Hi, my name is Chris [Hi, Chris].
I haven't climbed in two years...but I rode Cobhill on my bike!
[Stunned silence]
Lots of shame, man. Lots of shame.
All of my nylon has exceeded that 7 year shelf life and some of my cam slings are older than some of the climbers that post to this board. Oddly, only my quickdraws are not suspect. Maybe I'll be a sporto by default this fall. Can I spray about single digit grades here?

Sent Random Precision. I had been sending a lot of my projects (this IS spray direct..) and I was stoked to climb hard, but then I sent that and it brought me and my ego back to the ground. My favorite .11 in the gorge. A masterpiece by Terry.
