Anyone have some experience/science based info on the best (safest) rope config for longer (>100 metre) raps ? Have 2 ropes = 10.5 mm x 60M dynamic & 11 mm x 50 M static & belay device choice of Gri Gri/Fig 8/DNM Bug. Is it best (convention ?) to have the static rope or dynamic rope tied to the top anchor. What is the max no of joined ropes/rap length before (unwanted) "sh!t happens" ? (assume utilising back up prusiks/daisy chains/Jumars @ knot pass points)
