Great video! Electrical tape will eventually ooze off and get all misaligned, especially if the 'biners are exposed to higher heat (like in a car). I'd suggest a few layers of heat shrink tubing to give you that thickness.
@@climberevan wow the heat shrink tube is a great idea!! In my experience the electrical tape gets damaged from friction but it stays decent for a while.
@@neitzsche5150 two Petzl Tangas would be annoying as you would have to remove one each time and risk dropping it. The Kong fast rubber might be good to keep a carabiner permanently on the belay loop but it is not my style. And would not keep the Spoc from sliding over the gate. Only the Avant "Flex-Link" - Anti-Crossload Protector would work and be of this kind!! Makes sense?
Curious, why not a non cross loading locker where the gate is blocked like the DMM belay master or similar? Do they get caught up? Good video as I'd sort of written it off without ever using one but generally like edelrid gear
I am not the specialist in Soft shackles. I own a few and never use them in rock climbing. I know no one using them in rock climbing. I hear (and believe) they are safe when kept under tension. Not the case with the Spoc. I don't believe they are safe for that use...
