Rigging Anchors for Balanced Load 29-Jan-2014 At 1:00:30 PM Goshen
Message
interesting... so...

slackliners had better get their anchors pretty right if the line is tight (160-170deg)!

up to 90degress is fine (it's what we're all told), especially for top belays; but

focal point in the video is a ring (or mallion would be the same); but if it's a carabiner - beware that it would be a 'cross loaded' carabiner at any angle greater than 90deg? So use 2 carabiners to a sling / rope focal point.

projected load lines is interesting too - in climbing the 'load line' would rarely be 'bicecting the angle'... I'm learning lots of new technology :-) But it's obvious I'd imagine that the ancor receiving the highest load line had better be a good one.
