New device from ISC
I took one out this morning and tried it SRS on 7 different ropes (Drenaline, Vega, Blue Moon, Blaze, KMII, 1.5 mm Blue 32, and 1.7mm Blue 32).

And here are 3 pairs of Klein tree spurs that have good gaffs, but need better pads. They are $45.00 each or $120 for all three. It is hard to tell in the picture, but one of these is a "mini-me" that has the shaft shortened so it can be shortened way up for small climbers. We did that so we...
