    Balls would fall right out...Trask tried it.

    Yes you are right. I love attention from MY man - not others. I am in no way close to being like Muffy. I shall spare you the ugly details. If I were a true "attention whore" would I post as much as she does or even you pal? Don't get your panties in a bunch, there, Kitten. Again, retract those claws....I'm glad I'm not your SO.
  3. Too bad the guy's a dick. Tell him to start bolting responsibly or someone's going to chop some routes. Like the Hydrotube squeeze job.

    You're just like Muffy...an attention whore.
  5. True, but what Camalots don't do is get offset. Any other cams on the market can get offset, that is, one side is higher than the other. Since this only happens when the lobes can revolve around the same axle, the Camalots can't get offset. I really like this feature in larger sizes.

    Quit insulting me, Kitten. Retract those claws, please! Or you won't get petted.
  7. Ace. If you want tight sport shoes, Miura. Or Ascent.

    I do indeed know who I am. Thanks for pointing that out.
  14. Quit sending me those pictures of you and your mom, Trask, I'm not into that shit.
  15. Most popular skis today are about 78mm and up. Skis are getting fatter every year. For 200lbs, in Cascade glop, I'd say 75 and up, at 180-190cm long is fine. As the waist of the ski gets fatter, the shorter the ski should be. And remember: it's much easier to learn on shorter skis. As for instructors, I never had the money, but I had a few friends who helped me out. If you do have the money, a lesson or two will probably help shorten the learning curve.
  16. Fat modern skis, big boots, bindings. Buy cheap skis, you'll really thrash them while learning. Get a ski with a waist 70mm or bigger. Use boots like the Scarpa Lazer, which are soft enough to learn on, but will be fine when you're good. Get bindings with decent release. Go ski. Oh, get cheap old alpine poles. You'll fall a lot, and probably bend them. Buy good poles when you'er not a beginner anymore. Used alpine skis are a good choice. I like the Fritschi bindings. Good luck.
