Yeah, the nut sucks. There's a crazy, improbable nut placement to the right of the flake. It's a grey DMM offset. It locks into a 3/16" deep groove. I've weight-tested it but never fallen on it. It might hold. There's also a pink tricam placement that some people swear by. I thought it was good until I weight-tested that as well. It blew without even full body weight. I've seen one or 2 people use a sling. I'll have to try and remember it next time I do the climb.
Scary lead. Nice job!
crusher

thanks
Hey, thanks, man!
wearing a backpack and climbing in jeans!
Yes, I was.
We were always scared to place a nut behind that flake. I always put a sling over it. YMMV

Very nice video thanks for posting - what is the grade? Gear looked a little run out at the start. Well done
Thanks. It is 5.9.
Nice lead
Thanks Adam!
