Travelure

Emotionally devastating fall (I blame the QDs), however, Nathan showed the entire crag what a real whipper looks like soon after

A short overhanging route. The crux is a reachy move from a bad hold next to a nest of spiders. Upon discovery of spiders so close to my hand, I let out, an apparently, feminine yelp which elicited giggles from the onlooking French girls. After the clip, one would expect the route to be straightforward, however there is a tricky slab right before the anchor where you desperately look for a hand hold. On my first attempt I went far to the right to find a hand jam. While this felt secure, there wasn't much for the feet and I tried to stand on some moss. My foot slipped, my hand ripped out, and I fell backwards upside-down over the overhang. While screaming for my life, I was sure my head would smash into the wall and I thought "why didn't I wear a helmet?" But my head did not hit the wall, and all I suffered was a large bleeding scape on my right arm, and the startled attention of everyone at the crag as I was left swinging vigorously in the safely belayed catch of the outstanding belayer, my dear friend Felix. After a long rest I put on my helmet and sent the route.
