  1. I heard that one of Jens's regular partners flunked outta da Mounties. The Mounties regularly have a graduation rate of something like 1/2 to 2/3. And they do kick out people who have been warned about fitness, safety, etc., and don't get better. He didn't flunk out. Tell it as it is. The fact that they did had issue with him yet he continues to complete climbs at a level very few other mounties currently do says a lot about their conclusions. Level of climbing has nothing to do with safety or survival. "I never expected to live to 30." - Guy Edwards (1972-2003)

  9. "Alright listen up! In future, when rapelling down a steep trail, try not to look like such a dork! Mountie High Command, signing out!"
  10. what if you just campus up jughauls and don't use your feet? switch to a stiffer shoe, like a board lasted shoe? does it hurt when you hike or just when you are climbing?
  11. Damn, you're 2 for 2 on doubleposts today - Skinner and this! http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/threadz/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/610335/an/0/page/0#610335
  12. ya that was the joke. I wouldn't rely on the numbers on 8a.nu either. You mean I'm not the 2547th best climber in Canada after all?
  13. I don't think the loads generated rappelling would be significantly different for an ATC vs a GriGri, and not significantly different for a static vs dynamic rope unless you start jumping around all over the place.... rapping situation is close to a static load on the anchor.

    Obviously you haven't received the memo. There is no deviation from the previous course. Attention! Your attention please! A newsflash has this moment arrived from the Iraqi front! Our forces in South Baghdad have won a glorious victory! I am authorized to say that the action we are now reporting may well bring the war within measurable distance of its end. Here is the newsflash...: plusgood doubleplusgood plusgood doubleplusgood

  21. if you read the thread, you'd know it's cause the existing bolts are trash in the wrong place. better to remove than to replace and compound the original mistake.
  22. When your kid takes your gun to school and shoots 6 classmates and a teacher and then himself, you'll probably wish you had bought Hello Kitty socks instead of a gun
