Veteran climbing instructor Adam Fox demonstrates proper use of an extended rappel device with
an autoblock backup. A double-length nylon sling is threaded through both harness tie-in points and
tied with an overhand knot for redundancy. The rappel device is the Black Diamond ATC Guide in
rappel mode. The autoblock knot is clipped to a locking carabiner attached to the belay loop.
