Visit my shop at This hitch is similar to one used in rock climbing. It’s a good one to know if you’re ever moving furniture or you need to lower a heavy item down from a window or elevated height.

I've never seen a Super Munter Hitch tied using this technique, but it's perfect for a closed anchor system and definitely worth keeping in the technique toolbox. One word of caution, it abraids rope quickly so if using to handle delicate or important loads, switch the rope out after a few uses to avoid a failure.

This same hitch will work because it's just a Munter hitch with an extra wrap. As you pull with the other end, the hitch flips around and you can go the other direction. The version in the video however will feel like it's flipping twice because of the 2 wraps it has. For lighter boxes, the standard Munter hitch will be good enough.

For mechanical advantage, a quick way is to use two ratchet straps in parallel. Ratchet one up until the spool is full; then the second one ratchets up, then unspool the first, rinse and repeat, etc.

Cool, after seeing this button hook connector thing I found a very cool knot. I call it "The security button hook". It forms a friction hitch around the cord that goes to the stopper. Maybe use a bit bigger loop for this and after laying something in the button hook, close it as usual but this time just wrap the stopper knot a few times around the cord it went by as it went through the loop (the loops cord). Wrap it around 2 - 3 times in one direction and then pull the stopper knot to straighten the cord that goes to the stopper knot. Then you can slide the cords that go around the cord that goes to the stopper knot, away from the stopper knot and it will stay there if you start to load this "connection"

Another option is to just use a Munter Hitch. It does not have as much stopping braking power but I imagine it is sufficient for lowering boxes.

And the munter is reverable, so you can just switch loadbearing ends when lowering several items.

Super munter is used like the regular munter hitch to belay your partner in case you've lost your grigri. It provides more friction and will not twist your rope like the regular one...instead of learning how to tie the two orientation you can give slack and pull on the loaded size, it will "reverse" itself into place like the munter hitch, just with an extra movement

2:06 The angle of the triangle is more than 90°. Each anchor point is supporting much more weight than if you had only used one anchor point.

I’m glad someone else spotted this. I don’t know how much weight he’ll be lowering at once. Also putting a noggin between the parts of the roof timbers would help reduce any risk that they pull together or twist.

I like this for light loads, but it looks like the friction passing through the loop could cut through the line with more weight or letting it go too fast. I would only use it as you did and even then make sure nothing can hit a person or cause damage.

@Changtent
@Changtent 5 месяцев назад
I enjoy your videos, and some very interesting content thanks. However, at 2:01 the anchor rigging is wrong and could be dangerous if using it with heavy loads. Forming a Triangle puts enormous tension on the horizontal line which can cause your metal anchor eyes to pull the screws out. A much better practice is to tie off each end to one metal eye, thereby forming a "V" shape omitting the horizontal line. This method prevents any pulley action which stresses the metal eyes. The "V" shape rigging 'should' be less than 90-degrees. Reference: Rigger's Handbook

@en1982thedog
@en1982thedog 10 месяцев назад
both the munter hitch or this one the super munter flips over when you reverse directions so it can go either way, up or down , very useful hitch. the super munter just adds more friction to the load to control it easier. having pulleys to help with the weight to lift it up would help if the kayaks are heavy. this hitch will not give you a mechanical advantage to lift though, it is just a friction hitch to contol decent or stop the rope easier when going up or down. dan

@Ziraya0
@Ziraya0 10 месяцев назад
I'm a little worried about this one. This is a climbing knot, as everybody else is pointing out, and paracord isn't safe for climbing. Not because paracord isn't strong enough, you could make a cord thick enough and it still wouldn't be safe, because paracord melts from friction in knots like this if there's enough load. It helps that you have it tied on a smooth steel shackle, I think you'd start to see the cord deteriorating at much lower loads if it was tied on a loop or a branch. You're not climbing, but dropping stuff can be dangerous too.

@bloodgain
@bloodgain 10 месяцев назад
@@Ziraya0 Fair point. This is clearly meant for relatively light loads, and no one should ever be standing below an object being lowered. But I do agree that friction failure is one of the major downsides to paracord. What would you suggest? Braided nylon (e.g. dock rope), maybe? Climbing-rated rope is far too expensive. Most people won't have it around, and I doubt climbers will use their good rope to get down the Xmas decorations.
@Ziraya0
@Ziraya0 10 месяцев назад
@@bloodgainI would suggest caution and awareness. Monitor the rope's condition, and stay cognizant of each load's weight; the line of safety is somewhere between 50lbs and 1 typical human. Keep speeds low so that stops are always gentle and heat is generated slowly. Maybe set up another climbing knot like a prussik or a klemheist, anchored to the attic, so by default there is tension available to lock this hitch. Still a knot to be careful with, but the biggest enemy here is speed and making sure the whole situation defaults to locked will help prevent speed. My biggest worry is that the video doesn't bring up this context, and I for sure almost always take what I learn here and figure out how to apply it to my bespoke situation. I don't expect people to know the breadth of minutia that parasitizes my brain, it's not even reasonable to expect people to understand what rope load ratings in lbs actually mean (and why therefore climbing ropes aren't rated in weights)
