Last week, I was climbing with my mate Graham at the Pass of Ballater. I took a leader fall onto a foot jam near the top of Strawberry Ripple. The gear was just below the jam and this was the best hold I had (left hand positive crimp, right hand slap). My right foot slipped off a nubbin due to wet rock and I fell onto the left foot into the crack. I am lucky that I have only got soft tissue damage and I am recovering well.
I had a search of previous posts and I was surprised to find nothing similar to my experience. I am still learning from my stupid mistakes after climbing for 22 years - I guess I need to avoid wet rock more. I certainly have a renewed dislike of foot jams (I've never liked them very much, certainly compared to hand jams).
I am just wondering who else has experienced this situation and I am always open to advice on how I can avoid such a situation again (obviously, in addition to my own thoughts).
cheers in anticipation,
M
