How to avoid twisted ropes

The #1 reason why your rope get twisted is when you are lowered down from an anchor with two fixed points on the same height. The longer the horizontal distance, the worse. When bolting an anchor with only rings, the bolts should not be placed on the same height. The idea for the article has come from a recent UKC article showing the opposite! If you want to tope rope in an anchor with the rings on the same height, you could place just one carabiner in one ring and a long quick draw in the other ring. There is no trick to avoid twisting the rope once you have cleaned the anchor if you not bring a tube and rappel down yourself. Further more, take your time to uncoil your rope coming from the factory a couple times as most of them come heavily twisted causing some 10 min frustration just when you want to start climbing.
