Ice bouldering at LVC

Ice bouldering at LVC

We had a great day climbing and we took this bouldering opportunity to swing a few different tools. Jen and I each took two sets of ice tools, we had some on loan (next year's BD Cobras were our favorites). The new Vipers were pretty cool too. Does anyone out there want to sponsor a graduate student climber who is ready to get a new set of BD Cobras???

Cobras

Talk to Matthew Holliman - I don't think he uses his :)

Rob, don't you work?

Since it appears neither of us is working much today...here's my response. :)

We got to try the new version coming out in a few months. Pretty sweet! We had an older pair of Cobras too, but the new ones had sort of a dampened swing. I think because of the new way they are making them. Maybe someone should start a thread on how sweet the new Cobras are. I would guess that not many people have gotten to use them yet. But...just wait, they are going to be the rage.

I actually have a sh*tload of work to do ... but what can I say, I take breaks :)

Are the new Cobras you are talking about the ones that are adapted for leashless climbing ? I saw a pic of them on rc.com ...

Sounds great. I might give them a try in a few seasons, after BD gets the kinks out :)
