All this bullshit has me stuck at work. The slapdicks here can't drive 30' in 2" of snow without cocking something up. The road headed out of this place is jammed with jackasses and a jack-knifed bus at the end.

I would not want to ski anything in Mountaineering boots. That would suck. I really wouldn't want to ski in mountainering boots and a full pack. That would suck balls. I've got Dynafits that were fitted to MX-7's and Scarpa Matrix boots. In all, it was light and skied well enough for a newb like me.

It looks like operating the trigger is easier than the petzl stuff. I won't be buying any for a while.

The Edelrid is pretty big.

The Airtech Evo is light, has a steel head and will climb some ice. The curve in the shaft adds some "oomph" for self-arrest. If you like the grip of the BD, you might look at the new Venom ice axe with replacable pick.

She has a backend like a Mack Truck. Are tennis professionals as monitored for doping as other athletes?

Instead of rentals, maybe we could organize a tool lending tree in seattle. I have some Tech WIngs (very similar to Taak00ns) that I would lend.

This is the start of a fall from grace. Next thing you know, you will be pulling on gear on Das Toof.

Effing rad. Kudos to Club Sport

i don't think any of the cc.comers there bothered to take a picture http://www.goatse.cz potentially NSFW link

pictured from left to right: e-rock, archenemy, dechristo, mr. phil, fenderfour. No, I'm taller.

Hey fender 4......why dont you go eat a dick! Case in point. It's a good picture, but nothing original. "Eat a dick" is about as lame an insult as you can get. Check out some insults from classic cc.commers. Trask had a flair for creativity as did Polish Bob and Caveman.

Please Kevbone, work on your witty reparte, maybe ask a few folks before you post to make sure it's entertaining. Even if it isn't entertaining, please make sure it doesn't screw up the thread. Your posts are so bad they could f_ck up an Uncle Tricky TR.

I could be wrong, but posting a note at the gear shop in Leavenworth would probably get a few more serious responses.

Crush washers are typically used to form a seal of some sort. My motorcycle has a simple crush washer on the drain plug. ALWAYS replace them if they fomr a seal. I doubt that the washer on the quark creates a seal. REuse it.

The provided link says that the "blade" is interchangeable. This might mean replacement heads for X-Monsters will be available.

Its like... like frankenstein!!!!! The x-monster head, the Taa-k-oon shaft, the Top Wing pommel, the foreskin from the new anti-bott system. (yes, for crampons)

I would stop wearing ski boots to ice climb.

You are making an example of a specialized placement for which Aliens were ideal. For any horizontal, I would be more than happy to place a U-stem DMM cam. I wouldn't retire a cam because of a kinked stem (I have many kinky cams). If there was fraying, I would retire it. Even then, I would rather risk damaging a cam in lieu of tying off a forged friend short.

I see a plaque in the fifth picture. Did someone die there?

It is definitely possible if the propeller is driving a gear box connected to the wheels.
