boatskiclimbsail Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 Hola everybody, my ice climbing motivation has been winding down in years past, and it's time to pass the torch (and the gear!) along. I'm selling my tele boots, my good axes and a bushelfull of screws. Here is some info for ya: Boots: Merrill SuperComp, size 10.5 Leather with a plastic ankle cuff Three ratchet buckles, rubber toe buckle and a powerstrap Bright, clean vibram soles Pinholes clean and sharp These boots will let you feel your skis much more than a solid plastic boot. Can't free your mind if your feet are in a plastic prison ;o) $120, will throw in a brand new pair of Riva-Zs with risers and climbing bars for $20. Axes: 2002 BD Cobras (carbon fiber clearance shafts) Both hammers "Laser" picks (modified and tuned) No leashes $350/pair Screws: Turbo express screws (coffee grinder knobs) Well cared for, all are sharp, no rust I retire screws after a fall, none have been fallen on Lots and lots in 10, 15 and 19cm $30/ea If you don't like the prices, making me an offer you do like will be far more constructive than whining. No I won't sell you both tools and 8 screws for $200. I will also not convince you that this gear is right for you. If you don't know what it is, look it up or move on. I will happily ship anywhere you like as long as you pay the $5 it will cost me to send an insured PM package. I don't want to trade for the jacket you bought and don't like anymore. I have my own jacket. No ice climbing or tele lessons unless you are cute (and preferably female). I love paypal. If happy fun ball begins to smoke, seek shelter and cover head. PM for pics if you don't know what ice screws look like. Please be sarcastic when replying. Thanks for looking! Quote
robert_Nielsen Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 So, are your adventures turning towards the salt water? sea or ski, its an age old dilemma, though you could combine the activites, like shackleton... Luck to you on your sales, and adventures. Looke well to every step, one hand for the ship cheers, bob Quote
thin_air_aaron Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 Interested in some screws... check your PMs. Quote
boatskiclimbsail Posted November 9, 2005 Author Posted November 9, 2005 Salt water, fluffy frozen water, a little bit of everything I have some other things for sale as well, pics are up at: "Kbay". I will be taking pictures of the axes and screws for those that asked about them this evening and posting tomorrow afternoon. Please keep in touch. Thanks! Quote
boatskiclimbsail Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 Pics of axes and screws are up on my website (same link). I also added some aid stuff, a solo-aid and an unused premo bag hauling pulley/jammer. A local guy bought 8 screws last night with cash, all that's left of what I'm selling is online. Email moyleskd at yahoo for quicker service. Thanks for looking! Quote
dbb Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 how did you attach those aftermarket knobs to your screws? Are they the OP knobs grometed on? Quote
boatskiclimbsail Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 They are the OP aftermarket grinder knobs, you have to file them out a little bit to make them fit the BD hanger (thicker than the OP), then drill a small hole and use the correspondingly sized roll pin. Quote
boatskiclimbsail Posted November 15, 2005 Author Posted November 15, 2005 Screws are all gone, thanks to all who were timely in completing their transactions. Still have the tele boots, a pair of Scarpa aid boots, a nice custom chalk pot, a solo-aid (with less than 30 pitches on it), and an oldie but a goodie frame pack. Good deals folks! Don't let them pass you by! Quote
