Anyway, it is good stuff.
What can I say.. He knows how to stock his store with plenty of lightweight items that other stores don't carry. I think he was the first one around with the stubai aluminum crampons, and the ID bivy sacks, and the Grivel Rambocomps, and the Grivel Air Tech axes, and the Sierra Designs Hercules Tent,and GoLite, and Ushba Pitons, and cheaper steel pitons by Camp, and off brands nobody else does and he demos gear to people. Therefore trying out stuff before you buy it. I believe in the lightweight approach and don't go to REI as much as some since they like to carry heavy shit.
