    New multicender? AC SULU GO

    I don't have any 10s right now, I've only got 12.5, 11, 9, and 8. If no one else gets around to it before the next cave festival I'll test it then, but that's at the start of may

    New multicender? AC SULU GO

    I've got mine and I like it so far. Nothing special on 11mm but it's running like a dream on 8mm ultra tech. I'm rope walking just like any other srt system. It's tending point kinda sucks, I've found my favorite way is to run my bridge up a little longer and clip the bottom of my bridge swivel...

    ISC Nessie

    I've used one, I had it way too far back on a custom adapter tho (Kinisi in small only has 2 tool carrier slots and I need both carriers). The piece itself rocks, I was borrowing the one I was using, but I've since made a new adapter that will let me use it in a more forward position, just gotta...

    Skinny rope on base anchor leg?

    Playing around with a new 8mm while cabling today. It definitely does work but it sure is fucking murder on the hands pulling in on it

    Cold weather gloves

    I get the cyanosis and rubor really obviously, my skins not as white as the hands in the pic and my fingers don't go white like that, but my cap refill goes to shit @Merle Nelson like I needed another reason to want the new hotness even worse

    Cold weather gloves

    That's what inspired the thread, its happened to me before, but not while wearing gloves. I just kinda thought it was normal

    Cold weather gloves

    Well I tried the handwarmers as suggested, and by 3pm my fingers were warm! It coincidentally was up to 50° by then tho . @Boomslang im starting to think i might be in the same boat as you. I was bundled up super well in wool and synthetic layers today, my core stayed warm (except for the hour...

    Cold weather gloves

    I've been looking at some of the heated liners since I go through a pair of leather gloves every couple months, if the handwarmers work well I might eventually move to an electric pair

    Cold weather gloves

    I'm definitely gonna give this a shot, I'm already in the full dipped kinco insulated gloves and my fingers have been painfully numb all day

    Cold weather gloves

    It's pretty late this year because it was in the 70s all November (a sign of the anthropogenic end times for sure, but I can't say I didn't enjoy it ) but the time has finally come where, even when moving around in my normal hybrid leather climbing gloves, my fingers are going numb . Anyone...

    Skinny rope on base anchor leg?

    Rope twist. We often have intermediate anchors on a single vertical section in order to keep out of waterfalls, or away from delicate formations, or to protect our skinny ropes from abrasion on the cave surfaces, so having devices that produce a twist in the rope is a no go.

    Looking for the smallest saddle (aproved by EU standards)

    I used to climb in a sentinel size one which is also an edelrid manufactured saddle, it was a bit too big for me, especially the position of the upper D's when on spikes way waaay too far forward. I've been in a size S kinisi max since early summer and it is so much more comfortable of a fit. I...
