Some of that internet gear is not a good idea.


That's a quick link, it's OK for sport anchors, not having four strands of rope in it. Why? Because it doesn't have a gate. If that collar loosens, all bets are off. This is 9MM canyoneering rope, it is not static, the climber better have his feet more than six feet off the ground to avoid decking out. This is the kind of stuff you see when people search the web or just shopping sites. You can buy mystery carabiners and ropes but it won't end well.
