Advantages: Cheap, relativly light Disadvantages: Leash comes off
...Hi,
Having doing hillwalking and low grade rock climbing for a number of years i though i would take the plunge into winter walking. Last year i bought myself a pair of Grivel G10 crampons and the above axe.
The axe is 60cm in length with a wrist lensh on the shaft. The axe head is study and joined to shaft with an eyelet rivet, the same as most axes of this type. The shaft of the axe sounds hollow giving it it's light weight. This does not mean that it is weak, as I used it once as as a hanhold, jaming the axe horizontal across the top of two boulders and hauling myself up on it, the shaft did not bend and their is no sign of cracking.
The shaft appears to have a protective coating on it that also allows for extera grip by having loads of small raised bubbles on it.
The head of the axe, is quit tough, and has not been disfigured...

...Don't get me wrong i love k-swiss shoes, its just that they're so expensive. This pair cost about £75, slightly above my price range (by about £40). The trainers are comfortable, stylish and supportive. They lack in grip though, and i found that they wore down at the front by the toes, a lot quicker then nike shoes do. If i had to chose it would be nike becasue its got everything k-swiss has at more reasonable prices. However, when you buy this product you know you've bought a good trainer, if you player two or three times a week. i would not recommend it to players who play at least threee times a week....

We have been thinking of buying such type of fridge. What I like realy, in addition to energy saving, was the steel color that suited well before any colour background and that could even be placed in your living room. The only problem was its height as... more
