S1W Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Hey MIIIchael, Is there a section that explains how to get stronger without actually having to do much or work hard? 'Cuz that would be sweet. Quote
RideT61 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Ordered my copy from Amazon. The "look inside" feature is now available. Quote
wayne Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Got my copy! It is such a great book, Thanks Mike! Climbing Stonger Quote
LostCamKenny Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 can you please transcribe the whole thing onto a wipeboard, take pix of them, then email it to my broke ass? ok thanx bye! Quote
LostCamKenny Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 I included info on bolting because there is not a book on it and people should know how to do it correctly learning to bolt should be done with someone who is experienced at putting them in... you can't read about it and then claim you know what you're doin Quote

Kimmo Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 so what's the advice regarding bolting? does he talk about sleeved vs wedge, stainless vs galvie, length, hole blow-out, etc etc? a rather important topic, considering the ramifications of poorly placed bolts.... i imagine the rest of the stuff stayed the same, such as the advice about campusing with taped fingers and all the weightlifting? i think much of that portion needs to be taken with a grain of salt and critical thinking skills.

Quite the opposite actually - I've only put in two bolts and bill "forced" me to do it I didn't even want to do it because I don't see the need to know how to do it since I know that I don't need to place bolts where I am climbing. But it isn't something that I'd trust any old chimp in a harness doing if all they did was read about how to do it, ya know? Quote
G-spotter Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Everyone knows that the proper way to bolt can be expressed in two words, "ground up" Quote
Hugh Conway Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 I'd buy it if there were a hardbody in a bikini on the cover. Quote

EWolfe Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) The hot yoga chick posing down not good enough for you, Hugh? Ya just can't please everyone... PICTURE FAIL! Edited November 13, 2009 by EWolfe Quote
Pete_H Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 I don't think Mike would look all that good in a bikini anyway. But if that's what you're into, Hugh, there's nothing wrong with that. Quote
Choada_Boy Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Oh. I thought you all were talking about the picture of me in the bivy section. Quote
layton Posted November 14, 2009 Author Posted November 14, 2009 Oh. I thought you all were talking about the picture of me in the bivy section. Wonder if anyone notices the "money" neckglass in that photo and thinks "WTF?" Quote
Rad Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 Got my copy. Will read soon. Plenty of Mike images for you fans. I'm guessing >500. Maybe throw some into the Sausagefest raffle? Might give you more pr Quote

Wonder if anyone notices the "money" neckglass in that photo and thinks "WTF?" I think many people will look at quite a few of the photos and think: "What the fuck?". Which is AWESOME!!! Nice job, by the way. Thanks for making some of us local sods look famous. And never forget the power of The Meaton. Quote
layton Posted November 15, 2009 Author Posted November 15, 2009 I have been made aware that the first printing has some minor - non content - related typos. I believe Amazon.com went with an older file sent in for page-setup. The second printing will be available soon. I will update this when the 2nd printing is available (should be a week). Quote
