  • hard to follow - zoom in and slow down for a training video man!

  • haw do you get that thing in and out of rock

  • What a useless video and poor instructor...

  • I just want to now how to rig a top rope, obviously don't trust this from the comments below. Anyone know a good vid?>

  • You spoon.

  • the "half hitch" was not even a htich it was half of a fishermens knot

  • Well gee, I guess now I know everything I need to know to set up a toprope anchor. What the hell is wrong with people; a video about two knots does not an anchor tutorial make.

  • useless video. no real direction considering the title

  • A clove hitch is a hitch, not a knot. This whole video is confusing, it helps to teach hitches and knots independantly. Also, buy a book and get expert instruction, before doing any of this on your own.

  • A butterfly knot is so much safer than a clove hitch.
