Fair enough. I use the Web similarly I suppose.

This is what I use: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqBTV16dpN0

Instead of beginning with a girth-hitch on the leg loop, you can just clip both ends of the cord sling into the biner. I've verified both of these setups with two very experienced climbers.

For cord I use 6 mm. With the backup below the ATC it's important to have the right size sling. I find a 5 ft length of 6mm cord is perfect. This is on my 10.5mm rope.
