Support your local Troll.
Kelly Vaught (AKA The Troll......Mr. Troll, sir to you) lives in Joshua Tree and is in between jobs and struggling to pay rent and take care of the basics, etc. If you can help out, that would be AWESOME!.....
How can I help The Troll!?!

1) Buy some gear he is selling
2) Send a donation to me and I will make sure he gets it.
3) Give him a big hug if and when you see him.....(ahhhh...maybe not a good idea.......scratch that plan...)

Supertopo and the climbing community has helped my family out when I was really struggling, and I appreciate all the help and support and love my family has recieved. If you feel like helping out;...please do.....
Things get tough and I think it's way cool when people reach out and help.
Anyways;....here's the stuff he has for sale. I'll take care of any/all sales and shipping stuff. Contact me on this forum, or on facebook, or at toddwgordon@gmail.com, or call (760) 366-9395 . Any $ donations can be sent to Todd Gordon P.O. Box 138 Joshua Tree, Calif. 92252

Supertopo does have it's "downside" with the pissing contests, internet brawls and tough guys;...but it also has the awesome coming together of our community to help others........here's a chance for something positive and greatly needed and appreciated. (keep the ice buckets for ALS going too!)..

Thanks.

He really should be asking $2k for that bike. I'd kinda feel like a vulture getting it for a grand given Kelly's circumstances. I feel like he could get more if he was willing to ship and put it up on pinkbike.

At this point, I just wanted to say thank you to all the supertopo climbing community friends;....I am so so very impressed with how the supertopo climbing community really comes together and comes through when a brother is in need. When it really counts;....climbers actually really care about each other, the climbing community , and helping out;.......all the bullshit squabbles and such is all put aside and the hands are extended out to help. It has happened time and time again on supertopo. Say what you wish about supertopo;....but at times like this;....supertopo comes through with flying colors......it's pretty damn amazing. Supertopo and the climbing community really saved my family's ass when things were really tough for us. This is really big for Kelly;.....Last time I talked to him on the phone...he was really at a loss for words at all the help and positive response he has recieved......
Again;...a million thanks and BRAVO to the climbing community of supertopo...........WE RULE!!!!!!!!
I am way proud to be a part of this climbing community....we truly care about each other and look after each other;.....that is a very very awesome and comforting thought.
(enough gushing;......now go rock climbing!)

Great shots, Todd. The dude looks BURL!
(I'm gonna have to check the ice tool to see if he bent the shaft with those meathooks...!)

Hey, did the troll work in landscaping at Doheny State Beach in the mid to late 70's? He looks a lot (I mean built like this guy) like a guy who used to regale us with stories of wall and ice climbing. Crazy azzed sh!t, those stories. I distinctly remember him telling me ice climbing was where it was at.

Todd, I'm kind of blown away by this. One of 2 people who put a spark in me to climb, not that I knew him all that well. He looks pretty much the same by my crappy memory.
