Hey All I did Social Comment (*14) on Death Row Pinnacle on the weekend. A fantastic climb at the grade. However, the hollow flake on the second pitch sounded a little to hollow for me. It was OK to pull on for a move, however upon inspection I decided to place pro somewhere else. Has anyone been there and got and opinion on this?

Have not done the route, however I believe you made the right decision in using your judgement at the time.

The description on thecrag mentions that it's avoidable.
I led it as a single pitch and I'm pretty sure I didn't pull on the flake or put gear behind it, but I found the moves above where the belay would be quite committing.
