    TC pro fit issues.

    in Rock Climbing Forum

    So, got a pair of TC pros. Wondering if they are the right size.. because they are actually comfy. I typically wear a 41.5 muira vs., have a size 9 mythos (wished they were 1/2 size smaller) and here I have a 42 and a 41.5 tc pro.

     

    So, how are you all fitting these? Do they stretch... like the mocassym? (wear a 9.5 in those)

    the 42, my little toes feel a bit cramped for space, big toe is mostly flat.

    41.5 big toe is slightly curled, little toes cramped for space.

    Any insight?

     

    Road tripping this AUG/SEPT?

    Hey Everybody,

     

    So, here's the dealio. I'm mere weeks away from finishing anesthesia school here in Ohio and I'm going to have a month or more to go climbing before I have to tell my job that I "want" to start working. I'm planning on making a schlep out to the west coast and I am looking for some climbing partners I could make contact with or people who know people, who knows some dude that climbs, etc...

     

    Some things about me:

    I'm 30. half dead, heh.

    I have reasonable fitness, and am in the process of kicking that up a notch this summer... therefore, cool, moderate alpine objectives could be a real possibility (especially Beckey routes in the N. Cascades).

     

    I have and will be bringing my own gear/car/etc...

    I'm not broke and can buy beer. I'll be budgeting heavily for it.

     

    I have some Alpine experience (Mt. Baker; attempt on Success Cleaver, Mt. Rainier; Pinnacle Gully, Mt. Washington.

    Not a red river sport weenie (no offense to those who are), and have led gear protected routes up to 11b before. My realistic climbing ability is probably more like 10b-d after sitting on my ass in the OR for Two years straight. With that said, I'm really good at being really cold for a really long time.

     

    I'm looking to do some seriously fun climbing this trip, have a blast, and meet some cool folks, do some cool stuff.

     

    Anybody down for some adventuring late Aug/Sept., holler at me.

    So, I've been to WA, and I've fallen in love with the summers and the mountains there... But, there's another "lady".

    Let's call her Colorado, not Colo"RAD"o. Anywho, I'm wanting to push my alpine rock climbing, ice, and overall ability year round... Here's the question: If you had to do it all over again, where would you move to??

    Here's my anectodtal experience; Late january running to get to the verizon store to replace my phone before they closed. Turning a corner in the parking lot I slipped on black ice. Wham, down! Anywho, ripped a big fucking gash in my pants, bleeding like a stuck pig I freaked because I just got the pullover. Looked at my throbbing elbow, because I knew I smacked on the asphalt, and there was one small imperceptible snag on the thing. That's it. I landed pretty square on my side I think it was a pretty even force distribution with some sliding involved. I would and will buy another. I love it.
