Weights?

For my own sanity I have decided to log a bunch of gear weights so I can refer back to them as required. I'll add more weights as I get time. All listed numbers are the most current weights I have from a digital scale and gear I actually have on hand. There are no industry numbers posted...because short of Black Diamonds #s (and those I check) most are significantly inaccurate and misleading if you are trying to sort your own gear.

Worth spending $30/40 on a good digital scale if you get serious about it.

How about including Grams (g)? 1oz=28.3496g

John Box said...

Couple of questions, what size boots, and the weights are for one or both boots? Thanks for giving us a voice :)

Dane said...

John, as mentioned in the post, all the weights are for a single boot in a size 45 (Sportiva) or a 11.5/12 US. Belay jackets are all XL unless noted other wise.

great blog Dane. I've been reading it all winter. Really helpful. cheers.

Dane said...

Oscar, buddy, you are killing me :) It is enough work to get it all down on paper in .oz!

Thanks for posting these weights. I was trying to find out the actual weights for the Grivel G12 and the BD Sabretooth. Got 'em. Thanks :o)

Unknown said...

I thought the BD Sabretooths were heavier than the Grivel G12s. Turns out it's the other way around!

Jon Rhoderick said...

Full Sabretooth Clip 34.75oz

Dane said...

I was a duffus first time around and didn't notice you were specifically posting the clip model's weight for comparison. I am surprised there is so little differnce between the Clip and the Pro models. Thanks for the info.
