Looks good. The only issue I have is shortening the prusik knot with a Clove hitch. This knot can slip, more so on dyneema, so maybe clip the end of the loop into the crab so it can't slip off?
In such a static environment, I'm not worried much about slipping, and we have the catastrophe knot below; but your idea seems like a low-cost way to avoid a potential problem and having to re-rig the system, for sure.
Sure. You do have the catastrophe knot. I'm just thinking it's not generally a knot you want to put towards the end of anything. For reference to the idea of clipping in the free end to make it 100% secure see around 7min into this from the ENSA ua-cam.com/video/eqZQnCGl24A/v-deo.htmlsi=1fXbK2N9wcFlC0tj
@@stephenbarby7234 That's a really good point. I'm pretty small (hence the channel name) and so don't worry much about the length of material. I do the same thing with "clipping the free end" of a double bowline when I use it in a fixed-point belay. Makes a a lot of sense.
Honestly very very helpful!
Try to be. Don't always hit the mark 😂. Glad this one helped a bit. 🙏

Is that a quick cameo from Darwin on the Trail I see?
It is. 😁 Helping him get ready for his Island Peak attempt.
Great video.
Appreciate that! 🙏
Or you just give no fucks, Sean V-OD tactics and just tape over the core shot, pretend it's not there and then carry on climbing for 5 days
But I don't have his talent. 😅
Yeh me too dude, I'm no good on the tin whistle either 😔
@@dannygrout92 😆Me neither. But Favresse is the better musician.
