It’s not the length. It’s how they are unnecessary. It seems that if you have the chance to get your point across in a few sentences, what’s the point of writing an essay? But, if you enjoy doing that, I don’t have a problem with it.

Writing isn’t a chore to some; it’s an art.

To answer the OPs question, the same thing happens with vintage cars. It isn’t always about the most cutting edge of performance for collectors. Historical significance plays a big role in collectibility.

I’m sure that’ll fetch a pretty penny. Heck, I love that masking/blasting thing you do on the polish, so I’d probably bid myself. :wink:

Speaking of yothrowbling Peaks, the pink mountain one you did was just gorgeous. If there’s a picture of that knocking around then I’m sure we’d all love to see it. 🙂

Pretty sure, at least I always heard, that is a Wooly Marmot. Which Chris has said was just an undersized Peak. So you can actually do horizontal with an undersized Peak if that’s the case ;D

Check CLYW’s facebook. Alex Berenguel was using his OG Peak in the recent video.
