Backpacker Rope Coil

[iliketoeatpies]

start from the centre, and chuck lengths behind neck, then just leave a length. less faff

[Woodenarrows]

Cool...

[BobbyJones686]

??? This looks to be the Over Done Version, There's a Much easier way. and why Coil with your Neck? So weird! But whatever floats your Rope Coiling Boat!

[uno50bmg]

@BobbyJones686 Neck coiling is the better way for long 300+ rope. Nothing weird unless your experience is limited. The only change I do is not to cross rope over chest. I just run straight down to my waist and tied around. Load remains very secure and comfortable. We use static line which is not as soft but this method never gets complaints. Good Video!

[crossbike]

thank you for perfect demonstration!

[woodskid4ever]

Easily understood and well done. Thanks!

[Claretcross]

Great Video

[TheLimbReaper]

Nice, plain and simple video. I'd like to add this link to my ropeaccessblog if I could,; PM me if you'd like it. Everyone has a little different "twist" to their rope storage. I may be making a new vid. this weekend on the subject. Thanks

Dude.......sweet!

[scarekr0]

Awesome!

[nutellaontoast]

Thanks for the instructions mate. So much less annoying than most internettube instructions videosssssss.

[griefer1]

hey whenever i coil my rope it turns out that one end is really nice and one end is really messy. i do a different technique than you; just a normal hand coil but why is it turning out that way? thanks.

[valkyrieend]

strange how you can come up with something and think it is original ad then see someone else do it! i use almost that exact technique to attatch my rope to my hunting/hiking pack!

[soggieshorts1]

i have this same rope and use this method of coiling

[germanninja101]

Awesome!

[DeathFirst5]

Pretty kool video!

[5thenickle]

THANKS! I'm a firefighter/paramedic in MD and also a born to learn survivalist, and not only did I take notes on this (and many other of your videos) for myself, I also bring a lot of this rope work back to the station and share it during weekly drills, it has helpes a lot and we find that this method is extremely profficient for what we do in the field, THANKS AGAIN!

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

AWESOME! I literally just got back from Frederick MD last night... I have some family out there. I also have some military / law enforcement friends in that area... we all like to get together for BBQs when we are together... if you want to come to the next one, send me a message and I'll tell you more... glad you liked the video!

[betterThanYoda]

thanks for uploading that, I'm pretty new to rock climbing so its handy to know how to carry my rope! Out of interest is that how you would carry it if you were seconding a multi-pitch and you needed to carry another rope up for the second pitch?

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Hey, well typically the 2nd rope would for getting down if you needed to do a super long rappel... which I almost never do... but, if I or my partner is hauling a rope, I first stack it on the ground and then tie one end to my harness... that way you are not lugging the whole weight and bulk of the rope up every step of the climb... it just feeds out from the pile real nice and easy and doesn't cause you clutter problems on the climb. Then you just pull it up when you get to the belay station.

im england wwe call i a reef knot. thats why i like watching videos about rope work because i find out so much different names for the same knot; keep it up!

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Thanks! Will do!

[focusedwolf]

i was doing some web searching and i commonly see it called a reef knot.

I used to called it a square knot ever since a teacher in a highschool gym class called it a square knot... however... when i checked out the "ashley book of knots"... i found something that might indicate that when you take a reef not and collapse it a bit and tighten... that "this" is called a square knot.

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Thank you so much! I appreciate it!

[talatori]

its been a long time since ive said "WOW ive learnd somthing" you have taught me thank you,

[Climbnkayakr08]

Thanks for the video man. I finally figured this coil out thanks to your video. The other videos on this, with more hits than yours, suck. They both go way to fast and you cant understand what they are saying. I dont know why yours has less hits but this video rocks as far as coiling ropes goes!

[HedgehogLeatherworks]

Awesome!!! Glad you enjoyed it, and I hope you will enjoy some of the other videos!

Kind regards,

Paul
