now that is the funniest thing i've heard all day.

also print some t-shirts

you're clearly not cut out to be a sponsored climber Kev. everyone knows that they are all lying cheats. you need to work on your lying skills.

no you dumbass you need to spray about it first. THEN and ONLY THEN can pink sponsor you. but you'll need to lie about your achievements first.

Irony is not just a river in Egypt.

you misunderestimate the power of stoke.

you may have to cheat on your climbing resume though.

Check with Dirt Devil. They may be interested in sponsoring.

don't we all. i could totally rock high school the second time around.

your opinion is not valid. please try again.

there is an angry dictator who is interfering with the open market. but the loot isn't as good as iraq.

there isn't enough fossil fuel to justify it

nice. i did the boulder lakes to appleton pass traverse back when i was just out of highschool. the pictures definitely brought back memories. cool area.

nice! did you happen to take any pictures? i would love to perv out on them.

well, in a capitalist driven system, more consumer spending is pretty key.

imagine how fast that thing could spray.

there are some awesome sales going on at the mall. i recommend comfortable shoes, like sneakers, for maximum comfort when mall walking. also, orange juilius's do not contain any non-artificial ingredients. no oranges died in the making of them.

we really should print up some t-shirts and have a slideshow about this thread.

maybe what is needed is a new book: Obtaining Climbing Sponsorship: The Motivated Climbers Guide to Etiquette and Common Sense

since you put it that way, it does seem that Scott is being a whiney little git....since people are "cheating" to get sponsorship, he just gave in all together rather than continue on and set a good example for how things are supposed to be...but then he goes and bitches about it on the internet. at anyrate, how is the game supposed to be different? should wanting sponsorship be outlawed? i supposes as a "sport", alpine climbing is unique in that there no audience actively holding up rating cards and judging style...its a peanut gallery that takes place later, speculatively downgrading or guessing at the style the climb was actually done in rather than dealing with facts. I find the people who make it their business to downgrade climbs without leaving their arm chair, or who question the motives of others all day long just as/even more annoying than BS you list here Dru.

thats the Original Baller ™, and i honestly don't think you have what is takes to pull it off.

I agree it is an interesting conversation. Never said it wasnt. Spray is good by the way......this conversation is still 5 pages of spray, only in a climbing forum. Actually this thread is all about climbing and the business behind climbing. if you can't figure it out and STFU then i can help you.
