Reply To: Buying nuts

i agree with the wombat’s friend. go for wallnuts. ross is right, ut most nuts have the double taper – it’s just more pronounced with the wallnuts.

i also recommend peanuts. RPs are not thta usefull for beginers as they are mostly needed on runout slightly dubious climbs that you will not be leading anyway…. as for hexes – if you have a beard they are mandatory. otherwise – for WA they are not worth the money as they don’t perform well in granite. however if you were climbing at araps on a budget then hexes would be the way to go.
