Fixed draw cuts rope ~> fatality 25-Oct-2012 At 11:25:26 AM Seb

I don't climb things for the grades. I climb them because I like climbing. The perma-draws have been there since Jan. Its when I put them there. Why is the grade of the climb important in this discussion? I am sure its easy for lots of people but its not easy for me. If its grade 24 or 25 or 26 what's the difference?

From what I see around alot of people leave draws on their roof projects. I thought leaving perma-draws for an extended time was better the leaving regular draws.

So if I hung my draws on a 32 and layed out 300 bucks it would be ok but because I am a shit climber its not?

The only real question here is does it interfere with other peoples climbing. I would like to hear peoples opinion on that, if it does have a big impact on their enjoyment of a particular climb?
