    How much worse are keds than climbing shoes really?

    I want to be perfectly about my response above. I don't think that climbers should ignore and not use improving techniquest and equipment for safety. I'm opposed to the snotty attitude of the original poster. It also should be said that teaching kids to hip-belay as a back up isn't inherently unsafe. During an incident with a gri gri at smiff that I happened at smiff when I was climbing with a group of friends, a hip belay was employed to protect the climber until we could switch the gri gri with an ATC. Glad that a few of us had been taught the hip belay. as for climbing in street shoes...it may not be the best for the rock but its not inherently unsafe. Don't take a holier than thou attitude and then be surprised when people don't rush to your side.

    i hate it when someone posts something; doesn't like the response and then cries foul. yes its cc.com. there are plenty of productive conversations. i learned to climb in....keds!!! oh the horror! there was a time when there was no such thing as sticky rubber. people climbed in street shoes and boots all the time. and even worse...i leanrned the hip belay before i learned anything else. my first belay device was an 8 that left me with lots of twisties in my rope. i'm pretty sure that i lived through both of those things. now please forget that i posted this b/c i don't actually climb

    Hey, fuck you

    fuck you biotch! go climb some stuff or something. this is the warm fuzzy spray and if you don't want have a group hug with a bunch of frat boys you're gonna have to move on.
  20. I will verify that Sobo does refuse climb at vantage. I've invited him several times and he always refuses and tries to make me go to some random place in Idaho with mumblings about falling and rocks. I've tried bribary and blackmail to no avail. He'd rather have me post his nude climbing pics than go to vantage. Sobo is the reason I don't climb. Its all his fault b/c he won't go to vantage.
  21. its never too early on your birthday! are you gettinng soft in your old age? happy birthday KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
