Critty-- degrees celcius or farenheit?-----Yes. Because 25-30 C is so common in the winter.

No catch...just a mystery. I wonder if it has something to do with the single entry point? Plus it's a little heavier than other comparable tents...

Right @ 5 pounds...

Screw on "crimps" are smaller holds that are used to build strength. Most clubhouse/jungle gyms use holds called "juggs". They are a lot bigger and easier to wrap your hand around. Juggs would probably be better for a five year old, unless you wish do develop a serious climber. (here are some nice mini-jugs from metolius http://www.backcountry.com/store/MET0253/Metolius-Mini-Jug-Hold-Set-5-Pack.html

The iPhone does have Bluetooth. But if you did that, nobody would see you using your iPhone.

Thule's fitment guide is hard to get answers on. You'll probably have to e-mail them for a good answer. Use this address to ask, and they will answer by e-mail.http://thule.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/thule.cfg/php/enduser/ask.php?p_sid=qvUS2Hjj&p_accessibility=0&p_redirect=&p_lva=&p_sp=&p_li=

I believe it is because it is not grounded and has no surge protector. In north America, we have 60Hz AC and most of the rest of the world uses 50Hz AC. This can mess with some electronics.

It looks a little big to be used as a carry-on. Most carry-on is supposed to be around 22"x14"x9". But I have seen some strange things brought on-board. It kinda' depends on who is working and how crowded the plane is. (We got married in Hawaii, and my wife brought her wedding gown on along with our two allowable carry-ons. The plane was nearly empty, and the flight crew was all women that understood her problem)

It is supposed to be tan. I looks like they are out of the other colors.

Yes. And if it didn't, Backcountry.com has a great return policy.

The hardest part is probably removing the old aerator on the faucet. Sometimes you need a pliers to start it turning. Then simply screw on the adapter. (Don't forget you also need the filter elements)

The Tech Specs say max burn time is 120 hours. Max usually means they have it on the lowest setting to get the longest time. The "boost" setting only lasts for 20 seconds, so if you continuously use the "boost" I am sure the battery life would be significantly shorter.

Go to the top of this page and click on Order Status. Then click on the return link and choose the item to be returned to get your RMA number. It will then give you instructions as to how and where to ship it.

No, they're both dynamic, it's just your preference. No difference at all except color. The red rope is for people that like red ropes. The blue rope is for people that don't want a red rope.

Padded shoulder AND waist straps. You could schlep this anywhere.yep dis dose

The sizing chart is just below the pull down menu. That is probably your best bet to figure out which one is right for you. Just remember that kids are shaped like kids, and women are shaped like women. A women's harness is built to fit your hips, waist and legs properly.

It looks like only L is left..try to chat with a BC Gearhead to be sure.Check back often. They could be out of stock right now.

The Momentum AL is designed toward the men. The Primrose is similar, but designed for women.

All the straps on this harness are doubled back automatically. One thing to watch for is that they are tightened properly, since a lot of people forget to check that. I've also found that these get tangled easily.-----The leg loops are doubled back already, but you do have to double back the waist buckle yourself. This is the Momentum AL (adjustable leg) not the Momentum SA (speed adjust)

Another website says "Fit head circumferences of 49 to 57 cm (19.3 to 22.4 in.)" But I still like the old "He'll grow into it" line.

It is a one size fits all type harness, but Petzl's website says 23.5-39.7 inches waist. Up to 26.4 inches leg loops.

LegsXS 17-19in (43-48cm) S 18.5-20.5in (47-52cm) M 20.5-23in (52-59cm)L 22.5-25in (57-64cm)

As your climbing career progresses, you'll find that most climbers avoid walking as much as possible. That said, this harness should be fine for walking. I wear a Black Diamond Chaos and never had a problem with chafing.----I own a Momentum AL, and have had no discomfort while wearing this harness. I am pretty lazy so I don't even take it off on the hike from one crag to the next. AL means Adjustable Leg, so you can loosen these if they give you a problem while walking. Just snug them up before you climb again.

The gate clearance is just under an inch. It's hard to tell for sure without knowing more about you application and the dimensions of the piece of metal, but you might want to look into the Omega Pacific Jake (it has a diagonal opening gate that let's it fit a lot of gear that other biners won't take).Yes. It will fit. I tried it on a piece that is just over an inch wide and nearly a quarter inch thick. It fits through the gate without problem.

personally, I would go with the 2. If he decides to climb in the cold, it will be able to adjust larger so he could still wear a beanie under the helmet. But it will also adjust smaller if he decides to shave his head for the summer.

If it's not in the pulldown menu, you can't get it.But check back often, they might just be out of stock.

