Lead climb fail


Yesterday was really a WTF day.
Like practically all kinds of shit happen.
So let's see, met Yong Sheng on the train at around 12.15.
Then we went all the way to Farrer Park.
Then met Wai Heng there.
Went to eat LJS at city square.
Then after eating, went to climb asia.
On the way saw Chong Yu so the 4 of us went there.
Then after reaching there, went to buy my shoes.
Top Gun.
DAMN EXPENSIVE.
My heart-ached.
So after getting my shoes, Clement came with Sharon.
Then we all wanted to use Ngee Ann credits so we waited for Min Jian to come.
Then that Min Jian at Tampines wth.
Okay I'm going to faster blog finish cause my brother want to use.
So after we boulder awhile, we went to lead climb.
Ooo I finished the green route.
Actually it's quite easy.
Q_Q
Okay so AS WE ALL KNOW
.
.
.
so if we lead climb, we must come down.
But there's a couple of way you can come down.
1. Just belay down (with tight rope)
2. Climb down (if you're a wuss)
3. Fall metres down then belay down (if you got a strong heart or what they call balls of steel)
I tried my first lead climb on 5c+
I reached the top.
I was tired already.
So I wasn't thinking so much.
Then I shout down.
I falling already ah!
Then all of them shouted back FALL.
Who would have thought that they put so much slack in the rope.
I dropped half the wall down.
Around 5 panels.
Like free fall for 5~6m?
Then my heart thumped damn fast.
Because I'm someone who want to overcome fear, I went to try the lead climb afterwards at 6a route.
Apparently the front was quite easy.
It was the top that's difficult.
So at around 3/4 of my route, my hand's going to cramp any moment.
So I shouted "FALLING"
Then I can see Sebastian tightening the road.
LOL
I let go once I felt a jerk on my harness (meaning it's super tight already)
So I thought I was save and then I let go of both hands.
My leg got tangled with the rope and somehow (I still don't really know how) I flipped and did a somersault at 10m above the ground.
I WAS SHOCKED LIKE FUCK.
LIKE SERIOUSLY.
Because when I stare at my leg, the background was the sky.
But when I stare at by lifting my head, I saw shocked faces.
Everyone staring at me.
The first thought that came to my mind was "Save myself"
So I keep trying to struggle.
Struggle struggle then I FINALLY untangled myself.
Really what a close shave man.
Then ya da ya da.
Went to do PT using top rope.
Then went to eat steamboat at Farrer park without Sharon, Clement and Chong Yu.
The 5 of us bought beef from Cold Storage to bring up and cook.
LOL.
Okay then went home.
Then do PW.
Then talk to Sherine on the phone to tell her what happened today.
Then SLEPT.
I'm 45 minutes late for soccer already.
SEE YOU PEOPLE.
