  • Question... At frame : 48 I see the carabiner is attached to the main rope... Is that a prusik knot? Thanks!

  • @RickM1953 I don't know which is frame 48, but you probably are referring to the Bachmann knot.

  • ??? you should do it only with one carabiner and the 8, one Prusik (or Klemheist) for safty and one to feed up...

    

  • @neromaxiede

    Not claiming any optimum technique here. I'm not qualified to argue these points anyway, just having fun.

  • When climbing with prusiks and you form a double foot loop in one prusik, how do you tie that.

  • Girth hitch a loop of webbing to the biner, and on the foot, tie a slip knot loop.

  • It's always possible, that something falls down from above your head.

    But I know the hard guys don't wear helmets, they wear holes....
