I was going to keep an eye on the MEC gear swap page, but I'd be more than happy if you can get your hands on them before they landed there!
I'll ask around and see what I can drag up. Off season so mught take a while, but the deals out here can be increadible. Hell I got a brand new set of Grivel Racing Wings (ergo handle, replaced be the monster, Tech wing was replaced by the Taa-k-oons) for $240 for the set. They hadn't even been used once. They Retaied for over $260 a peice. Some deals are way better than that too.

There are only 2 sets of tools that I used for more than one season that I've never had to replace a broken pick. One set is DDM Fly's (7 years on those picks, though I do have a spare set), the other is my fist pair of Taak's 5 years on a single set of pick (the first 2 years was heavy on the mixed too. The first year with them I was able to get to the 5th or 6th bolt on Musashi! <---- Right before I pealed off on lead in the middle of a figure-4 and freaked myself out. 
If I only climbed fat ice my picks would last a long time too. The ice really doesn't get to thick around here and I always end up not checking one spot at the top of a route and of course that is the one place where the ice is only a 1/4" thick.
I like to keep my picks pretty sharp to. Though not as sharp as I used to. That was to sharp and they would mash even if I hit soft limstone.

I love that to, but first a pair of regular boots that fit me better, then probobly some more screws, then a new pair of tools, and then maybe a set of fruit boots. Not to mentions things like new ropes and such in that list too. Fruit boots are quite a ways off. that doesn't seem quite fair, I mean Nathan has fruit boots.........why can't becca have fruit boots? Chossy buy becca fruit boots now! Now!
Besides, I did well into M9 with my big clunky boots and sabertooth crampons. There are a lot of other things that can be improved upon before she gets the fruitbootz.
Who do you think she is, Doc?
