Ok....i understand your scenario. Some specifics though; i assume using the 11mm dynamic climbing rope as the anchor. Now how much weight on the anchor? and then nick the one eight or start with a 10% cut or ?.....

If your just going to want body weight then cut....i wouldn't think the anchor will fail. But i think you want 'heavy weight' the anchor then pull to destruction.

I use to use the double eight alot when i climbed.
