The Pontas Shoe
Review by: MichaelCohen, 2009-03-17
The Pontas shoe is amazing! It has great edging and a tight heel for those tough heel hooks. On top of this, the slight downtourn makes the shoes a little aggresive but still very comftorble. Lastly, the velcro straps make them easy to put on and take off.

Alpine Bod
Review by: MichaelCohen, 2009-03-17
I purchased the Alpine Bod harness at REI for $37 (plus tax). I have climbed in several harnesses, some with and some without padding. The harness is durable, light, cheap, and, although some say it is not, very comftorable. I have been using the harness for a long time and have not experienced any trouble with it. In fact, I find it easier to put on without the belay loop. Definitely a 5/5.
