    Rig or chunk

    Here we will rig most of the time. I have to agree that chunking a lot of smaller pieces does leave a lot of divots to repair. The extra time spent rigging saves a lot of time in turf repair.

    Been climbing on the vasque for 8 yrs now and love them. They have been the most comfortable boot I have worked in. But with daily use all year long I get 1 to 1 1/2 years before I need a new pair. Cost 168.00 a pair.
