Chockstone now has a sponsor in Rock Hardware, who provide excellent prices on climbing gear. Steve has kindly agreed to help us pay Telstra's web traffic fees, which have been growing alarmingly as Chockstone has become more popular. All of Steve's prices are below RRP, but he's also offered a number of specials.

Steve wants me to highlight his desire to talk to customers personally not just to establish good customer relations, but also to make sure people know how to use the gear they buy. You can call Steve on (03) 5441 8886, or use the link at the bottom of Chockstone's menu to see a full price list.

Lastly, I'd like to reiterate, that Chockstone has not "gone commercial". For the last year that we've been on the air the web hosting fees had been largely ignored by my work, who host this site. Unfortunately, someone added up the cost of all the traffic this site produces, compared it to Telstra's bill and presented me with the option of shutting it down, paying the bill myself, or getting sponsorship. Given the monthly amount in question, I opted for the later, and I'm hoping it will prove beneficial to all, though I'll not personally gain by it, other than having the site on-line for the foreseeable future.

So, please take advantage of Steve's personalised attention. He's a good friend, whom I've climbed with several times. He's a qualified instructor as well, so he really does know what he's talking about. He loves talking about climbing, as do we all I suspect.
