  1. Why? GriGris are fine for sport routes. If you are anchored to the ground, though, a grigri can increase forces on your gear as there is no slippage in the system. Don't worry about it for sport climbing.
  2. To feed rope fast with a grigri, the only possible method is to hold the cam down with one hand and pull rope though the device with the other. Just make sure to let go of the cam if the climber falls!
  3. I've been hurt on overhanging terrain when my belayer didn't leave enough slack in the system. I peeled from a roof, and smacked into the wall below it. Sprained ankle, , sucked. Unless you're climbing some very runout low-angled slabs, don't worry about reeling in rope.
  4. Lummox, for once, just SHUT THE FUCK UP. If you want to know what happened, ask, instead of giving the guy shit. Your bullshit assumptions make you an asshole. Why the hell would you give him shit for thanking those who helped him? Yeah, people tend to give Scot'teryx shit, but now is NOT the goddamn time. STFU, it's that simple.
  5. Maybe he meant a 'wanker fucker'. Lummox, go eat a dick.
  6. Catbirdseat, don't prove his point. "the world is full of stupid people..." duh.
