About Compass Point
Compass Point has been a trusted name in the orienteering and adventure sports community since 1991, known for providing top-quality gear, expert advice, and exclusive products that cater to both elite athletes and everyday adventurers. In 2018, Romualdas (Rom) Stupelis and his wife, Eleonora, took over the business to ensure orienteers and runners have access to high-quality gear and expert advice.
Rom brings a wealth of experience to Compass Point, using his deep knowledge of the sport to help customers choose the right gear, improve their performance, and navigate the challenges of orienteering with confidence. As a former elite orienteer, he competed internationally for Lithuania in the JWOC (Junior World Orienteering Championships) and EYOC (European Youth Orienteering Championships). He was also ranked among the UK’s top 20 orienteers, giving him unique insight into the needs of athletes and outdoor enthusiasts. His extensive experience allows him to recommend the best products to orienteers of all levels, from beginners to elite competitors.
A Passion for the Sport
With orienteering deeply embedded in our lives, we are dedicated to providing a valuable service to the community. Rom’s expertise ensures that every product we offer is carefully selected to meet the needs of orienteers and runners alike.
