found a locking biner before the traverse of wipe out. seems someone had bailed off it. looks pretty new. I have it if you want it back... (and are willing to admit that you are a blouse for not comitting to the slighly run out bit ;) )

That's been there for ages... Don't know whose it was, but it was nice if you use wipeout as a "harder warmup". The traverse has been wet for 6 months or so, too, so it has been nice to just do the pumpy bottom bit, and skip the wet traverse.

Hmm, DMM locking revolver, brand new (heres hoping) and yeah, I drank 1.5 litres of Logan Brae Apple Juice (open weekends, shipley Rd) for the send and completely exploded at the traverse, I was wearing a pair of North Sydney Bears footy shorts and it was all down the inside of my thighs. Washed up in the creek well.

Jesus, that's grim! I must say, I've never even come close to (literally) crapping my dacks while climbing. Is this a common occurrence amongst chocky folk? Did you do some more pitches after the event?

I think this stuff happens more often than you'd imagine.

One of my mates was doing an all day alpine ramble in the Rockies and made a 'tactical error' a few pitches in. Apparently he tried to lighten the mood by ripping a big fart at the belay, but he......followed through. As the story goes, the belay change overs were super efficient for the rest of the day as his partners couldn't bear to be within 5m of him.

Don't believe him. It clearly happened, he's just trying to recover the morning after now he realises the consequences of his accidentally frank and honest post.

Note to you all serious chockstoners be wary, very wary, of any cheap deals on the for sale thread of otherwise near new harnesses - you may get more remnants of the original owner than what you expected.
