Climbing and highlining the Totempole HD 11-Apr-2013 At 1:46:01 PM sliamese

He jsut had the wrong size, is a good crack! smaller cams are needed for the top, green and red C3's are useful.

Thats a crap way of rigging the highline!! 8mm U's cant stand up to cross-loading like that, they bend!! It wasn't a super tight line so that helps lower the loads. When i rigged it we equalised both sides, and ran the back up onto some cams as well. You will see they had the line on one set, the rope on another.

Bloody oath having three bolts is justified, suggesting otherwise shows a pretty big lack of awareness of standard rigging principles, safety margins etc.
