I've been lead climbing for 2 weeks now and I'm still not sure about one thing : How should I fall?
I've been lucky enough not to fall from a high point but what should I keep in mind in the event of a fall? TThanks :D

And I've been leading on artificial walls.

In trad it is better to jump than to fall. The result is the same, but when you jump, you decide where you are going and can place your body in the right position.
In trad, you have to think before you do the move where you are going to fall. If you have the choice between a barn door and a flag, look what your body his going to hit. with a flag, you are going to fall on your back and with a barn door, you are going to fall on your feet. What is best...it is your decision when you lead. But always decide before where you are going to jump if you loose control. You are going to climb lower grade, but with more spice.

This is not good advice, nor appropriate. He/she is a beginner and is most assuredly talking about gym falls and/or sport falls. Trad falls have nothing to do with anything right now.
Second, you don't "jump".

The more force you put into falling, the more force it's going to bring you back into the wall

I was in a diedral, left wall. I took a hole in my right hand and slip. If I control my fall, I had bounce from one side to the other of the diedral with an 18 feet fall injury. I jump in the middle of the diedral and the rope stop my fall (stopper number 4, ouf)and bring me back safely to the rock (bungee effect) It was a safe fall, not an accident because I jump.
When the belayer hold the rope too short, it is true that you can't jump because the rope bring you back to the wall. you can not avoid a ledge too. Inside, you don't have ledges, It is the reason why in trad the belayer keep slack in the rope.
I am often scare to be belay by sport climber. I can't climb at my level. If a beginer understand many way to save his .... , he is going to be a better climber. I emphasized that my observations are for trad climbing.

Jacques, I don't think Blueeyed was saying your advice is not very good advice for taking trad falls. I think if a beginner were to try to not only think about how to climb but how to fall on every move it would fry their brain.
One rule I try to keep while climbing is never have my leg in-between the rope and the wall. Ian

He said: "This is not good advice". In trad, one bad advice is to gave rule. I can told you many exception at your rule, all more dangerous one than the other. The interesting part of trad is that you have to think at what happen and how you are going to do your move. When you take a decision, it is not always true that you are going to be able to do the move.

In sport, rules works, because safety are think to pay less insurance and to avoid legal pursuit.

In trad, gravity make no distinction between someone who learn how to fall before learning how to climb and someone who learn to climb before how to fall. Is it safer for a beginer who know how to fall to try a 5.10 than to a beginer who climb 5.10 to try a 5.8 with one rule and one exception on how to avoid to flip over with his rope?

In trad, I prefer someone who learn how to fall. He can fall number of time without injury and have fun to climb all his life, even 5.6, 5.7,...5.10. A climber who climb hard the first year (5.11) can fall one time in trad and never be able to take the sharp end of the rope after.

Beginer have to know that and still have fun to climb in a gym, but differently.

Il a dit: "Ce n'est pas un bon conseil". En trad, un mauvais conseil donné est de règle. Je peux vous ai dit de nombreuses exception à votre règle, tous plus dangereux que les autres. La partie intéressante de trad, c'est que vous devez penser à ce qui se passe et comment vous allez faire de votre déménagement. Lorsque vous prenez une décision, il n'est pas toujours vrai que vous allez être capable de faire le déménagement.

Dans le sport, les œuvres des règles, parce que la sécurité sont pense payer moins d'assurance et d'éviter des poursuites judiciaires.

En trad, la gravité ne font aucune distinction entre une personne qui apprennent à l'automne avant d'apprendre à monter et à quelqu'un qui apprennent à monter avant comment tomber. Est-il plus sûr pour une débutante qui savent l'automne pour essayer un 5,10 pour une débutante à qui grimpent 5.10 à essayer un 5,8 avec une règle et une exception sur la façon d'éviter de retourner avec sa corde?

En trad, je préfère quelqu'un qui apprennent à l'automne. Il peut tomber nombre de fois sans se blesser et avoir du plaisir à monter toute sa vie, même 5,6, 5,7, ... 5,10. Un grimpeur qui dure montée de la première année (5,11) peut tomber une fois dans trad et ne jamais être en mesure de prendre l'extrémité pointue de la corde après.

Débutant faut savoir que tout en vous amusant de monter dans un gymnase, mais différemment.