Not sure how it's attached but probably more than hopes and dreams, This chair can hold up to 290 lbs. ...that's sad. I was told it was hopes and dreams.

Yes, it folds up into the following dimensions: 91.4 x 66 x 20.3cmThe chair weighs 9072 grams, or 20 lbs.Or if you live in the good ole U S of A it is 20 pounds (9072g) and folds up to 36"x26"x8" inches(3foot by 2foot 2inches by 8 inches)

Yes. It appears to be a rectangle and it seems to be very flexible in its use. It is recommended for use with their hammock, but it would probably be great for other things. (they want you to buy the hammock to go with it)

some UIAA certified and ANSI certified helmets are certified under CE en12492 (like this one) as in the case of many Petzl sport and commercial helmets. This makes it seem as though they are compatible. But I do not work for UIAA or ANSI (or OSHA). There are slight differences in testing (8kn vs 10kn) and my understanding is that if it is certified for the workplace then it is safe for the workplace, but not vice versa.So my answer is a definite NO. Safety is important. Do not mix work and play. My quickdraws are not going to be used to tie down ladders, and I will not use my rope to tie down furniture in a truck. I will only use what is certified for use at work while I'm at work. Petzl does sell some ANSI certified helmets (the Vertex line) that have all the nice features of climbing helmets. You should be safe there. (I'm not liable for your safety)

No the hipbelt is not removable.

Give them options everywhere, and all over the place. They are creative. Not enough, add more. Too many, unbolt a few. Change it up every now and then. Give them a challenge. Make those little brains work. Hand holds make great foot holds, but not vice versa.If you want something more like climbing a real wall check out a local climbing gym to get a better idea.

As I understand, it is the same chalk which is dyed so it blends in better with the rock. It is considered "eco" because it comes in a ball, and the ball causes you use less chalk because you only get chalk on the parts of the hand it touches. You also waste a lot less when you accidentally drop your bag. (no more white piles at the crag)

That is truly a matter of opinion. The Zion is bigger at the expense of 1lb 1oz if weight is a real concern to you. But the Zion is also $45 cheaper. I like Metolius, but I like Black Diamond more. That is only my opinion. But the belay seat sells it for me. Go BDBTW you called it a pack, and there are much better backpacks out there. This is mainly a haul bag with the convenience of straps.

I would not. The suspension system would continuously be in the way. And being $650, I could probably rent something for less that would be more appropriate for the job.

The axle strength is listed on Wild Country's website at 15kn (3,360 pounds of force)

I believe what it means is there is an assortment of small hand holds, and small foot jibs. This is so a climber can train harder while at home. To the small hand of a child it might be huge, while it is probably a three finger crimp for me. Small foot jibs will make you concentrate on foot work. They seem to be pretty small because they are all screw on's.

It appears that there is no rope tarp.

This is a pretty standard size to have, and a very popular pad. It'll only stick up a few inches above your head when you walk, and probably a few inches out each side. Very little inconvenience....there is also a handle on the side so you can carry it like a large piece of luggage. Also, it is the right size to sit on (and put on your climbing shoes of choice) while it is still closed.

It's kind of a sea green, and the photo has weird reflections. It's green though, don't you worry....they match the colors of the Camalots so they're easier to find. Same green.

Size 28.25" x 6.9" (718 mm x 175 mm)

Yes, the Boardroom is now back in stock. And no, it does not work with other tents.This zips to inside the exterior of the BoardRoom as a covered porch, or for bug protection within the existing space.

Okay, I found the answer myself...Yes it has leather. It says "metal free" which I imagine means the heavy metals that are used in the tanning process. Conventional tanning uses, among other things, chromium, a heavy metal that has been linked to cancer and, once it is in water courses, is difficult to clean up. (not green)

glad you found the chartthe chart is just below the options. It has been my experience with Black Diamond harnesses that you want to measure over the clothes you will be climbing in. If you find a number that is between two sizes (30 s/m or 33 m/l), go with the larger size range in case you wish to add layers later. (If you measure 33, go with a large)

I have had a pair of the Evolv Defy's for about a year, and I now climb at least once a week in a gym. I've learned a lot in these shoes, and have had no problems with them. My street shoes/flipflops are size 11, and I got these in 11 also. Perfect for me. To get more aggressive, my next pair will be a half size smaller.Hope it helps,Matt T

Dry ropes are more aimed at mountaineering or ice climbing where they could be dragged through ice and snow without being affected. A wet rope gets heavy fast, and they lose integrity.As I understand it, a dry treated rope will also help keep dirt out of the fibers which should help it last a little longer. (but you should keep your rope out of the dirt anyways)I have also heard that it can make the rope a bit "slicker" which would help it slide through the quick draws more easily while sport/trad climbing.hope it helps
