Title: What the F happened to FSA?
Post by: rginns on March 20, 2010, 01:15:55 am

Where the jolly hell did fat sloper action get to, all I get is some search jizz, BRING CHAV OF THE CRAG BACK!

Randomly, I had the same thought a while ago (after discovering me ma had thrown out two FSA T-Shirts!!!) and did some sleuthing. I had forgotten about this until Mr FSA himself Gareth messaged me back yesterday to say he still has some stock and I will hopefully be taking delivery of some soon :)

I cheekily asked if he would sell me all his stock, so if he does, I might be able to let some of it go...

That would be great. My T shirt is getting very faded. Fridge magnet still in good nick though.

Nice one - if anyone can come by a shirt in a small I'd be keen to take it off their hands.

Yes! My much loved FSA shirt from a SIBL comp back around the millenium died many moons ago.

Do you know why he let it all fizzle out?

If there are any FSA-branded Ford Capris left I'll have one.

Had further conversations with Gareth last night and he was very touched by the way FSA is felt about by us! He has registered for a UKB account and will update you all on where he is at etc as soon as his account is verified  :)

Maybe set it up as a facebook page if keeping a website up to date is too much hassle?

That's good to hear
I've got 2 T shirts I still wear - I love the double take look you get when people realise its not TNF logo

Bizarrely I did a search for this the other day too, after having a chat about favorite climbing t shirts. Even worse is that because yorkshiregrit also disappeared I don't even have any photos of the tshirt... :wavecry:
