Clipped bolt plate came off carrot bolt |

Hi all,
Has anybody who climbed 14 Carrot Gold in the Blueys notice if the carrots look a bit smaller than normal?
I've finished the climb and had the belay station at the top ready to bring the second...
I started to pull the rope, and after a few good pulls my wife had the first quickdraw with the clipped bolt plate in her hands...
We all know that the draws move a lot when pulling the rope from the top...
But still, a clipped bolt plate (with a proper binner) should never come off the carrot, right?
The binner clipped onto the bracket was a Dynotron from the BD livewire draws...
I've read the post from mikllaw "A small study of unclipping from keyhole hangers" and saw that Petzl spirits have issues with boltplates... Maybe Dynotron binners have the same issue?
On my way down I stopped to inspect a few carrots including the first one (which the bracket came off from). All carrots on that route have the same size and did not have the edges grind.
They definitely look a bit smaller... Any comments? |
