Do trad climbers have a lot of gear...

...because when they put it all on their harness, it makes them feel like they are wearing a skirt?

don't know about a skirt but the wieght makes your harness slip down so you feel like one of those skate board punks with thier boxers showing.

That's not a picture of a real trad climber, the gear's all new, hardly a scratch on it and it all matches. Poser!

Nope, I think that is what most "traddies" gear looks like. Plus, they can sell it online as "Never taken a fall".
