We consider the high order moments estimator of the frontier of a random pair, introduced by [S. Girard, A. Guillou and G. Stupfler, J. Multivariate Anal. 116 (2013) 172-189]. In the present paper, we show that this estimator is strongly uniformly consistent on compact sets and its rate of convergence is given when the conditional cumulative distribution function belongs to the Hall class of distribution functions.
