Locking Munter

[@jeffreywright6992]

This is absolutely incredible! I'm filing this video away in the "game-changer" category. I've only tried to auto-lock a munter the other way (floating biner locked into heart and load strand) which adds way too much friction and is pretty useless, imo. The method in this video only adds a slight amount of friction for all of the auto-locking benefit! Thanks so much

This is incredible, thank you!
In my testing, one way to make the setup more stable and prevent failure from the blocking carabiner falling through is to girth hitch both together at the anchor. The more they are loaded the more they will want to stay aligned.
You might want a carabiner that is slightly larger as the carabiner that acts as a lock to make this less likely.
Finally, you do not need an HMS carabiner for the carabiner that locks the munter. A D will work just fine

Looks like a great technique. What’s the best way to lower if this is loaded?

[@kevinheinrich8443]

Looks like this method fails if the "backside" carabiner goes through the munter carabiner.

Is this hitch functionally the same as a garda? Any reason to prefer one over the other?
