Yes Erik. We all know you have come out of the closet.

 

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Does anyone use the Wild Country Big Wire?

Cragging has route descriptions that match features you can actually identify.

 

Alpine climbing involves a lot of WTF??? navigation.

Sahale doesn't have a real glacier, one small crack, two at most. No need for a rope.

The Quien Sabe looks like a glacier to me.

Stupidest invention ever to hit the climbing world if it's anything like the DMM ones.

 

Let's take a really good design (wire gate) and screw it up so we can be first to market with a "cool" design...

 

Putting the knob (mass) on the end of the wire brings back gate flutter or slap, twisting the wire around to hold the knob makes them harder to clip. I see no advantage of a keylock wire gate over a Putzl Spirit or BD's new keylocks, except maybe a couple grams lighter.

With the Wild Country, the gate is the same (maybe narrowed at the end) and a bollard shaped notch is in the forging. Yea, the DMM keylock wiregate is a bit contrived.

The people on this site owe you a whole lot more than you owe them.

 

I've received a few death threats through this site as well. Pretty sad.

Two nights ago, my car was rummaged through. The doors were unlocked and nothing was smashed. Luckily they didn't go into the back where I had some climbing gear. I need to figure out how to turn on the alarm system without locking the doors. And this on an arterial street in a North Seattle neighborhood.
