You are listening to the Enormo Cast.

Lo, these past few months, I've been trying to get you the listener to support the Enorma

cast by buying new climbing shoes from Sportiva.

But I realize that many of you have some trod and true kicks filthy held together by Shugu and they'll probably have to pry them from your cold gnarled calloused feet when your heart finally gives out on you while you're soloing the

enormous or whatever.

But did you feel that chill in the air this morning, that coolness that'll start to draw the

masochists from their dark dry tooling layers.

Well, Sportiva makes mountain boots, fruit boots, or if you're a Hahnold,

cramp-on-ready sneakers to get you up the Narlius Iseus Project your semi-dormant

limbic cortex has dreamed up over the happy days of summer.

So it's probably time to start shopping for those if rock climbing is just too fun

for you and they've got trail running shoes for your pre-massicism,

masochism. So go check it out, Sportiva.com or your nearest outdoor retailer,

the Norma Cast and Sportiva, like two bros and a bivisac.

When it comes to protecting climbers, we all know that Black Diamond makes great gear to keep

you alive on those big climbs.

But look more closely and you will find a company that has the climbing communities back in many deeper ways.

For 25 years, Black Diamond has carried a vision that they have a vested interest in protecting the places that you're going to use that gear.

The company is well aware that they have the clout

that an individual doesn't have to stand up to those who would sell, close, or

destroy our beloved climbing areas. Advocacy groups across the world have found BD willing and able to help them bring powerful

Kung Fu to the fight for our right for adventure.
