How to Tie and Store a Rescue Webbing Loop

The Webbing Loop with a "Key" style carabiner has numerous utility and rescue applications. It's a very low cost piece of equipment that can be purchased for around $17.00. The options for deployment are only limited by the ingenuity of the individual carrying it. As long as the webbing loop is tied and stored properly it can be a very useful and unobtrusive piece of equipment.

The webbing shown in the video was 20 feet of 1 inch tubular - Which makes a 9 foot loop. Tubular webbing has a MBS (minimum breaking strength) of 4,000 pounds. You could also use 1 inch flat webbing which has an MBS of 5,000 pounds.
