Should I use an EDK or a flat overhand?

I'm so confused.

If you wear socks, the shoes won't stink as bad. But I don't know if you wear them perpendicular to the fall forces. Whole new ballgame.

If I wear my crampons around the house to break them in, is it bad for my hardwood floors?

It is ok to TR solo with my regular ATC?

Great question, Ryan. You can toprope solo with your ATC, but only if you are leading. Refer to the thread about this for in-depth analysis.

Cool, yeah. I figure I'll just be able to grab the brake strand in the even of a fall. Thanks!

Did the socks have sentimental value?

Photos please, or they didn't exist. You could file a claim with your insurance company.

Very shrewd, John. very shrewd. You are a smooth operator, no doubt.

I have pictures of the socks but I'm to lazy to post em. They are general socks lightly used . Right and left foot . Left foot is barely used as I am right footed. I also took out student loans to buy them and I don't plan on paying em back . I figure Obama owes me .

Better not look at the socks though.
