lead vs second grade gap	27-Jun-2011 At 5:43:32 PM	ado_m

I tried regularly leading my hardest toprope grades. Then I spent 6 months in a plaster cast from breaking my arm because I couldn't place good enough gear when pumped out of my brain going for it. And my back is probably f---ed for a long time, it's painful to stand/sit/ride/do anything much apart from swimming and pilates for post natal women. If you're worried or can't place pro safely, back it off a notch, really it's not worth it climbing that grade harder to impress the hobos at the pines. Get back in one piece. Ado
