Actually, this is an old Samurai trick. Used in the martial art of Hojo jutsu. It was a way to make cord availible to tie someone up very quick.

keep in mind all that this is not good only for paracord, but for cables too, until now i used to just wind the cables around my fist, pull it off, and set it aside then waste time untangling it, from now on im starting to do it this way :) thanks alot paul.

What is the longest length of paracord that you recommend for this method?

[tob9595]

Well done. Sound could be a tad improved on...next time :)

KEY is keep the ends out of the nest.

Thanks for presenting this
