    DD: my point being that what is weird to you, might be perfectly normal to me... it's all about perspective, or percetion or something like that

    Open ends make it better. Now be quiet or talk about how you like other women or something more interesting than your current babble. [laf]

    Let us know if it envolves a hanging belay [laf]

  3. There is nothing wrong with being a female climber. They are astonishing at times. Look at Lynn Hill for instance. I heard that some of the females that use this site are pretty hardcore themselves. [Cool] Also there is nothing wrong with learning to climb under a mentor. It might save your ass some day. Many things can be learned from mentors to include good skills that can be passed along.

  4. I know we's all thinking the same thing here, let me be the first to say it:

     

    Thelawgoddess: Fucking calm yo ass down!!

     

    Ok let's analyze this spray posting. I have nothing against either one of these sprayers.

     

    It's great that you want to take up ice climbing this season--I'm happy for you, but as you've said right here on this board, your total experience is climbing some POS grey low angle ice (aka O-rock)--a whole 400 freaking feet--and doing some ice bouldering.

    Kind of harsh but translated as you have not actually climbed any water ice yet. But you are psyched. We all are since this dreary season is upon us.

     

    Oh yeah, and that super easy, I-could-climb-it-with-my-eyes-closed, fake wall at Cascade Crags.

    I don't think the drytool wall there is easy. However I must admit that the fake foam wall is pretty easy. It does little to prepare for the real surroundings of waterfall ice climbing.

     

    That said, fucking stop acting like you know what the fuck you're talking about!

    I think lawgod has a stick in his anus on this one.

     

    Listen, you ain't no ice climber yet! You haven't even had a taste of real ice yet.

    I guess you are not an ice climber until you free solo WI4. Stick in anus.

     

    As someone who's climbed ice for several seasons now, let me tell you, be prepared to shit yo fucking pants when you finally get onto something worthy of being refered to as an ice climb. It's scary, and, frankly, you might even find that it's not for you.

    It is scary when the water is not frozen and runs down beneath your clothes, the screws bottom out or when the ice is falling apart. It is also scary when you wrench with all your might on -15 degree ice and still can't get a screw to budge. It's usually pretty cold out too.

     

    And look, fucking forget about free soloing, solo TRing, drytooling, etc.

    I think soloing is not a great idea on any real big blue ice which Washington has little of. But if you must become one of the dumb ones I use your body for a doormat at the base of a climb when necessary.

     

    Girlfriend, you're looking to get yer self killed. You are WAY over anxious about this whole ice thing. Look, here's my advice to you if you want to be an ice climber:

     

    1. Calm yo ass down.

    Umm yeah.. I'll pass on that one.

     

    2. Quit acting like you know wtf you're talking about (and save some bandwidth for the rest of us)

    Well at least admit you don't know shit and then drive on.

     

    3. Keep practicing with Col. Spanker et al--great exp. for when you actually do try to FOLLOW your first REAL ice climb.

    Rumor has it that you don't do much leading on rock as it is. Get with a mental training program and start trad climbing. On the flip side there are complete mountain routes thousands of feet long that never exceed 60 degrees that I would call technical. Are these real routes?

     

    4. Quite trying to be super ice woman--again, too cool that you're taking up this hobby, but ice climbing is not one of those things that you can safely jump into as fast as it appears you're trying to do.

    Anyone can SAFELY ice climb if they had say a solid leader to drag them around. But yes it can be a humbling desire. Keep it real.

     

    Take care o' yo self, and don't fucking get killed on us.

    If you die bummer. If you die soloing then I don't give a shit.

    I'm with Matt; you guys suck.

    The way I see it you are right there with all the c-h-r-o-n-i-c s-p-r-a-y-e-r-s

    Uh...No.

    Oh I see... Come out and try to play with the sprayers but when you are called on your own chronic put downs you can't admit to your own shortcomings. Typical cheesedick response. [Roll Eyes] I'll be watching you [Razz][big Grin]
  6. Drytooling is not a beginner sport. Plus it can be fucking hazardous to your dental work and cranium bone. Get off the hype lawgoddess and quit fondling through magazines so much. Within about 20 minutes I bet you'd find it real boring anyway. Pulling on plastic is more fun. Besides I am with Lambone when he mentions ruining gear and will not improve any ice climbing skills you have. I doubt you'll do much drytooling this winter while out seeking ice anyhow. Usually it's sick shit and doesnt really compare to what the Cascade Crags gym has to offer.
