Ushba Ural Alp titanium glue-in bolt from Russia. Circa late 1990s. At that time the routes in Thailand were being developed at a super fast rate but unfortunately the sea water was corroding the bolts within one year. So a new bolt needed to be developed that the salt water was impervious to and titanium became the answer. I am proud that Ushba reached out to me and I was part of the creative team that developed the Ushba Tortuga bolt.
