  • oh my dear lord and you run a climbing center? Are you for real... Your videos are poor

  • Oh brother. You need to hire a guide.

  • That is exactly why i use a rope bag, to keep it away from all that petroleum and acid. Expert Village is garbage!

  • These videos border on completely useless. I'm sorry, and i don't intend to be disrespectful, but you repeat yourself far too often, and don't actually say anything useful. Your advice is more or less common sense (keep your rope away from petroleum and acid??? really?) and doesn't provide any detail whatsoever on how to do the things you advise.

    These videos would be much more useful if they touched on more valuable topics such as how to actually inspect a rope for defects and damage.

  • why do you suck at it?

  • unless you stink at it!!!
