plexus Posted August 25, 2002 Posted August 25, 2002 Went to local gear shop today to replace gear either lost or mistakenly placed in my friend's pack down at Yosemite last week. For BD #10-13 nuts, oval rack biner and a new QD that bounced down from two pitches up Cathedral Peak, I spent $54!!! Yikes!! Anyways tried to put off getting the nuts but those are the most used pieces on my rack, expecially No. 10 and 11. I seem to always use my No. 6 and my No. 1 Trango cam. Curious what everybody else's most precious pieces on their racks. DAF, is yours a golden quickdraw? Quote
slothrop Posted August 25, 2002 Posted August 25, 2002 My yellow Alien is the most expensive piece on my rack, and one I place most every pitch. Quote

Curious what everybody else's most precious pieces on their racks. DAF, is yours a golden quickdraw? First of all, friend, it's spelled "DFA". And since the Doctor replaced his rather old and worked assortment of draws a while back with 12 identical ones (plus two for the anchors), the rack has become a communist utopia, and no piece gets any more use than any other. Isn't that sweet? Quote
plexus Posted August 25, 2002 Author Posted August 25, 2002 Slothrop, Just placed my blue Alien yesterday for the first time. Two friends had found placements for it before I had. Nice little piece Quote
fleblebleb Posted August 25, 2002 Posted August 25, 2002 Belay biner + reverso. Not fancy stuff, just in constant use... Quote
Lambone Posted August 25, 2002 Posted August 25, 2002 Although the Aliens are priceless and irreplaceable... I just love the feeling of a nice .75 camolot stuffed in a crack above a long runout. Quote
Off_White Posted August 25, 2002 Posted August 25, 2002 .5 tricam 5" tube chock stick clip that should cover the gamut.... Quote
johnny Posted August 26, 2002 Posted August 26, 2002 A blue TCU...It seems to go in every pitch I climb out here, thats why I carry 2!!! Quote
Figger_Eight Posted August 26, 2002 Posted August 26, 2002 Red Camalot Tube of horsecock. Not necessarily in that order. Quote
jkrueger Posted August 26, 2002 Posted August 26, 2002 The red camalot, followed by the red alien. But everyone knows it's a good idea to have a full set of nuts with you at all times. Quote
scot'teryx Posted August 27, 2002 Posted August 27, 2002 #13 Stopper (almost had to leave it behind this weekend) #2 Camalot Metoulis adjustable daisy Not necessarily in that order Quote
