The courses here are not for personal use, they follow the ACCT (Association for Challenge Course Technology) standards which are primarily for ropes courses and commercial situations. They are conservative so as to avoid potential law suits. Most of the people who go through the courses are not climbers; but, as a result they have misconceptions about aluminum equipment. I don't have a problem with the commercial standards, just the resultant impression placed on people who don't know any better.
Links?? I've looked on BD's site and found some stuff, but I never found the article about the dropped biners at Yosemite. I'm looking for primary sources, not other people copying what a primary source said without a link.
Thanks though
