Beginner here I have same thought while my trainer does that but when I drive solo I switch to all through the winch Now again this helps a lot Thanks for the video
Used the 'through' short strap all of my flatbed days. Never a problem. Only unsafe thing I did, which was ok if nobody was around, was I kept half my straps rolled up with the hooks 'in' so could throw all straps down one side since my trailer had winches down both sides. Alternate hook in, hook out. A little time saver. I don't like seeing winches with all the straps rolled for storage out in the elements. That will rot the whole mess. Thanks for the informative video.
