Source : I have been aware of this idea for years; couldn't tell you where I first found out about it. Contributed by: Marty Comiskey ( martycomiskey@yahoo.com) Best useful for: Top rope x Trad x Mountaineering x Description: Have you ever slotted the "perfect" nut as a piece of pro and then found that when you clipped a carabiner to the cable, the carabiner hung right on the edge or was otherwise improperly loaded or compromised? Or have you ever tried to slot a nut into a crack that was just beyond your reach? In either case, here is a remedy to extend the cable for clipping purposes or to make it longer to allow you to place it in that crack just beyond your reach. Step 1: Place two cabled nuts one atop the other with the nuts on opposite ends. |
