To_The_Top Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 What part of Marymoor? Say the parking lot by the climbing rock or at the climbing rock? Eastsides first pubclub in a while, maybe there will be a drink-off too (my bets on the Caveman). Sounds more like a rope up! TTT Quote
Alex Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 Marrymoor rock wall or rock wall p-lot mark yourself as a "gear swapper" by furtively walking up to everyone there and saying... " yo, got any gear? You know, gear? Capt Caveman sent me." unless, of course, you are talking to Ray in the flesh (you will recognize him as he will be the completely sober dude sitting next to a passed out AlpineK), in which case... " ..You know, gear? Fred Beckey sent me." Quote
RURP Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 This is RURP: "A lot of us climbers have tons of gear and not a lot of extra cash." Maybe it is because you spend it on a lot gear you do not need and then want to swap it! Most climbers I know are ably employed. "we could lay shit out on tarps" yah...we will all come to see that! RURP has spoken Quote
slothrop Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 Ah, another appearance by humorless RURP. Perhaps you're just jealous that nearly every piece of gear is larger than you, and you're trying to compensate for something. Quote
rodeo Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 I'm in. Tuesday the 10th, 6:00 PM, Marymoor climbing wall parking lot vicinity type area right? (--Climb on,,, Rodeo Hey uhh, that action suit, it comes with A/C right? Quote
RURP Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 This is RURP: DON'T FORGET TO BRING THE TARPS "TO LAY SHIT OUT ON"!!! - Rurp has spoken. Quote
Jens Posted September 7, 2002 Author Posted September 7, 2002 I'll be there (unless it is pouring down rain). Tuesday the 10th. I'll probably be there from about 4:30pm on. I'll be bouldering and carry my crap over to the Marymoor rock. Look for the tattered fish haulbag. I'm looking to do some trading and selling, but I don't have much money to buy stuff. Looking for: *An old thrashed down jacket or sweater. ( My expedition one is way to huge and warm.) *Used rambocomps, grade 8's or m10s or DMM's, etc. *Used holds *Old thrashed rigid friends. *Videos or books? Old back issues of summit, rockandice, or climbing? *Gloves *Any kind of stetchable pant for mountaineering (nylon or smartwool or whatever) I'll bring a typed list of stuff I'm tring to get rid of so I don't bug RURP by dumping everyting on a tarp.

thelawgoddess Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 sorry, i got lost in the thread. will anybody actually be climbing on the wall? Quote
Jens Posted September 7, 2002 Author Posted September 7, 2002 Yeah, after a day of work, I plan to boulder in between transactions. Oh and my list was stuff that I'm looking for. Quote
slothrop Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 I'd do some climbing while I'm out there, sure. I've got an old pair of tele boots (Merrell Supercomps) that I'd like to trade away... Quote
Bug Posted September 8, 2002 Posted September 8, 2002 Anyone interested in a few old dried out dung balls? Quote
russ Posted September 8, 2002 Posted September 8, 2002 Bug - are they full set 0 - 11 or all one size? Quote
Geek_the_Greek Posted September 8, 2002 Posted September 8, 2002 quote: Anyone interested in a few old dried out dung balls? Only if they're laid out on a tarp! Quote
Bug Posted September 9, 2002 Posted September 9, 2002 How about the poly pro they formed on? I think that makes them 00. Quote
rodeo Posted September 9, 2002 Posted September 9, 2002 Sorry fellas. I must catch a flight tomorrow to attend a funeral. Maybe next time. If anyone doesn't get rid of any old style (rigid) friends or strap on style crampons, hit me up later. I might just buy them from you. (--Climb on,,, Rodeo Quote
RURP Posted September 10, 2002 Posted September 10, 2002 This is RURP: This guy here looks dumb as a post. Maybe he will go to Marymoor and "shit on your tarp". RURP has spoken. Quote

Thinker Posted September 11, 2002 Posted September 11, 2002 Holy KLUSTERFUKS Batman, Marymoor Park is soccer mom HELL! I took a turn around the parking lot and sped away in disgust! What a freakin' circus....... Quote
Alex Posted September 11, 2002 Posted September 11, 2002 this was a pretty disappointing turnout. Alex and Jens and one other person (with dave burdick honorable mention) were the only (losers?) who actually brought gear to swap. TTT was there, along with random climbers, but few cc.com faces... Quote
allison Posted September 11, 2002 Posted September 11, 2002 We had a thin turnout at Pub Club Seattle this week too. Many of the usual suspects were in attendance. As usual 009 did some amusing and moderately outrageous things for our entertainment. Alex, you've got to come to one of these Seattle ones. We MUST discuss sailboat racing over beers. I beleive the term I am looking for is 'bench racing', that's what the motorcycle guys call it anyway. Quote
slothrop Posted September 14, 2002 Posted September 14, 2002 I was all set to go, but then I had to do some handholding for my sole paying customer. Ah, well. We should have a fall rope-up kinda thing, though. Quote
