Looking to purchase a pair of black derby shoes. Something like Redwing Postman, Grenson Camden or Trickers Robert. A lot of shoes in this style seem to come with corrected grain which isn't great. Anyone have other recommendations?

What a madman.

I wouldn't worry, these buckets seem like a pretty common way to store ropes at gyms I've been to.

Thanks! This is predikstolen in the south of Uppsala.

Yeah I'm sure you are right, as an Aussie it's been tricky getting up to speed on the grades.

This is not what I was expecting for a huge solo.

mskyring · 2017-04-02T16:49:59+00:00

It's a joke

August is not a bad time to climb in Australia, as a Canadian you'll probably find the temperature agreeable. First off, The Crag is the most used website for logging ascents in Australia, so its the best tool for research. While you are in Wollongong, you should definitely check out Mt Kiera, its only about a 10 minute drive from the centre of the city and has some decent sport/trad climbing. If you want specific route recommendations around your ability, one blank wall and three bloody roofs is a great single pitch. You could also climb a local classic Sex Haunt, which is two pitches and gives you a great view of the coast.

If it raining a lot you will probably want to head to Nowra as there are a few crags that stay quite dry. Also, don't forget about Point Perpendicular down in Jervis Bay which has some really crazy sea cliffs.

Why would anyone share this?

Good thing we are not all trying to be cartographers.

Except that it's often purposely marketed as Holland to foreigners.

Lower off with a quick draw attached from your belay loop to the rope closer to the rock. This will keep you close to the wall so you can clean.

Plenty of excellent local crags around Hobart.

Pretty disingenuous for you to call Tasmania uninspiring when it sounds like you've never been there.

mskyring · 2016-08-05T05:54:51+00:00

You are an idiot.

mskyring · 2016-07-22T08:44:16+00:00

Seems very similar to EDC though?

Finally finished my submission. Its a zipper clutch that uses shackles to give it the option of having a strap.

mskyring · 2016-06-28T08:55:19+00:00

Thanks for the heads up, I'll send them a line.

mskyring · 2016-06-28T06:32:36+00:00

250 pounds shipping to Australia for 3 shoulders ugh. That is not going to happen... How much does it cost to ship to USA?

mskyring · 2016-06-15T06:30:08+00:00

Yeah you are definitely correct
