Oh please, BC is the wall mart of outdoor gear anyways. The best is buying a nice jacket, rag it out for a couple years, then tell em the zippers funny or that it bunches up on your gri and get a brand new one for the cost of shipping. 8)

I don't think a company that big would miss tons of gear going out at a discount they didn't authorize. I bet they get reports broken down hundreds of ways such as hour, geographical region, etc.

I'm pretty sure that signing up for something via an opt in program and getting a personal use discount code is vastly different than posting the code to an online forum. Even if all it takes is an opt in email, redistributing the code is lame and defeats the purpose. Sorry, wal-mart or not, it's still lame. Now, if it was BC's intention for this to happen, then I'll retract my statements.

34 dollars is a lot of money to chuff your way up a 5.6 trad climb.
If you climb hard enough there is already gear hanging on the routes you will do.

And by gear, you mean bolts, right. And after all the cracks get bolted, do they get pre-hung perma draws too?

no, b/c there aren't any trad lines in the red that are hard enough to warrant perma-draws. why, you ask? b/c trad climbers are fucking pussies and they never put any up.

well, as long we're making technical aspects easier just to prove trad movement isn't harder, go head and put perma draws....actually, can we do everything on toprope now? With the ropes already there with gri gri attached, just like a gym, then we could really show those traddies.
