selkirk Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 I don't mind someone being reasonable, asking to pass, and respectfully climbing through, not putting my ass in danger. Some asshole trys to blow through, clipping my pro, and being a jackass? He's going to find himself tied off to a big fat hex with a prusik Afterall this isn't France thank god Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selkirk Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Yeah, but that #10 is great for beating people with! Much less expensive and unwieldy than a cam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted May 18, 2005 Author Share Posted May 18, 2005 And the clanking sound as it knocks against your #9 is just as good as hanging a "n00b bell" around your neck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dru Posted February 26, 2006 Author Share Posted February 26, 2006 i saw this film about bachar last night, and there was a funny bit where they interview croft and he describes how he "accidentally" kicked some guy in the head on half dome while passing, while him and bachar were making the first one day link up back when. so always let peter pass or you might get a chuck norris to the dome.
