Brentucky needs to be punched for a lot of reasons, beating up little girls for their clothing is certainly high up on that list. When he sports his manpris while carrying an umbrella to the crag to keep from getting wet while it rains, you really hope no one sees you.

Prana jeans, if I recall correctly they make two weights, both are stretchy, nice attribute for climbing, leave one pair as is and make the others, preferably the heavier weight ones long shorts that can cover your knees for OW but still offer unopposed opportunity for snake bites, the old school Patagucci baggies are also nice for exposing your nutsack at those hanging belay/hangdogging sessions...

Guilty. I always have an ATC and locker on my harness when climbing. You never know when you may have to do an emergency rap down.

ok, manpris are officially off limits.....just a quick question..out of three thousand ascents wit that biner and ATC in tow, how many emergency raps have you done on single pitch sport at the Red? Bet your belayer could toss you up whatever you needed.

One. I've had a belayer pass out on me before. (That occurance led him to get checked out and he found he had diabetes). So sure, it's a rare thing, and likely will never happen again, but it's a habit I don't mind having.

I'm just messing wiht ya Mike....all REAL sport climbers should carry an ATC , to at least rap from the anchors...those who don't are no better than the big crowds, trash throwers, and poop leavers...all are looking out for ole number one.

I usually clean routes like this anyway, so I'm not too worried about an emergency rappel.

Ooo I like this game. Let's see...

trampolining,
fishing,
flip cup,
and badminton.

....but seriously, everybody knows the more expensive (and flashy) your climbing attire, the better you climb. It's like putting racing stripes on a cheap car. DUH

Apparently no one here has climbed in daisy dukes. Definitely the best climbing attire.
