A look at a boutique rope technique
Nice review of F & F. I must say, my favorite part may have been your short but profound reflection at the end and how F & F may eliminate some (if not all) of the comradery involved in a team-ascent.
I wonder if there is some big table like this one https://ropeaccessandregulation.files.wordpress.com/2016/03/accident-analysis-rds-to-january-2015.pdf but for sport climbing - I'm mostly interested about technical description of the main fail point (like "sling caught in the micro traxion with no second device")
That's a really interesting PDF. I think it shows that no matter how much though goes into keeping people safe, people will always be thoughtless in their own safety. Have you seen these pages on the AAC? https://americanalpineclub.org/news/tag/Accidents+in+North+American+Climbing
Another reason I don't ever clean (any) windows...

Exactly.
