3.2. Extending Quickdraws

Use the sling to extend quickdraws, reducing rope drag and allowing the rope to run more freely. Thread the sling through the bolt hanger or protection point, then attach a carabiner to each end of the sling, ensuring the rope runs through the lower carabiner.

3.3. Anchor Building

The 120 cm length is suitable for creating equalized anchors. Ensure the sling is properly distributed across anchor points to share the load effectively. Avoid creating angles greater than 60 degrees between anchor arms, as this significantly increases forces on the anchor points.

The sling can be used as a personal tether for self-belay or positioning. Always ensure it is connected to a secure point on your harness and the anchor. Avoid using it as a dynamic lanyard for fall arrest, as Dyneema has very low stretch and can generate high impact forces.
