ashw_justin Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Alright, this has nothing to do with the Gambler, but... Bro is hiking a split-board, with what looks like some single-section, non-collapsable ski poles. Looks like you were approaching a climb (rope in the pack, helmet, etc), rather than hiking for turns, but here's the question: WTF do you do with those long-ass ski poles when you're riding the board? Stash them up your arse? Do some kinda hybrid snowboarding with poles (and would that make you a "pole rider"? ) Well, the poles are purely for beating off the mountain ladies who wait and try to ambush us on the trail. They can't resist the sight of a splitboard strapped onto such a humungous pack. You may also notice my impressively overkill BD Makos for just in case we find some waterfall ice, and the cool snowboard pack secured atop the overnight pack, so I can look extra cool on summit day. Cuz you know, there's no more to life than looking "really really really really really ridiculously good-looking." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cracked Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Actually, it looks like more than it was. But I'm still not sure why he brought TWO packs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashw_justin Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Didn't you read my post? and the cool snowboard pack secured atop the overnight pack, so I can look extra cool on summit day Actually it was all part of my approach handicap. The best part was traversing 45 degree moss over bedrock with that pack on. Man that was some CORE 'shwhacking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 man oh man what are you doing strapping your pack on your pack and missing out on the euro opportunity to put the small pack on the front so it looks like a male pregnancy simulator! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
