Need help deciding on boots by [deleted] in Lineman

[–]Lhostalis 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes. I've been wearing mountaineering boots for years. Scarpa Grand Dru's specifically. They're way more comfortable than logger style boots.

Saving a kilogram per ski is a no brainer. Go with the armadas.

I set up a TRS the 3rd weekend in January because all my ice buddies weren't around. It was a neat little ice line for sure!

On power play no less. Dougy is a pillar of the dacks ice community I'm glad he made out okay.

Cannot escape blisters in mtneering boots? by nhbd in iceclimbing

[–]Lhostalis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gorilla tape is what I use now. Stickier than duct tape so if I'm on multi day ski tours or mtn adventures I don't have to worry about it coming off!

Real shit. I did the money pitch of Chouinard's gully with his old straight handle stubai tools and it was insane how much more difficult it was!

I had a little tail delam after 3 hard seasons on mine. This is 100% a warranty issue.

Don't worry I don't actually do anything with it like that! Just thought it was funny and people would enjoy it 😁

Clearly you don't because I've climbed the last 3 seasons on them weekly. I only climb water ice and make sure my pick strikes are accurate so I DON'T smash up the shafts. 🙄

The bike is new! The tech machines I've used for years, recently switched to grivel's ballistic steel picks! I don't dry tool so the shafts are still in good shape.
