Trying to learn about bolts, but the snark is appreciated along with your knowledge
If you are civic minded you will replace them with quality SS hardware.
If not, its pointless internet wankage. :)
I'm interested in helping maintain fixed equipment at this crag since there isn't anyone else who will due to the location. The logistics of it I'll leave to next season at least, though. I was just more curious about the technical details, I've gone through lots of the ASCA info but was just looking for some identification help
The issue fundamentally is that you have to decide for yourself if you are comfortable clipping any fixed pro, and if not, ideally are motivated to replace it.
But we all have had to clip tons of mank over the years having nothing better at hand. Some bolts have failed that have looked perfectly fine on the outside. Others prove difficult to remove despite looking sketch af from the outside.
So many cry about some bad bolts but aren't willing to do anything to anything about it. The ideal is that one takes ownership for making sure the next guy has something better. Good on ya' for thinking about the future needs of this crag.
