....better and more useful info than the patronizingly insulting Trad Tech Tip and the absolutely banal and thinly veiled advertisement for the A$$hole Fund that is the Sport Tech Tip.

You can click here to read my Tech Tip in Climbing Magazine about using the figure-8 within the butterfly for joining together two fixed ropes.

I rather like Mike Clelland's drawing:

I would also suggest you click here to Ask Dr. Pee'd On ... about the Better Way to pass a knot on rappel. This post is actually quite useful, and contains some really cool diagrams drawn by Bob Shaftoe. The second page of this post is particularly good.

Cheers,

Dr. Piton

Ahoy! A thread about Pete and his technical knowledge!

Gonna go pop some kettle corn and pull up a bean bag for the ensuing show. 7 pages of flames? 14? 28?

I hear squealing in the distance... getting... closer...
