditions from deserts to frozen icescapes to rocky terrains, so it is the perfect partner as Ollie undertakes his gruelling pre-deployment training schedule.

As adventure beckons for the former Special Forces soldier, we have kitted out Ollie’s VW Amarok with Terratoura’s to ensure he has predictable, reliable handling when travelling from A to B for crucial outdoor training ahead of the challenge.

Key features of the Terratoura include:

  • 5 rib pattern design which provides exceptional performance both on and off-road. This tread design gives Terratoura assured traction in all weather conditions
  • Enhanced tread compound to deliver the durability required for off-road endurance, while providing excellent grip in cold and wet conditions
  • Tread support bars which are specially constructed to offer assured and stable on-road performance and low noise.

We will be documenting Ollie’s training progress in the lead up to the challenge across our social channels, plus the highs and lows of the climb itself. Not only that, watch this space for a post-climb debrief with Ollie as he unveils more about the conditions he faced, his experiences of the trek and what he has learned from the adventure.

The trek will take place at the beginning of November, when Ollie will climb alongside Nims Purja, an experienced mountaineer and star of the documentary, 14 Peaks Nothing Is Impossible.

“We are delighted to be supporting Ollie on his epic challenge. The ethos of our Terratoura tyres is adventure beckons and this symbolises the partnership with Ollie perfectly,” said Peter Cross, general manager from Davanti Tyres.

“We’re honoured to be a part of Ollie’s training journey prior to the climb and are excited to see him plant the Davanti flag when he reaches the summit! We wish him and Nims the very best as they undertake this amazing feat.”
