Mar 17, 2026 Buddy Spray!Blake just released a new addition of Cascade Rock and since he will not post about it I'm going to. The new book is a huge improvement, about 100 pages longer with… View Message

Mar 11, 2024 I pulled down my well loved campus board and I wont be able to put it back up again. I have a 12 rungs of each size L, M, S, for sale. They are all in like excellent condition… View Message

Apr 18, 2022 Who has tried it? How much softer is it from the VS or VSR version? Should I expect it to fit the same as my beloved VS? View Message

Jan 1, 2021 I want to only climb locally (no more than a hour drive) this year. This may be the hardest climbing goal I have ever set. View Message

Dec 9, 2020 Street shoe I am about a 10.5 street shoe whatever that conversion is. I have a 43 in the Chimera. Fit feels great except the heel, pretty baggy there. If I were to order again… View Message

Nov 15, 2020 My buddy and I were just talking about how dialed our setup is. Base layer is thick old mattress. On top of that are mad rock pads connected with Velcro. On top of that is a bl… View Message

Oct 27, 2020 I know these just became available, but im wondering if anyone has tried the new LV version of the Drago and particularly can give a comparision of to the original. I think in… View Message

Sep 19, 2020 Very interesting, i'd give it a try View Message

Sep 12, 2020 How did you size the instinct and booster compared to the drago? View Message

Sep 9, 2020 I'd love to try this, it could be the solution for me. If the whole shoe is lower volume it may not work since I have wide duck shaped feet. I just need a smaller heel. View Message

Sep 9, 2020 I've been climbing in the drago's for over a year now and really love them but the heel does not work with my foot. I have tried several sizes of them, including my friends pai… View Message

Jul 3, 2020 Nice! View Message

Jun 9, 2020 How is that lattice setup? Is it practical for regular use? View Message

Jun 5, 2020 Cheapest and best home solution I've seen is bouldering pads with mattresses underneath them. Depending on the size of your wall you may need a lot of bouldering pads though, w… View Message

May 26, 2020 I think the old round stock attache locking carabiner was the best locker ever made for belaying/rappeling. For a while Petzl had the Attache and the Attache 3D. Then they got… View Message

May 19, 2020 I think you would need more height to have a useful +15 than you would need for a useful -15. On a slab you are really trying to stand tall, whereas on a overhand (even @ 15) y… View Message

May 11, 2020 I have installed a 2x6 that runs horizantlly along the studs half way up the backside of my wall. I used this to stand on and replace the one spinner of a T-nut I had. Worked w… View Message

May 5, 2020 I’ve never understood the need for horizontal bracing. Quality 3/4” ply will add all the stiffness you need View Message

Apr 10, 2020 Trees are living and flexible objects, I dont know if they would make a very good support for a wall. I would not use them myself, instead I would bury upright posts to use as… View Message

Mar 9, 2020 As someone who lives nearish and loves it I have to agree. Best crag in WA, easily yes! But those who hype index can overdo it at times. View Message

Jan 24, 2020 Agreed View Message

Jan 4, 2020 I’ve installed literally around 20,000 of them. It’s not pleasant but I think it’s worth the effort. View Message

Dec 12, 2019 Mikey, of all the rope you've used what would be your recommendation for micro trax work? Looking to get a big dedicated line for that, not so much hauling and other big wall t… View Message

Nov 23, 2019 Next question would be what’s your max ceiling height. A 10* wall that’s only 10’ tall will basically be a traverse wall. So that’s another factor to co… View Message

Nov 23, 2019 OP what grades do you generally climb outside? For a ARC wall I love 20* but depending on your fitness continuous climbing for 20 min on a 20* may be really hard. For reference… View Message
