In reply to Basemetal:
I remember discussing this a while ago, the grivel springy leash system (as used in the video) is quite a novelty.
From the discussion it seemed apparent that the system is actually designed to be used as a V, with the leash looped to one axe and clipped to the other. There was some novel reason for this to do with making transitions easier from technical terrain with two tools to easier terrain where only one is required.
The L set up as shown seems quite OK with the leash being looped to the harness and clipped to both tools instead. Tho I only tried it on the deck, it seems most likely the L system would play havoc with getting wrapped or twisted around the rope - more so than the V system.
The interesting note from the earlier thread on this was that the grivel description states that the carabiners are supposed to be attached to the axes - ie because grivel copy/pasted the description from the version without the rotating carabiner on their website. So it is easy to assume that the L system is how it is supposed to be used.
As a side note, this incorrect description seems apparent on most websites selling the 2.0 leash, but no description is evident on the grivel website.
