The best i have seen on the tube imo

 

Wat's is his setup for the accent, can't realy see on the vid, looks like a srt access line, then he sends up his climbing line and clips the kong into both, is that right?

Mark sets his static line like a SRT system, then attaches his climbing line with a Hitch Climber and friction hitch already in place to an alpine butterfly. This setup isolates the two legs of the rope so the two cams on the ascender (currently Mark uses a Petzl Ascentree) can work independtly thus acting as a backup. This also allows his climbing rope and system to be waiting for him, as Mark mentioned in the video, when he gets the top.
