Highly recommended. Leave the #5's at home. Maybe 1 #6 and then all the gear you have that's bigger than that. This is roughly where the 9" Valley Giant stopped camming. Beta recommended large blocks of wood or other custom chocks if you have any hope of protecting the 13"+ middle section and the foot stack crux. :) BTW I heard Trango stopped making the gold BigBro?

Huh. Hadn't heard that. It's not on their website anymore :( Poor toob! Time to make a homemade one I guess. Catherine knows about this structural stuff. Maybe she can make one for us.

I think they stopped making the gold one because it doesn't really work. :)
Placed the blue one a couple of times at Red Rocks and it is such a precarious instrument... I'd dare you to take a 20 foot totally clean fall on one. :-P
