• Rigid Stem Friends

I can't tell if you're being serious. But if you are, I've got a full rack of rigid stems that I would sell you. They're in pretty nice shape.. They just never make it on my rack now that I have enough modern cams.

OR Cirque pants. The Cirque II blows (for me at least)

What changed in the new version? I was looking at snagging a pair of the II and the lites to replace my older cirques. 

USHBA nut tools.

The II's are longer and baggier especially around the bottoms. Maybe they're good for skiing but when I tried them on they seemed like a pretty bad choice for ice climbing (at least for my height/size). You can even see how much they bunch up at the bottom in this OR video: youtube.com/watch?v=AcAxnQP…

I'm not seeing them on their website. Do you have a link? Or maybe it is just too late. 

Amazon has a couple

Trango Cinch, Have 2 of them and use them often, have had no problems. I have replacements pins but have not had to replace either yet.

+1 for the Miura XX. Best shoes from LS. The best parts of both stock Miura models.

High top Five Ten Guide Tennie

Old Style regular Five Ten Guide Tennie

Five Ten Blancos

Five Ten Grandstone

See a theme here Five Ten?  Give Five Ten a year or two and they discontinue the shoe.  

I’ve got a brand new pair of high top guide tennies in sz. 10, if you’re interested. 

For those of you missing the old Petzl Attache round stock, check out the Camp Nimbus.

Just not the same, nothing out there is. I dread the day I have to retire mine, good thing I mainly use a grigri these days.
