Good video, and I use the web-o-lette style using tied webbing myself, but understand is it a weaker configuration versus a cordalette. The single strand legs have considerably less strength than the double stand leg. This may not be an issue in many applications such as canyoneering, but something to consider if a factor 2 fall is possible.
nice vid! sound setup, personally(and its just me) i prefer SG krabs on the gear just to be sure, but snapgates are totally fine if in a bind, but if i have the SG's i use them. nice vid well done!
I like it. Maybe figure 8's would be easier to untie, but also have less of a chance to roll over and come out- that's fairly unlikely though. If this was pitch 2 of 3 (or more) I would add a pice of gear to make the anchor directional...
Good video- where is the climb? Sounded like Delaware Water Gap in NJ with route 80 just below haha...

@werner111 Water knots (same as a overhand) are the most common knot used in webbing, but other knots can be used.

Whats the reason for just an overhand knot? Is it because it's using webbing?

you could save a lot of hassle untying this anchor, if it was weighted, by using figure 8's on bights in stead of overhands.
