dryad Posted July 22, 2003 Posted July 22, 2003 Just want to give a to the salesguy who helped me out with pack shopping the other day. I tried on a few, none of them fit right, and he said, "None of these packs fit you, don't buy any of them, come back some other time". Real integrity there to not try to sell me something that wasn't really right. Quote
Skip_M._Kliphiem Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 Yep, and then there's the sales guy who casually mentions "I'm a climbing guide" every time he helps me out. Is he trying to impress me or do I look that clueless. Quote

Distel32 Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 so I went in to trade in an old crappy pair of shoes, and found a brand new pair of dragons my size for only 90!? After the trade in and then the beautiful young woman gave me an extra discount (maybe on accident) they only cost me $53. Â Must give props to a store where I can get $145 shoes for 53. Quote

Pencil_Pusher Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 I went there today and got one of those golite packs. They had these Trek ones on sale for practically half-price, turns out they were either sample or "pre-production" models. I don't really know what the difference is except $70 which sounded good to me. The guy helping me out, Michael, was real nice and informative. Turns out they're getting rid of the Gust pack for some reason or other, so that price is now $70 too. Even the small ones were $35... Anyhow, thumbs up to 2nd Ascent and their friendly service. Of the packs, the Gust is a laundry bag with two shoulder straps. I like simple, but that was a little too. I'm not sure how this big of pack will work without a frame though I have religiously used a smaller frameless pack for a while. I repaired it using dental floss to sew with, which has held up quite nicely over time... Â Quote

Take a piece of closed cell foam pad and roll it.. drop it in... and shazam... youve got some form to the pack. Pack light good brother.. Quote
