  1. Depending on what you're looking for, the Stranger might be a match. But if you're just looking for climbing partners with a certain fit, I'd suggest a more descriptive post in the Partners forum. Maybe what type/grade of climbing you're looking to do. Welcome to the board.
  2. But do they admit they are wrong? I don't think so. The Baller abides.
  3. Adventures of Mark and Jeff's pissbottle as the new camera inadvertently recorded video rather than take pictures CN17iA_ORKA
  4. see you up there
  5. Incredible photos! Love that "right foot, left foot" combo.
  6. I think the Baller has just established himself as a mathematical whiz. Not many get a chance to correct Mr. Yngve!

  8. "Say hello to the Master Cam, Metolius’ new single stem cam. First a couple of answers to the folks asking: The lobes are made of 7075 aluminum, they are the same sizes as Metolius TCU’s and Power Cams, and as a result have the same cam angle. They are available in sizes #00-#6, and are narrower (or at least look) than Aliens. They have a milled aluminum trigger assembly held together with two thin steel cables (see the center pictures) rather than the metal sheath that the Aliens have. Don’t despair, though, they still flex really well, especially in vertical placements. Flush ends, Kevlar trigger cord, and a molded thumb grip finish them off. Expect to see some changes before they hit the stores in the Spring of next year. They retail at $54.95, except the two largest sizes, which retail at $59.95." http://www.rockclimbing.com/Articles/Gear_and_Reviews/OR_Summer_Market_2007_-_Day_1_713.html

    its amazing how some people can just move up and down the social ladder at will!
  17. Dude! Some of the world's best climbing can be had aboard cruise ships!
  18. Well, if I can't get my zero down interest only loan, how DO you expect me to make money in the highly profitable housing market?
  19. I know seeing the same thing over and over might be boring for someone who is able to get out and climb as much as yourself, but other people just get the stoke from seeing recent pictures and seeing the current conditions. Its all about getting inspiration, especially when you're stuck in cubesville. But, seeing TRs for new peaks and crags is pretty awesome. As a matter of a fact, I think you should go do an FA this weekend. But I'm going to Squamish to climb guaranteed goodness.
  20. maybe if you do it it will inspire people. no doubt it would be cool to see TRs from less visited areas. i suspect that the reason you see a lot of TRs from the same places is that with limited time, people choose to go climb "guaranteed" quality pitches (i know that is my reasoning behind it) on stuff that maybe everyone else has done but they haven't. that said, i think going out on an adventure, into the semi-remote is the way to go, and I'd love to see more pictures from that type of climbing. You do see it...look at the climbs a number of people have done in the North Cascades (like Blake's recent TR). There is even FAs out there waiting (and perhaps quality ones at that), or 2nd ascents. After I win the lottery I promise to follow your advice.
  21. yes, but notice the full head of hair on that guy. and the harness!
