Aliens

Post by rickardodaniel »

CCH Aliens come as regular size and long. I have used other people's aliens before but never realized that the lengths could be different.

I was just wondering everyones opinion because I plan to purchase a set in the near future.

Long [u]vs[/u] Short Aliens.
What are your thoughts?

never have been able to find the long ones but the regular (short) ones are plenty flexible. Damn good pro.

only get the long ones if you have a reason for them.

the stems are so flexable that the long stems can be a pain in the ass sometimes

Sometimes they abduct you and leave a beta unit in your place so you can save the galaxy.

The gray ones seem to be the most popular.

the smaller sizes are great (orange and smaller). maybe the best on the market. but, the larger sizes are not wide enough making them very, very unstable.

rickardodaniel, If you send me a PM I'll give you my prices on some aliens and you can decide if you can afford NOT to buy them. By the way, they are great gear.
Oh man, he is messing that up. However, he is missing his left leg so that way would probably be harder for him. SCIN, just before spraying some beta for a climber doing a route the WRONG way.
