You're the first person I've seen in the tree world spill an overhand knot to tie the bowline. Quickest way in my opinion and easiest to remember for a beginner. Only one step left after you spill it.

You had me at Nifty..... Joking aside, I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you.

Knots are one of the coolest parts of tree work:)

@TreeMuggs_PatrickM Год назад

Agreed, the average person on the street can barely tie their shoes

@@TreeMuggs_PatrickM haha! Some of us like myself grew up before the grand age of Velcro sneakers 😁

I independently came up with this method of tying the bowline many years ago but still had to remember the "rabbit hole" method for when I needed to teach the bowline to others

Great video. You explain things in great detail! Climb safe.💪

I practice tying bowlines around myself, around objects, bitter end on either side. It’s such an important knot, you need to know it inside and out.

@DavidBoschGR Год назад

Yes!

Brilliant tutorial. Thanks for all of your entertaining and helpful videos!

@georgioskarakassopoulos9818 Год назад

Love it! When I started I was told to practice tying knots in any direction from any position. One of the best pieces of advice I ever got. This tutorial perfectly ties in to that (no pun intended).

@dankotos61 Год назад

That's really neat. I never thought of it that way

Thank you for the content!

@falkrybak3654 Год назад

perfect introduction

@leolechasseur8817 Год назад

Thank you. Its much easier this way

@jaredeberly9724 Год назад

Your bowline technique is much easier than what I learned. I like the “cowboy” method where the tag line finishes on the outside of the loop; more so for the running bowline where it’s contracting in the piece. Love the vids and love the IG

@TreeMuggs_PatrickM Год назад

thank you

@bobwiese6128 Год назад

Well done Sir, thanks! 😊 Nifty indeed.

@briancrossley1710 Год назад

As it's in the end of the rope I would just tie it the normal way and then turn it around. Saves having to remember two ways and potentially getting it wrong.

@TreeMuggs_PatrickM Год назад

What if you had to tie it around a post?

@georgioskarakassopoulos9818 Год назад

I guess you can always turn your back to the post and tie it the conventional way. 😅

@@TreeMuggs_PatrickM I honestly do not have any problem tying a bowline around a post whilst facing the post. If you follow the 'rabbit hole/tree' procedure it's so easy and I've done it hundreds of times. The issue with a bowline, and why many (rock) climbers don't use it, is that it can be tied incorrectly and will then fall apart. In that case if a tree/rock climber is having difficulty I guess they shouldn't be using this knot and should find another method e.g. re-threaded figure eight. It's great that you continue to make these instructional videos as so many others are just about cutting branches off. Thanks.
