Video # 2 of 2 (We had to rush this one due to imminent lightning strikes). A common alternate rigging technique is to hard-tie the belay line directly to the head of the litter, then hard-tie the main line separately to both sides of the litter near its center of gravity & route the two strands through carabiners on each side near the head of the litter. This eases the rigging burden by eliminating the extra steps needed to rig a V-strap as well as promoting constant tension in the main line during the Pike & Pivot transition. However, the down-side is that you lose the adjustable orientation features of the 4-pt litter bridle.
Corrections:
1. The edge protection should have been secured better, and the head of the litter should have been closer to the edge prior to connecting the V-Strap.
