I feel like I've been here over and over and over an over

I'm not down with the outside of EMP, but I went to see a show at the Liquid Lounge last week and the inside of the building is pretty cool, and the acoustics are great too.

compared to jakarta we are golden! Yes I agree we should start comparing ourselves to third world countries. The longer Bush stays in power the more we will have in common with the third world.

I'd be interested to see Beck try and mount Dynafit bindings using his simple instructions.

Apparently posting a link isn't as easy as it looks. As far as the test goes I scored 100% on the first try.

Rig a top rope. You get your safe, comfortable practice climb without making a messy bolt trail. Pure safety and pure movement is found on the end of a TR and most of the routes at J-tree can be TR'd. Everybody wins. Just a thought. Wrong. Top-roping by it's nature will not allow you to focus like you are forced to while on lead. The point is sport climbing allows you to learn movement and focus without scaring the shit out of you. The end result should be to transfer your ability to trad climbing. Trad is still at the top of the food chain as far as I'm concerned, but sport climbing is a good thing that you shouldn't dismiss. So jkassidy/dwayner, you told me that you think bolts are bullshit. Well have you ever rapped or belayed off a bolted anchor? I expect a yes or no answer not your typical windbag bs.

Beck is an expert skier mostly in his mind. Yes you can misuse templates, but you can also misuse Beck's simple instructions. Jigs are the shit, but who's going to fork out the dough for something you will use once every 3 to 5 years.

Mods can only ban users, and mods aren't on the user list...like you are sucker. Matt and I are equal in terms of mod power.

If you were a mod you would have known that for months.

Please site where this has happened. so you're a lacky to the man. Well what comes around goes around Lambone deserves what he got. See the above comment. In the end everyone ended up dogpiling on the bone. Got any more points Matt?

I've climbed a lot of trad face routes in Jtree, and most of them scared the shit out of me. Having routes that allow you to focus on movement is a good thing; it helps you become comfortable enough to step up to the routes that require both good technique and balls.

I'd just like to say that MattP does not represent every moderators view of CC. I like spray, angst, disfunctional behavior, etc... Keeping the route reports kind of spray free is alright, and I edit out personal bitchfests from freshiez if they have nothing to do with skiing, but I like Spray and I think if someone starts a spray attracting thread on the main board they shouldn't be shielded from the wrath they deserve.

Nazis don't live in a commune they live in a compound. Get it straight.

I've found a few conditions in the spring where ski crampons would be the shit.

She doesn't know much about chainsaw maintenance either...the chain's too loose, but I'm willing to overlook that

You're gay

There's little difference between Stihl and Husky. Stihl makes the best saw for tree climbers though...hands down 020T's rule

Check out the new Stranger cover. I'm in love

Look at the web page again. It says right at the top "She climbs like a girl...A girl monkey. All around champion climber." Face it that web site is a bunch of overmarketing bullshit. Now be a good sheep jeff and return to your stupid job, don't forget to consume what you're told you need, and don't make any waves.

Enough of this bitchfest. You want beta? I got beta. I am the owner of Rock and Ice #15 in which there is a long article about the climb. (back in the day when Rock and Ice was a good mag) They also did a lot of drugs too.

Tele skiers are the lowest scum of the earth.

Fuck you fucker

Hey guys and gals Carolyn is only here for one more night, Monday, so come on out to the Owl and Thistle for some fun tomorrow! 7ish or 8ish
