>>2419154I was being flippant but yes I know. the route is on a 1200ft slab with a crack system in the middle. the first three pitches and the last pitch are basically unfeatured rock with no opportunity for placements, but also at a low enough angle that a careful climber is probably in no danger of falling. on those pitches we placed just one or two pieces because that's all there was.
>the belayer would get pulled down tooI don't see that this is true. even if the leader places no protection at all the belayer (and leader) would hopefully be held by the anchor.
>>2419161hell yeah man
