From http://www.rockclimbingcompany.co.uk/Lead_Climb_Course_Spain.html Quote: "The image below shows an advanced placement that will perhaps show the potential of using hexes inventively - the flared crack would not take a normal nut - not even an HB Offset, but the Rockcentric loaded as seen in the image was bombproof because loading the sling just pulled the hex tighter into the placement." I assume there is a pimple of rock above the hex and given the size of the photo it is hard to see where the rock sits and it doesn't look like the sling is threaded ---- it doesn't look "bombproof" to me. Thoughts?
