brian:the only thing salamanizer/chad is
dropping is his foot in the ass of his
fellow climbers.he has no spine,his george w.decider style sucks.
kasang: youre precious cheeseball chains and one bolt are gone!
1 bolt and one pin are left(foothill boys coudnt patch
the hole this time).
thanks for cleaning fandango dude! i agree a double standard has been set(my sh#t is stuff and your stuff is shit!)
i dissagree with you on this: hospital corner has
a problem...
caughtinside:you said rappelling fandango is sad
and unnessesary and sets a bad example for neophyte
trad climbers. why? isnt rappelling one of the many
skills a climber should have? my case in point,
i went to do a retro bolted hospital corner,
and there was a party
of three followed closely by a party of two.
two of the people had never rappelled before. anyway
there was a lot of yelling and screaming followed
by some crying.now this was really sad and unnessesary.
our plans plans changed and we did travellers,
rappelled fandango and were back at the base of hospital corner
just in time for them to pull there ropes down.
i didnt yell obcenities at them as salamaizer/chad
would have. i just gave them some rappelling tips.
shoudnt these neophyte trad climbers be made to walk off?
or is rappelling ok over here on the gym side of the crag
but not over there on the non gym side of the crag(east wall)?
i say if your going to chop lets at least be consistent
and chop hospital also.and pigs, etc.
and caughtinside,fandango rap station#1 is 30 feet at least from the trail,and is not visble (nylon runners and bail biners now)most people cant find it and wont use it if you paid them.
although the more people to use this rap means less wear and tear on the overused and non maintained trail
lets face it, most people will still walk off.
but the cunning locals will rappell this route FOREVER.
brian, paul, ralph and chirpio:i found 2 inch diameter x 10 inch stainless eye bolts for 75 dollars each!
thanks, dave gerbalman

It turns out that chirpy, gerbals, ashley, (maybe joe and ralph too ) are all the same people, so there's not any f*#king going on - instead a lot of masturbation. Also all of the 'bolts are back' 'rapped it yesterday' etc comment are BS. This is a total TROLL!
He was called out by mucci on the lost rap glove thread and deleted it. Here's a link

First off, the TARDS used Climb axe hangers, not the ASCA they touted in the OP. I would know, I have one of the original rap anchor hangers in my bolt bag.
Secondly, When I go back to chop all of the bolts on fandango, I hope you are there, all of you. You are cowards and don't stand behind your work. If you did the rappel would have been re-installed.
I use my real name and back it up. You know who I am, so when you see me coming down with all of your shitty steel in tow, walk the other way.

mucci... do you need glasses? One of the ASCA bolts, one of the two in the picture below is still there! Now connected via some tat to one of the old pins also in the picture below.
Thanks S.Powers. Good to know.
New replacement steel on Fandango is courtesy of the ASCA. Thanks to all who have donated.

There is one pin and one bolt. If you walked by the anchor on your way Down the trail, you would know this. The two pins to the left of the bolt are GONE buddy.
