-as for whether it "counts" as a send or not, it shouldn't matter. Be honest when you spray about how it went down; that's it.

top roping something that is was out of your range well thats understandable i guess i wouldnt know because i just levitate up everything like david blane or some shit. Getting to the top is getting to the top if you want to keep track of each climb you have done blah blah blah number numbers numbers then that is fine but you shouldnt count something on your tick list unless you have lead that shit. When in doubt run it out........Who cares well the people keeping score lol but when you think about it there is no score who cares just get out there and climb some shit whateever happens happens it was already probably planned out by some higher power haha Jesus knows thats who knows

Is this a send. You do all the moves free on a 5.13a and you are at the
anchors with your hand on a 5.8 hold. The 5.8 hold blows while your clipping
the anchors and you fall.
I say it is a send. Saw it happen at Maple.

What's with all the crazy punctuation?
A 5.8 hold, that sounds funny.

actually, it would be the smallest holds on a 5.8, cause a route is rated for its hardest moves. the big holds on a 5.8 are probably 5.6 holds...

that being said , I had a buddy who broke a foot hold in the middle of a route and fell. he got right back on and finished it and then ticked it off his list...fair game?
I say foul ball.
