I'm particularly fond of my Bingo's Booze Muffler.
When I started using that my climbing improved from 5.6d+ to almost 5.14-. Well... maybe only in conversation but I digress....

The man, the myth, the legend has a way with words that's for sure...
From the snowboarding page:
note: the Crypts have been a real ball-ache to get produced. Email us for the next production date. It could be years, so plan ahead.
Well you finally did it - You've shelled out some monster dough for a Triple A-Sym, Extra Jingomo, Rotated Quadratic Sidecut, Epoxy "Big Air" Matrix, with the special litho of yourself Buck Naked on the base. Now don't be a fool and just huck this jewel into the back of your pickup. Land it in a FISH Snowboard Crypt for the finest in down-time slumber for your stick.
litho of.... bwwwwwwwwwwaaahaaaahaaa!!!!!!1111111169!

When Russ was here in the valley climbing while on YOSAR the place was an absolute riot.
Now it's bland as hell ......

Russ,
That Extenze powder you sold me doesn't seem to work. I keep rubbing it in and rubbing it in and I just get raw.
I'm going back to Crisco for my performance enhancement.

Peter Haan - that art you posted is great,
I'm hanging it on my wall :-)
great comments everyone!
here's some notes for niche manufacturing.
this is formula, ok? thoery, nothing more:
for niche players, the ideal is one product,
or one service - hold on to that, work backwards
from there.
the bane of small scale manufacturing is the
number of SKU's - total.
identify the 20% that does 80% percent
and ramp up to meet that demand.
best of luck to Russ and Sooze,
FISH and Wide Fetish...
our climbing world would not
be as fun, nor as diverse, without.
cheers everyone,
have fun and
climb safe
Ray

I kinda like the guy because he's a degenerate gambler like I am.
Oh, also because he's not a commie pinko.
He also does a mean impression of Phillip moaner.

How many of you guys have orders from Fish that you're waiting for? If you're in a hurry, or think Russ should be in a hurry, go to http://www.fishproducts.com/, scroll to the bottom of the page, and click on "Send Russ a beer". It may be a more effective tactic.

now that you mention it.... I do.
I want to use my new product as a sled. But since I live in sunny Tucson and doubt I'll see snow any time soon soI'm in no rush (and told him "whenever" on the need by: date).
Hopefully soon I'll have a portaledge on order - along with a rain fly that leaks like a sieve and I'll die under unless I have a bivy sack.
But as far as buying russ a beer goes, $2 gets you off lucky. Last time I passed through there my beer bill ran about $125 (not kidding). Though... Blitzo was involved.
