Yes I was wearing a helmet while leading and like I said before Im not going to be free soloing anymore.

Thanks for telling me how much judgment I have.

I topped out a 5.9 that overhung for the first 3/4 leading and still had the energy to do it again after (Not saying this is some ridiculous feat in general, but it was good in terms of myself). The 5.7 I fell on was a careless mistake. While preparing to take the intentional fall I let my hand slip on a grip I could have easily held on to for the rest of the day if I had to.

This thread was created so I could figure out what could have happened during the fall and what I could have improved upon in falling to keep myself safe. Not to start criticizing what I am able to do. Yes I have made some stupid decisions in climbing (Leading things I probably shouldn't have started leading on, solo freeclimbing), but honestly everyone makes dumb decisions in their life and I have learned from these experiences and taken the advice given to me by this thread to actually start improving my leading and being a safer climber in general.
