For top roping it's considered good practice to construct your own anchor to run the rope through. By running the rope through your own draws/carabiners, you're not putting excess wear on the chains. This is a popular climbing area; if everyone top roped through the chains, they would become dangerously sharp quite quickly and require replacing, which is labor intensive.
Great video, Thanks Climb on
Hey man, was just there last week, great video
At the time, this was the setup that were were taught. However, after learning a bit more, we realized shock loading could occur if one bolt failed in this setup, possibly causing the other bolt to fail. I don't think the use of only one sling is necessarily the problem. We should have tied a knot in the sling, creating a master point, to reduce/eliminate shock loading if a bolt failed. Thanks for watching and commenting.
At rappelling it's safer if you use a prusik block and you have to tie two knots at the end of the rope beacuse if you reach one of them you fall! Thanks the video :)

CH4 was my first outdoor lead climb
When your cleaning unclip from the wall first and clip to your harness. Then unclip from the rope. So if you drop the quick draw it will stay on the rope and not kill your belayer. Cool vid tho thx
Just a question about redundancy, should there only be one nylon/dynema for the top roping sling? Everything else looked redundant.
at 40:50 that is actually backclipped
What kind of GoPro were you using to tape this,
so basically you don't use the end of the two chains when doing top rope? you always do this method shown on the video?

Some bad rope work here people!! Was anyone else cringing watching him untie.
This was posted 7 years ago but here goes. I hope you're more proficient with your clipping and at the anchors. When this was filmed you should not be the one setting up top rope anchors. Get rid of those skinny draws, they twist like in the video and make it tough to see if you're backclipped. Plus they don't last as long as say a Petzl dogbone. Also, lose the belay biner at the anchors, its too big. Just trying to help. Nice video.
Don't think so.
