    Unicender glitch

    Burnham, we need to hookup some time and climb a few big trees. I can't believe how much SRT and the Uni have changed the way I climb. Less effort and a hole lot more fun.

    This is a phobia I just don't get. Where do you draw the line? Do you clip in with two carabiners because one might fail? It is just not logical. It would be like having a backup knot for your backup knot on cordage. I have two Unis from Rock Exotica. One I have been using for 9 months...
