Leeper Z-Nailers are another indispensable tool for aid climbing. They can be used alone or stacked with angle pitons. Either side of a Z-Nailer may be used for stacking. The sling attachment point (use thin webbing) is inside the crack limiting leverage

All Leeper gear is made with the highest quality alloy steel, heat treated to have great strength, but not to be dangerously brittle. It will bend before it breaks.

Because of the ideal sling attachment point, Z-Nailers provide whatever strength a stack is able to give, without hard driving. It is more important to get the sling attachment into the crack as close as possible to where the rock grips the stack. Also use any natural crack irregularities -- like you would with a chock. Often you can tap the stack in, stand on it, then remove it with your hand.

"Shop's business grows despite remote locale
By BRETT FRENCH
Of The Gazette Staff
SILVER GATE - Just outside his office window, Jay Schifferdecker can see the aquamarine gash of The Killer Pillar, a 30-foot frozen waterfall he likes to ice climb. Out the back door, there is a Nordic ski trail he glides on almost every day, snaking into the snow-muffled silence of the Beartooth Mountains."
