In reply to 1234None:
ouch, the knowledge of your breakage was running through my mind on white wand I can tell you.
I fell off the top crack of narcisuss above pads, would have been fine but bounced into the surrounding rocks. I have hurt my back but wouldn't change it for the world. A number of us have had mild whiplash this week from the longer falls. Great stuff.
This Nouveau Griche style lowers the probability of hurting yourself but retains the spice, as evidenced above.
Adam's idea* of a font grade and !, !! and !!! system similar to DWS S-grades would be a very worthy addition to how we approach highballs, though it should be obvious when you walk up to the thing!
*(might of got confused with the snowball grading, still works though)
