I might have been ok with this except the guy wasn't holding on to the rope all the time either. He kept letting go to turn around and talk to his friends. Apparently he figured the grigri would catch the fall, but if the leader would've fallen the webbing would have slid up the tree at least 20' to the first branch.
Do you think belayer was a n00b ?
Cause I think ,he thought you were "THE Noob" by wondering about his belay setup.
edit:
Curt, Hey curt, you still got your belay foot rock picture ?
