How 'bout Snotel?

Like when I called Sprint to cancel my LD plan (because I was moving) and the guy just automatically offered to put me on a 5 cents/minute plan.

The drag is made up for by the increased spring in your step from overtightened skins though. More than compensates.

This is a friend of mine's site. His prints are stunning. Some climbing shots from Squamish in the "Lifestyles" gallery. www.markraymondmason.com

I don't know how, but I do know it happens. The ski is not flat remember, so if you pull the skin tight, the n you are trying to pull it off so it can follow the chord from tip to tail, creating some perpindicularish force...

Then Bullshit. Just make sure you attach the clip, then stick the skin to the ski, so the glue isn't stressed. Dave's right, young 'un. Been there, done that.

They are already on the yay or nay question over here at telemarktips.com.

I would guess that there should be some work on Deep Burials and Multiple Victim Strategies, probably Pinpointing on a Line, maybe Vertical Plane Searching. If it's just transceiver practice for $85 that would be weak, but I would hope that it would be a lot more. There's also such a thing as learning new techniques and tools...

RTFM It's really not to hard. Make sure you have something solid to hammer the rivets on. Measure three times before you cut.

I get "the problem" from time to time with W98SE and Opera7.23, but the expire cookies link always seems to fix it.

The cuff is kind of the key isn't... and the super comp is a bit of a mutant in terms of leather boots. I skied leather for quite a few years. Whenn I got plastic, I finally felt like I knew what my skis were doing, and then I was able to get them to do what I wanted. No accounting for taste. Your "leathers" are probably beefier than my plastics anyway. I've got old 2-buckle T-2s.

Do you want warm dry feet? Get Plastic. Do you wanna learn to carve high speed turns? Get Plastic. Do you wanna make the occasional p-turn? Get Plastic. Do you likr the idea of getting feedback from your feet so you can learn good technique? Get Plastic. Do you wanna be retro and hardcore?? Ride the Cow.

That's an insulting and offensive analogy. To who?

Hey, you can't post this here. It's a new route for crying out loud!!

Try this instead:

FWIW, I use a 10mm + a 7mm rap line when it seems appropriate.

I lost about 3m off the end of my pretty pink 10mm. It pulled a couple rocks down with it, and they landed on it somewhere along the way. Luckily the whole thing went down to the side of the ridge we were rapping down. The sheath was busted wide open and the core sustained some damage. Maybe about 80% intact core. I've still got the bit lying around as a souvenier, somewhere. If it was a rock landing on a loaded rope I imagine it might have been a deeper cut. 'Twas a good climb, I would recommend it.

and carharts aren't a fad?

I would be. It's the only situation I've ever lost rope due to rockfall. Mind you, it was when I was pulling the line, not when I was on it. Twight has a lot to say about this issue in "Extreme Alpinism," I am too lazy to type it all in here though. Worth looking up.

Maybe they are too busy developing new routes?? Maybe they spent too much on drills and brushes and bolts and chain to afford DSL?? Who knows??
