Huh? That's a pretty narrow range of sizes! And how fat a ski do you use in the winter?! For "steep" skiing some of the older (like a season or 2), narrower skis work well. You don't need much float on the steeps.

Has anyone ever tried Sorbothane? Runner's stores usually sell insoles made of it, but it's also available in thin sheets.

February 6th, Cinema 21. I'm planning on being there. http://www.ifcfilms.com/ifcfilms/0,7271,CAT0-3127-CAT1-4309-SHID-19906-AID-5367-CLR-red-BCLR-CC0000-,00.html

Wouldn't it just elevate the atmosphere of the party if the general public came? Of course my not being there has already raised it

The Readers guide to Finnegan's Wake is twice as long as the book itself. A quark! A quark!

Indeed! I question whether anyone has truly understood all(or any!) of Finnegan's Wake. Dubliners isn't too bad.

Argh! I'll be on an airplane. Next time.

mmmmmmmmm

Saturday morning was firm above the magic mile to mid Palmer. Ski crampon firm. Not good skiing conditions. Had to be back by 7:30 so didn't get any further.

Practically speaking the manufacturer would spec it in oz/ft for those markets, and since most retailers just parrot manufacturers numbers, the retailer would just use those.

freakin Reagan

Static ropes are usually listed as g/m or oz/foot because they are usually sold bulk, i.e by the meter/foot. Most catalogs I've seen usually compare ropes by the meter or foot though.

Back in 93 or 94? Climbing Mag had a multi-page article on the whole Lhotse controversy. Whether or not he did, he is still an awesome climber.

My partner tripped on the approach and put a crampon hole through them.

The Atkins has been available at in and out for a couple of years know. Whats really frightening is the 4x4 (yes that's 4 patties on 1 bun)

Spared no expense! Combo product catalog DVD case!

Couldn't it be argued that their are no sculptural features seperate from the "utilitarian" aspects of the hold? All way off subject, but...

So you're going to argue that a climbing hold is a "sculptural work"?

Even if he was - the designs aren't controlled in any way.

Ask Queeg or John Day.

Dude, your free to do whatever you want with that hold once you bought it. There's little to nothing patented about rock holds. Nobodies going to sue you. Yeah you should add some reinforcement - resin's brittle. Experiment. Learn something instead of just buying.

Once again Canadians get the inferior goods.

If you can wade through the sea of Japanese tourists getting their picture taken with the Hillary statue to get there.

I was thinking Aerospace Al at the minimum With a special edition Ti model that's 10g or so lighter and costs twice the price.

Stick to the NZ way - All plastic Nutella jars, from like 200g to 2.5kg (or some such variety). Every size from day trip to expedition!
