"auto-blocking" Munter hitch

Kurt,

 

yeah, that makes sense. can't deny that could happen. but I'm wondering how bringing up a 2nd could create that much shock. Maybe falling on an unprotected traverse while the belayer isn't paying attention and has left a lot of slack, but rope stretch on a dynamic rope would probably keep it from severing.

 

but thanks for the heads up. I'll definitely keep it in mind.

 

BTW, let us know the easier way to do the auto-blocking munter you alluded to above.
