If you havent climbed for long, youre a dumb rookie, and you've climbed for a long time, you're an old fuddy duddy.It's not so much what is written, even if incorrect, but the attitude and tone in the writing. To say nothing of the butt-hurt defensiveness when called out on being incorrect. |

Sometimes I have to go to the bathroom. And some of the posts are not meant to be "funny." And thanks for defending our resident troll, Elena/Hobo Greg/Yeitti. |

Frank gives a lot of good advice on top of pointing out the dumbasses. You're still a teenager. Thought you all never leave your smartphones? |

Thought you all never leave your smartphones?Sure he gives some good advice but a lot of it is pretty useless. When he tries to be funny it just never is and being retired is no excuse to be on here all time. Also I wouldn't know about the smartphone thing as I dont own one |

I don't need an excuse to be on this website frequently or feel bad about it. Are you jealous I'm retired? Try working some day and you may appreciate retirement. |

Try working some day and you may appreciate retirement.why would I ever be jealous of a retired old man who apparently spends most of his time on internet forums and never actually goes climbing??? When you're dying i'll still be running around enjoying my life LOL |

It's very marginal. It's right on the edge of what I would consider chop-worthy. If it was my rope I would probably side on chopping it. My main consern would be that if you were rappelling with it, your device could get hung up on the damaged section and desheath the rope. I've had ropes desheath on me on a few occasions, and typically the wear on the rope wasent much worse than what's seen in the photos. |
