Climbing anchor shock loads are a myth - human testing in Yosemite
🕑 Added 2020-04-22 13:30:01 +0000 UTCIf one bolt or cam fails on a sliding X, does the shock load create enough force to be dangerous. Many put limiter knots half way up the slings on both sides in order to limit the shock load but that reduces the strength of your sling significantly. So I use my body to see what it feels like when shock loading a mammut dyneema climbing sling (https://amzn.to/2VjXkRC).
