It\u2019s hard to say from how many skyhooks an anchor point can be considered &#8220;safe.&#8221; But I like to use two skyhooks with an aramid accessory cord as one questionable point. In the comments, some suggested tying a knot in the sling for redundancy&#8230; but I prefer to use a second or even third set instead. With elastic prusik loops made from shock cord, the hooks stay under tension and don\u2019t fall to the ground with the slightest movement.<\/p>\n<p>This way of creating an anchor point is very unconventional and almost never necessary. As soon as you have removable doors, wall openings, bullet holes, furniture, or several colleagues\/comrades, there are many, many other options that are significantly safer and often even faster. Still, it\u2019s not a bad idea to keep this method in your rope technique toolbox.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-wrap\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sketchy Hook Rappel - Why I did not add a Knot\" width=\"200\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gmcS7FSsieI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Controversial and specific \u2013 I advise against imitation.
