But we were talking about equalising, well you were In reply to: "Or, better yet, use a pre-equalized, fixed, focused anchor using a somewhat dynamic nylon cordalette with double strands to each piece and tied into a master point so the load is as distributed as evenly as possible." Since you (wisely) donīt trust the word equalised I notice itīs been dropped and now we are just on a "fixed, focused load-sharing anchor system" which sounds like a bit of jargon to describe loads of gear tied together somehow. But load sharing? To join a load of bits of gear together I would use anything suitable to hand and normally use the climbing rope and some slings. My way is better because it is focused(on me) pre-tensioned (by me) has inertial damping (from me) and requires no knowledge at all! So that will be a Beer-Gut Inertially Stabilised Age-related Macular Degeneration Slighly Focused Belaying System using my Whatever Iīve Got Left Over Belay Kit. Jim
