The new Sherrill catalog shows the longer eye splice girth hitched to the carabiner. Since I have read that this is a weaker attachment, I'm wondering if it's true in this case too? Is it the fact the bend is reduced with the doubled line that makes this OK? Or, is there enough strength in the rope that giving up some is still OK?
Is it OK to simply put the carabiner through the loop? It would seem that you would be increasing the risk of side loading the carabiner.
Thanks for all your help.
