Testing dyneema slings

This video shows two tests of dyneema slings. The tests involve dropping a 70 kg dummy in factor 2 falls, while it is anchored to a sling that has been shortened using different techniques. Both examples show that dyneema slings may not always be used with the standard knots developed for nylon slings.

The tests were performed by Nils Ragnar Gustavsson, Martin Urby, Calle Martins and Per Forsberg.
