Cobra SUX…. I never understand the hype about them I had one for about 8 hours and returned it got rid of it like a bad sickness…got a Rages instead…the RAGE are the BEST TOOLS BD MADE period…I also have the Quarks (BD try to imitate them with the Viper….ah amateurs another tool that SUX) and it is my preferred hard WI/mix tool

I have the ATC-XP – Pro: great feed, control, smooth rap, can rigged without taken off the biner Con: hard to belay 2 with it, OK control on single skinny rope rappel, (my preferred rock climbing belay device) ATC- Pro: great feed Con: OK rap, no control, hard to belay 2 with it, bad control on single skinny rope rappel Reverso - Pro: can belay 2 with it Con: jerky feed, bad control, cant rigged without taken off the biner, fast rap, bad control on single skinny rope rappel TrangoB-52 – Pro: can belay 2 with it, can rigged without taken off the biner Con: jerky feed, bad control, OK rap, bad control on single skinny rope rappel Trango Jaws - Pro: great feed, smooth rap, control, can rigged without taken off the biner Con: hard to belay 2 with it, OK control on single skinny rope rappel Metolius BRD – Pro: control, can rigged without taken off the biner, smooth rap Con: jerky feed, hard to belay 2 with it, OK control on single skinny rope rappel OP SBG-II - Pro: great feed, control, smooth rap, can belay 2 with it, great control for single skinny rope rappel, Con: cant rigged without taken off the biner (my preferred Ice/all around belay device)

Anyone interested doing something tomorrow I am available all day (Just don’t have a car) 206-328-2446

I guess u had to climb there once to see what I’m talking about (allot of time they using the rings in order to create more room for biners to avoid clusterfuck at the belay…otherwise u will see a chain to avoid the American triangle) BTW pendulum is one of the most esthetic and well protectable line on “Mordor wall” in Cathedral and it goes at 11+

There is no need to bolt a crack especially when it offers such a good pro…as it seems here it is not a rap station it is a belay station and BTW on cathedral u can walk off or use the abundant rap anchors on the neighboring routs

pendulum crack crack bolt 1 crack bolt 2 crowbar whach whack whack tap tap tap pendulum gear anchor tool kit so what ya think

“Good judgment is a result of bad experiences and bad experiences is a result of poor judgment” …we all hoping to live long enough so we can have good judgments… Look at this, this way…it is a way to filter the good from the bad, and to keep in check the climber’s population control…to most I will say… do as much as you can DUMB SHIT!!!…so, I can go up and see less ecological environment destruction and less peoples on already over populated activity…yeah, less is more…unlash the dumbasses

Here it is all the way to Wall Street journal

Go with the RidgeRest ¾ for only 9 oz total…I thought that one would like to experience the outdoors, outdoors and NOT experience the indoors outdoors….believe me …if you worked hard enough when u were awake you will have no problem falling asleep at the end of the day

I got mine late January and got 3 weekends of ice climbing and approaches with them three words… they are GREAT!!! …If they fit go for them

I really like the SBG-II for Ice, the ATC-XP for Trad and the GriGri for Aid/Solo/sport I’m just not in for winded explanation for the reasons I do…Try and you’ll see

her ya go

Looking to buy Metolius Half-dome or A5 Redix Is anyone has a used one for sale

I have 40cm X-15 in mint condition as a third tool never had to use it…however, it looks so cool on my harness I did climb a NEI 4 just with it to see how well it will perform…it works like a charm

agree!!! Poor choice of words I will say…however Gullible it is more appropriate relaying on manufactures biased interest …just do a quick research before spending the hard earned cash (which so little of it coming my way these days) and base your decision accordingly
