Black Diamond is well known for their R&D. In this case, Grivel has thoroughly tested the design for the Cyborg over past couple of years with their G-14.

An appropriately sized allen wrench set-screw could fill the hole. You may want to apply some sort of sealant to prevent rusting

How'd it go? I've used mine on a 9mm. It worked, but the lever action was "sporty".

THey belay well enough on skinny ropes, but the lowering part can be pretty scary.

Was it two years ago that Kennedy Hot Springs were destroyed?

I dunno, the lower malmute shotcrete troll was pretty damn good.

Wow... ummm... I'm just going to leave it alone.

They climb, but we would be a threesome. A fourth would be welcome. I will keep you posted.

Does Toast have an acolyte?

If I can get away from work, I will be in J-tree from 12/26-1/1 or so. I will have a woman an d a Columbian with me.

That gif makes me happy.

That movie sucks! But it is definitely bizarre. How about Gummo? Gummo is not ok.

I've been using /gasp/ REI Spirit GTX's. They are made by Raichle and have lasted longer than any Montrail boot I've owned. They are very waterproof and have plenty of space. Yes, they are only hiking boots, but it doesn't really matter if you have strap on crampons and don't plan to ice climb with them.

CFF said it best, I think.

Underworld Said: "it's also common knowledge the knots in runners weakens them...as does girthhitching." This is very true, but you don't expect a knot to lower the strength that much. Typical strength losses due to knotting are 30%. The sling that failed went at 4 Kn at most. There's a difference of 11Kn between the expected loss of strength and the actual loss (in this case).
