Last example of the loop sling coming completely free of the carabiner is somewhat unclear. Given that release of the line is supposed to transfer load back to the mainline. Any slippage greater than the working length that would allow the loop to come free before reloading the main line would not work as intended. Or if positively secured would not have length to release the load back to the mainline.
I didn't understand why you clipped into the sling at Shawn's end, until your great explanation and demo of this acting as a fail-safe in case of human error. Great!
In an improvised rescue scenario it is essential that it is not clipped in. Otherwise you and the one you are rescuing will often be left hanging from this and will have to cut it
Very clear and well paced. Great video, thanks.

great skill Buddies. with simple technics and a little of gear we have a great advantage. When we do not have many resources, is a good way to work.
learn to get the job done with the simplest gear are also very important. how heavy is the ID? over 1/2 a kg, and not to mention the price of it
