Dropped gear-to use or not to use	29-May-2006 At 11:47:02 AM	belayslave

I dropped a Trango micro-cam off white water wall in Tassie and it went to the retired pile straight away. Unless it's made of steel i tend to retire anything that has a decent length drop onto anything hard. But then you think of the trashing your gear gets smashing against the rock while you drag it up climbs (happens a lot in my case!) and the way your gear gets thrown around in your backpack and car, that's all got to be equivalent to dropping it.
