Sorry, I just wouldnt drag you up Rainier for a speed climb just because you had nothing to do...which is what I ended up doing anyway.....lol Went up to Ingraham flats and played in my favorite crack........ I'll be keeping ya in mind for the future.

Anyway.......I just got back from testing the DMM Revolvers, and as I suspected......NO GOOD as Pulley for crevase rescue due to an unstable platform. I like them, just not any better that a good ole' PM Pulley...... Thats it.......

Duh............

Jesus!

Can ya post the pic of the Arc’teryx Khamsin 62 on here. Im interested....However, just wanna see for now..

I just bought 3 DMM Revolvers and wanna see if I can tinker with my Tiblocs and made them work sorta speak. I think they will be ok, but with weight shifting, they may become a problem due to the pulley not securing the rope in, so we will see what happens under real weight. I will be up on the hill in about 2 hrs, and will put them throught the ringer with my work partner.

Well said Dru.

It helps if you tell us what you would like to climb...... Im actually in the mood to do a climb on my 2 wks off.... Leaning towards Hood for the hell of it.

I Just read my PM...and Im down to do the route..... 6 pack is cooling up as we speak... Call u in a minute or 7

Why dont you go up there and take them....just asking....

OK, what a bottle of Ol' E?.........Jesus!

I agree....

Mmmmmmmm

Maybe its time to play leashless, I mean your belayer has to wear a helmet regardless.

What if you really need extra line to setup a cz and or other systems...what then....? Im not challenging you by all means, I like to long rope, short rope, and all of the styles out there, however, the margin is there, what happends when ya need the extra line? Id like to try the 37m method myself, just have to find a way to play with the idea on a 3 man team.

I dont like alternatives, cause of the high friction.... How many of you have ever lifted someone using biners as pulleys....? Its a bitch isnt it? If you every have: 1) You wished you did used pulleys cause your exhausted, and cursed yourself for not carryng 2 xtra ounces. 2) Your climb may be ended due to your partners exposure to the elements while you were working your heart off trying to lift him. 3) Do you want that?.....Is it worth it...?

Hey Clint.....I gotthis whole week off and would like to sink my pick in ova on the fan seracs on the Nysq..... Wanna come........? Or anyone else?......Ill bring the six pack and smokes....lol

Amen

lol

I might be off a few days in August that I can play....I'll let ya know..

I guess no one is gonna take this seriously....no problem, I already have all the material for my book someday, however, this is a serious climbing forum, and i know there are serious climbers here like myself. I do rescue work for a living, and have to remain on top of things, but like to share, and learn from others 'cause Im not stuck up or sucked into my job so much that I forget who I was before.....

LOL......So if you have just one pulley each.....Uhh...how do you pull up the other man if he is heavy.....Uhhh, Just kidding Clint.

jesus!

I plan to head up HOOD this week and wouldnt mind some company.......Six pack will be in the pack. Ive never climbed it, and would like some decent company, no alchoholics, because, I dont plan to give up my half of the beer.

Wanna climb Hood?..............This coming week....?
