When I was taught hooking my first lesson was don't look at it and don't lean back. I apply this now to most pieces.

DANG IT!

This situation came up in the "How Do I Hook" topic.

The proffered wizdumb?

"Keep your head down and let your helmet see what goes wrong if the hook pops."


Nobody can read all the topics, but the sheer volume is supposed to help.
