Sailing knots - How to tie a Rolling Hitch- The International Marine Book of Sailing - Robby Robinson - 0070532257

I third the notion--the load is being pulled to the wrong side or the rolling hitch should have been tied the other way. Obviously, it also isn't logical to apply additional load to a cleat when the application usually is the other way, say to release a cleat or fix a winch overrun.

taught line hitch......pulling backwards

You are putting the tension on the hitch backwards. That sort of error can cause no end of trouble. Get it right before someone gets hurt..

I think you guys over the pond need to learn to tie a real rolling hitch before you tell others how.

This is the second video that is wrong.

thanks.
