Learning to Dive - Your chance to "Ask Alex"

by Alex Thomson Racing 13 Mar 2014 09:52 GMT 13 March 2014

How do you learn run to up a 30m mast, while the IMOCA60 HUGO BOSS is sailing? Or to dive from a moving vessel at 12m whilst wearing a HUGO BOSS suit?

This is your chance to ask these, or any other question, to Alex as he joins the infamous Mr. Clean from Sailing Anarchy for a #mastwalk focussed AMA (quite literally, Ask Me Anything). You can submit your questions on Twitter, using the hashtag #mastwalk, or via our Facebook post, here http://on.fb.me/1oOX5DQ
