Hang out on the couch or watch a movie or something so you don't end up walking around a lot. I almost always soak new shoes. The next time I put them on, It's like they are a few weeks old, but with BRAND FREAKIN' NEW RUBBER! Woot! Enjoy! If he does that they arent going to take them back. If he does that he won't have to take them back. Curt Ain't that the truth. Shoo is 100% on the spot. On the other hand taking advice from Enigma regarding climbing is a bad idea. This is a person who came into Nomad Ventures a while back, brought in a rope with bad core damage, and asked for advice. At the time there were probably five locals standing around with a ton of time under their belts telling her the rope was in bad shape. Then she started to argue with us. I left. Is this the best you can do to drum up beginner climbers that need a guide for 250 dollars a day? Dosen't your company advertise ? You probably don't get many referrals either.  I did buy a new rope anyway. Thanks for your interest.  How nice for you! Great, after arguing with us you finally relented and bought a new rope. There was probably 150 years of climbing experience in the shop that day nicely trying to inform that the rope was shot. What did you do? Argue. After a several year hiatus from this site, you still have learned nothing. You still insist on dispensing information and advice you clearly have no business offering in the beginners forum. As far as my guiding goes, I do just fine thank you. I get return customers and I get referrals. I get excellent tips and I get compliments with my patience with clients. I put a lot of time into my clients and work with them to ensure they are getting more than what they pay for.
You are so transparent, it obvious you are hoping for beginner climbers to give you $250 dollars a day for 3 days.
Not to mention I was in a climbing shop that sells ropes and shoes.
I also know Nomad helps desperate climbing guides to find business.
