Sick video ! Beautiful line for sure. Could always use a standard carabiner in a pinch as that wouldn't see the cyclical loading a mainline connection would. Better than just the single point of failure ?
Great to see the crew loving life and sessioning hard. Super fun to see Inis progressing so fast and Pietro pushing for even bigger tricks!! Hugs from A´dam
The thing that made me struggle even if is a low tension line is on one anchor where you guys have mainline and backup line on one single connector and no backup , even if is a huge one or massive resistance connectors there is no redundancy and we are all and always exposed hardware failure.
@@jo-zephpremoselli2153 Yeah that's true, I totally agree. That's why I also added an extra explanation during the shot where that shows. In general I wouldn't do this, but now we did. I guess ideally we would have used another sling to sling another rock for a back-up. Thank you for sharing your thoughts Zeph :)
what mm tagline ( 4mm? 2mm?) did you use ( that still works doubled up in the micro traction)? What is the name of the weight you used to attach it to? (I'm looking to purchase both:) )
@@JonasKonijnenberg As a rough approximation, the angle of the spanset is about 120 degrees. Using some basic physics (or just lookup "anchor forces"), you can see that the redirect sees 100% of the force being redirected. If the angle would be 90 (which I think this was more), it would go up to 140% (looking at the aforementioned illustrations, 71kg tension, results in 100kg redirect force). So unless the angle ended up being more than 120 degrees, you would have probably been better off connecting the highline directly to that bolt
@@jetseverschuren. The point of the whole redirect is to have an angle of the highline that is more comfortable for getting on it or to avoid any abrasion of the material. I really disagree that we would have been better of anchoring it directly to the bolt that is not in the right orientation for a highline. At least now if the bolt fails the anchor is still on the rock

Thats great to hear Freddy!
Great video! Can I also ask what is the name of the weblock which also has an intergrated soft release? ( that looks really useful!)
the orange! from radrigs
I Found the rigg sketchy.
But nice line.
what part did you find sketchy? It wasn't the safest setup no. But seems fine for a relatively low tension line like this

I think we use 3 or 2 mm doubled up. 4mm works already single wrap
So on the first side, the entire force was on that single bolt for the redirect?
the force of the redirect won't be the full force of the setup. It will only be a fraction of it
the full force is on the rock that is slinged, being redirected by the bolt

@@jetseverschuren well thank you for clarifying that! I thought this would happen with a 90º angle. But I will do some more self study :)
