You are listening to the Enormo Cast.

And folks, as you know, Black Diamond is one of the major sponsors of the

You Normal Cast, and while the money they've handed me has

disappeared into the dark hole of debauchery, they also hand money over to some important organizations,

like the American Alpine Club, like the Access Fund, and like the Nature Conservancy,

the people who control a major part of Indian Creek.

So when you're spending your money on new gear,

consider the fact that not only do they make great gear, but they're also trying to protect the places that you're going to use it.

Black Diamond, proud sponsor of the Norma Cast. Does your partner suffer from tried-again syndrome or one hangitis or even worse delusional performance disorder?

Well, there really isn't a cure for DPD except for a good smackdown, but it does probably mean that you've been belaying them for hours and hours on end and are now suffering from BMP or belayer neck pain.

A stiffness in the cervical spine just below the occipital region of your thick, thick skull.

But now there's a cure for BMP, resulting from DPD.

Ask your doctor about ballet specs.

And when he doesn't know what the hell you're talking about, just smile and tuck

that prescription for opiates away for your next overseas plane flight. But then ask several

strangers about Bela Spex. Ask that cute barista at the coffee shop on the corner about Bela Spex.

In fact, ask everyone you know about Bela Spex.

Keep talking about Bela Spex until nobody wants to climb with you anyway.

Problem solved.

But if that doesn't work, then go to Bela aspects.

and get yourself a pair.
