I think "yer gonna die!" takes the title for most said on MP.

Is it just me, or do real climbers wear bargain bin scraps and posers wear all the name brands?

Naw Brendan..its guys like me. Work 50 to 60 hours per week, lots of family issues (taking care of parents and kids), home chore responsibilities, etc.. we just have a little time to indulge our passion for climbing and briefly satisfy it with buying new gear, clothing, etc.. The 3 to 6 times per year we get out, we like to take pretty pictures of our new gear and clothing.

It's just you.

Boulderers wearing scraps aren't "real climbers."

I didnt think you could be a REAL boulderer unles you owned a organic chalk bag or pad.

I was paraphrasing a recent thread in (slight) mockery. I don't actually think that...I love getting new gear, I just can't help myself...
