  1. is your defense that nitrox is more of a racist or alsoa racist?
  2. yellow tcu.. best cam evarr... if the yellow tcu and the green alien got into a fight... the winner would then fight Ditka...
  3. i'll take it... e-mail sent!!!
  4. you don't need to mod it, IMHO.
  5. no you don't ::
  6. You cary a gri-gri and a pulley on your harness while leading sketchy aid pitches? Hard aid is just like hard sport climbing, take all that crap off your harness and make yourself light, it makes a difference. At least thats been my experience and I've lead way to many scary aid pitches in my life. if it's that hard and you're that light - i imagine/hope you'd have a tag line. ...and if you're solo-ing - good chance you've got a gri gri on you
  7. a good reason to have the gri gri... you can rig up one ascender, a pulley and your gri gri to go frog style up to your high point and have it such that if it blows - the gri gri catches you and not your ascender
  8. gri gri is the way to go... just learn how to move the lower jug by slightly releasing it with your thumb. maybe this is easier on the yellow death-juggers than other types, i dunno. the gri gri is made to catch falls, feeds easy, is typically on your harness anyway if you're jugging (on walls, at least) and makes it a sinch to turn the system into a self belay method if you end up following part of a pitch on aid or even going free. following a traverse on aid is 'dicey' if you are using your jugs as your belay method.
  9. what are the dimensions of the crash pad?
  10. is that the 10d across the street from classic crack?
  11. most durable rope i've used: edelweiss sharp. (if you're looking for burly) several big walls, lots of jugging, few big falls.. still looks great! kinda pricey tho.
  12. I've ordered from acmeclimbing.com just a couple times and have been super impressed both times. Tuesday night ordered some loot and got a call yesterday that some things were out of stock and they asked if it was ok substitute em with something slightly better. i, of course, said 'yes'. A friendly person on the phone with a solution was a breath of fresh air as opposed to just a cold e-mail telling me to wait. UPS tracking says it'll be at my door today. great, fast, friendly service...is not dead!!
  13. mastercam....best size is blue/yellow. similar to the yellow/green alien which is even better. start w/ that size and start working out from there in both directions.
  14. go practice on sweet renton granite... (man, trolls use to have at least some creativity)
  15. email sent...
  16. one more try... anyone got a #3 big bro????
