Proof please. That's a bold call out. And hilarious if true.
Chef had a page on summitpost.org for one of the ice climbing routes he claims he climbs every week a few times (Photoshop CS, I think). On the page he posted some photos of a person climbing and labeled it as himself. Later on the real climber from the photos started a thread (don't know why they didn't handle it in private, that's a different topic) on ST about Chef using his photos. So he took down the page, saying he will replace it with own. Page is still down LOL : ( It was quite hilarious. The thread was nuked.

I hope Fixe keeps all the performance of the original as opposed to some change that makes it cheaper but worse performance. But then the price is not really an issue for me. Sure I would rather pay $50 instead of $100, but I was buying aliens back when I really was a poor student, which I'm no longer.
But if they price them too high, I'm not sure they will have enough customers like me to make a go of them.
If they do hit the market, I might stock up on them. I've learned more than once not to count on some well made piece of climbing/clothing/etc still being on the market when you need a replacement.

Look at it this way, while you are out at Pine Creek, they are sitting in their cubical-ridden existence making multi-page threads disparaging you. F*#k 'em, they're all posers anyway.
at work so getting paid to post here actually : )
So midget, what was your last fail? Do you ever finish a climb? How is the internet hating behind a fake avatar working for you?

Getting there. Led my first 5.9 before my vocation.
The real question is why can't you complete a climb, if you are such a badass climber.

Thank you. I do not think I ever offended you in any way, have no idea why you seek to sh#t on me from a fake account any opportunity you get. I respect Chef because he uses his own name while being the 'internet tyrant.' I do not seek any validation from anyone. I do not brag about anything. I do not talk up my plans. In my opinion, posting a TR is a positive thing to community (if that is what you refer to). I get a lot of ideas for own climbs from other TRs/mountain pages. In them I do not focus on myself, but usually talk about how much I loved the place in order to encourage others to visit. I think your opinion of me is screwed up because you do not know me in real life. Whatever the case is, you are not signing your rants with your name.

this thread... its weird.
not sure where all the Cheif hate comes from. he comes off like a pretty normal guy. I'm sure we've all had a crazy uncle like him, and I wouldn't for a moment think he doesn't climb. Anyway, I appreciate his work he does for access on the east side, he's far less annoying than I am sure I am lol.
Here's to good climbing for life.
off to tahquitz and suicide tomorrow to barely scratch my way up routes that were put up before my dad was an itch in my grandpas ballsac, all with sticky rubber and cams. God I love this 'sport.'
:D

Hey gang, I was not aware of the bad blood between some folks here. I'm not trying to fan any flames. I do think its funny as hell that somebody posted pics of himself climbing some stout ice and its turns out to be a fake or another climber. That is hilarious! Not here to bash Chief personally at all. Sorry if it sounded otherwise.

If they can get close to $75 they'll do fine. More than that and they might struggle. Totems Cams seem to be doing ok (they opened a US distribution spot) and they're going for $80 a pop.
