i think it would be really cool of the companies and competitors to give their contributions and winnigs to charites throughout the puget sound....i mean b/c skiing is not a sport for the less fortunate, so i would think it would be awesome of everyone to donte their stuff to groups who help others....like th boys and girls club, ymca, ywca and other similar groups..... what do you think mister Life Link rep, that woud show people that climbers and skiers are really good caring people..........

~YAWN~ too bad man, that your shit aint what you wanted it to be........ i think we need to start a campagin against ford, chevrolet, mopar, honda, toyota, nissan, sony, panasonic, firestone, goodyear, dell, intel, m.s., marmot, arcteryx and ant other company in the world whom does not create perfection for the start.............. im going back to rubbing mud ans grass on my body, all these damn clothes just dont last anymore, where's my buckskin loin cloth, that thing never needs washing or any maitence at all..... neri, your arguement is kinda like what i would call stupid.......no offense, but seriously man, every complany in the world sux in one way or another... granted their pricing is high, but like you said you bought, i dont think they are brain washing anyone.....seeing kim cizma(sp) dry tooling with the dry tools gloves did not send me out to buy them....that is your weakness. and your job as a consumer is to go out and find what YOU think will work best for YOU....it is hit and miss in all markets...... have fun

matt, i actally have metoulis and aliens for doubles below .5", cause they do rock!!!!!

actually i am in a great mood, other then being at work........

i think if the reason you are getting down on BD cams is cause of their weight, then ummmmm i dont know what to tell you.........cuz i have yet come to find a situation to where i think that, "shit man this damn 1" cam wieghs 12g more then a similar peice, i better not bring it....might slow me down too much and i will die in the forcasted storm...." then if you think that the quality is crappy, then i dont know what to tell you.......granted with time the triggers wires break, but shit dont they all????? now what i got to say about bd cams, is that of all the pieces ihave used and owned i have never never ever found a cam equal to it.....with trigger action, durability, ease of cleaning and the ability to just go right in coupled with a stem length that is long enough. most people will never notice the difference in expansion range or weight of the cams, unless they are sitting around trying to find a reason that they think they suck.......and in that case they probably dont spend enough time climbing or taking care of other needs in their life.... i have yet hear an arguement to wear another cam is better, maybe close to as good, but never better...... the only detraction that i could even consider being bad would be the cost, but there are ways to overcome that.................. Black Diamond cams are the BEST!!!!! plus they are made in america, by americans..... [ 03-25-2002: Message edited by: erik ]

actually on my planet we dont use capitals or puncuation at all.......amd your language of english....is quite trivial as well.... and i dont think i need to exlpain myself..... sheesh......old people now a daze............

For example compare them to Butcher of Bagdad (at least I think thats the name: a bolt protected stemming climb.)just to their left. BoB is a very good climb steming and a cross between face holds and little jams. actually pp i did that route a couple years ago and thought much like most of his routes, that it is over praised........sheesh next thing you know someone might go bolt ddd................
