KubeK Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 Hi, I start to train rock climbing a feew monts ago , ist a great sport and You know it, but it is expensive sport too, If anybody have some free gear ( carabiners, belay tool, or everything else ) pleas help me. Cost of a new gear it's to much for me. Thanks! My mail is : mbeze@interia.pl Quote
Bill_Simpkins Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 Rock climbing can be a big struggle and sometimes a lot of suffering is involved, just like life. Rock climbing also takes a lot of hard work, just like life. If you don't have the motivation to go earn some extra cash to buy the gear, I doubt your cut out to be a climber. Quote
willstrickland Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 Hello, I start to go work few year ago. I earn dollar for climbing of rock equips. This good plan for you also. Quote
Bill_Simpkins Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 His email address suggests Poland. Quote
KubeK Posted November 17, 2004 Author Posted November 17, 2004 Yes Im from Poland. I know that life is hard and I should earn money by my self but sometimes it's imposible for meny reasons. Users of this forum are climbers, so they have knowledge,they know how fascinating is climbing. - thas why Im asking You for help. A day of working ( simple work for student ) ist about 50 zł ( 14 $ ),ist only one carrabinerr. By the way, specjaly for user called "Gripped" : My english isn't good, but it isn't a topic for forum "Gripped" Quote
specialed Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 I'll trade you some carabiners for some hot Poland bitches. Quote
Dru Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 I'll trade you some carabiners for some hot Polish man sausage Quote
Dru Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 Messner said that after Antarctica "he had done all 3 Poles" I've got this picture in my head: Reinhold wearing a sheep costume Quote
Szyjakowski Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 I'll trade you some carabiners for some hot Poland bitches. now that seems like an unfair trade. polish gals are at least worth a few cams. Quote
Bill_Simpkins Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 It would probably cost more than a caribiner to ship a carabiner to Poland. Quote
shapp Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 I thought that all chech and polish climbers are so badass that they don't need any gear and that they solo everything? Quote
KubeK Posted November 20, 2004 Author Posted November 20, 2004 It patetic, My post is only a topic for jokes. All situation shows what persons You are. Look at users like : shapp,szyjakowski,dru,specialed - They stend at the front of a mirror and see only a realy f...up guy. Some of the peoples have money , and some of them don't - its no funny , and I hope that all of You someday will be in need of help. Quote
Dru Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 what makes you special? why should i give you climbing gear when i can give it to some sherpa that makes 1/10 of what you do? Quote
Rafael_H Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Dru, have you sent sherpas any gear or money? Just wondering... KubeK, it is true though that regular folk here will not be able to ship gear. I send things to my mom in Moscow, and it is very expensive. Gear is heavy. I am curious what others do around you. It can't be that only sponsored ones climb. Even then they'd have to learn somehow. So share the stories. My friend said that in Crimea they used to use tight fitting rubber overbooties (galosha) for rock shoes. Quote
AlpineK Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 I have extra gear. I'd be happy to give it away to a worthy cause, but I guess I'm too self centered to pay for shipping. Sorry. Quote
KubeK Posted November 20, 2004 Author Posted November 20, 2004 Its ok if someone can't halp me its ok , if someone don't have money to help me its ok, but if someone leafing at me because I as for help,that is meean No body must help me, its only a "asking for help" I know that a carab cost 15 $ and shipment cost a 20 $. My post was only a asking for help. Quote
Dru Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Dru, have you sent sherpas any gear or money? Just wondering... I sent my old rack to Cuba. Quote
KubeK Posted November 20, 2004 Author Posted November 20, 2004 When I add my post it was a simple ask,but now,time is running and I see that most of you use my post for jokes,for chat. If someone read all the posts that You wrote Hi will see what a kind off a persons We ( all of as ) are. I must tell You that the one Man wrote to me a e-mail and offered a help, that is good soul. He don't joke,He don't tell ,me that the carabineer cost more than a shipment,He only ask do I really need a climbing gear. I don't begging You for help,I don't forced You to helping me. I don't know do the Man who helped me wont to wrote about him,and his friend,but They are really best , and kindest persons in climbing world. Thank You for Your posts even these with teh jokes. Thans, See Ya Quote
SquirrelE1 Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 I agree with you Kubek...People tend to make fun of what is different. It's sad but it's true. If we could just take the time to listen and learn...The world would be a different place. Quote
nalo Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 i'm sorry, but it would only cost about $1.50 to drop a carribiner in a bubble mailer and send it off... Quote
