thelawgoddess Posted October 26, 2004 Posted October 26, 2004 i will probably go. the other times i've been i've had fun.
ken4ord Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 It was pretty fun way to kill an afternoon. I got to try out three different leashless set ups. At first I wasn't sold on them, then when I started freaking around with them, matching hands, working in rests, swapping hands, I had fun with them. I would probably consider buying a leashless set up next time I buy tools. LaSportiva didn't get any boots there this time, but a Montrail guy showed up didn't get to try their boots out. They didn't have a good selection of crampons, I was sort of bummed about that because I am in the market for a new pair. The comp was fun, they made the expert climb much harder than last year. The only person to make it to the top was Will Gadd. Only one dude got past the roof most of us just were flailing below it. I guess they didn't have as much free booty as last year from what I heard, still handed out a pack, screw, headlamp, v-thread tool (I think I want to get one of those things looked real handy). The slide show mainly a lot of Alpental shots, and Canadian Rockies. I took my friend who was visiting from the East Coast to it, it was his first time freaking around with tool, he had a blast. Got brew and food with Danelle and Eddie afterwards. All in all a good time.
