30seconds With Ropelab 3 Grigri - Detailed Analysis & Overview

Many rope access technicians claim that we can not use a I think this is the easiest way to convert a What angles should we accept with carabiner loading and how does this change the strength? I have never understood why this knot is taught. I see no practical use for it. A rope running through a carabiner can be converted to a Munter (or Italian) Hitch with one simple move. I often use toothed rope grabs for hauling loads however I think carefully about how they will be used and the loads they will see.
