I am
impressed !
The climbers know ABoK#1080 ? Ouaou ! THAT is why they manage to remain alive !
( alpineer, I believe you could had found a better joke...)
P.S.
However, I would like to learn how they tie it - do they tie it in-the-end, or in-the-bight ? And, if they tie it in-the-bight, which of the many methods they choose to follow ? Tying it in-the-end, is
conceptually simpler, and can be done almost blindly - on the other hand, tying the ABoK#1080 in the bight and then retucking the tail ( in order to achieve a wider, 3-rope-diameters nipping loop -
if they do that retucking ) is quicker ! I am interested in learning what do knot users prefer, a simpler or a quicker method ?
