New standard ridge line method (improvised jungle knot?)
Still a work in progress. What would you call this system? And what stop knots should I try next?
I saw a couple of negative comments on my last ridge line video about how I was trying to “reinvent the wheel” so I decided to do it again. Haha eat your heart out. I’ve got ideas for days

This might mark the beginning on an entire playlist I have planned specifically for bow and drill/friction fire. *roll of tape is not necessary is not necessary if you remember to crush the shell immediately after using the gunpowder. Attempting to fire this altered ammunition will cause malfunction in your firearm* What do you all think?

    Awesome! I prefer the Ashley Stopper Knot because it's so quick and easy and is a bit bulkier than the diamond. Dressing the Diamond Knot is also time consuming. I use the Ashley for my soft shackles too. You can even tie them inline like a daisy chain. 😎👍🏼

    I like you take of a quick ridge line. In away it's a step-up from your typical ridge-line since you do away with the trucker's hitch. I do wished you had shown how you attached the metal hook to your bolin knot. I also liked how you used your metal hook and a pressic knot for your guy lines. Again, I wished you had shown how you attached your metal tent stake to your guy line. A very nice approach for setting up a shelter. Will have to start cataloguing these different ways in creating these ridge-lines and guy-lines. (This the 4th different version in setting up a ridge-line and a guy-line.) Thanks for sharing your technique. Kalvin N from Eastern Canada

    I like how there are sooo many ways doing a ridgeline and guide lines, I´m using carabiners on my ridgeline instead of hooks. I did however follow you directions on the guide lines, I really liked the way of using prusik loops and it makes it so easy for adjustments

  • @jacquesmerde3282
    @jacquesmerde3282 3 місяці тому

    I really like the guy line idea. You can adjust the tension from underneath the tarp in bad weather. One modification I did for hammock camping was to attach the line to the first tree with the hook attached to another prussik loop and hook it into a bowline tied at the end of the rope. That way, I can run my tree straps through the opening like I do on the "trucker's hitch" side. Subscribed!!

    i suggest for the 1st tree : just a loop at the end of the main line and the hook on a prusik loop, that will connect to the loop that goes around the tree

    That should work but others wrap the tarp in a figure 8 around the stick. And I’ve seen others use a marlinspike hitch. Not sure if that’s easy to undo. I haven’t abused my poncho or basha as hammocks yet. But I’m planning to… someday.

  • @paddor
    @paddor 6 місяців тому

    Now that’s amazing. Third advantage: You don’t need to find toggles. I’m gonna upgrade my prusik loops. Thanks!

  • @paddor
    @paddor 6 місяців тому

    Pretty cool system. I’ve been trying to stay away from systems with fixed toggles/carabiners/hooks though. Kusk bushcraft explains a nice way to tie the ridgeline and guy lines using a single knot (it’s slipped overhand around the standing line). Then on the stake side I just use a marlinspike hitch. That knot is faster than you can see, AND it removes dirt from the peg after pulling them out (provided they’re round). It’s not exactly adjustable, just place the stake where you need it. If I need adjustability, there’s always the taut line hitch. Great video btw!

  • @BUZZKILLJRJR
    @BUZZKILLJRJR 6 місяців тому

    This is pretty awesome I did the same kind of idea but I put toggles on the end a longer pressic loop, at the end of the loop a toggle. The same way you did by making a bite then passing the toggle back through the loop to hold my tarp in place or the end of my line.

    • @biranit50
      @biranit50 6 місяців тому

      I combined 2 systms . On the 1st anchor (tree?) I use a bowline at the end of the line and a following sliding toggle on the main line, and on the other end your system with the hook on the prusik loop. Works like a charm .The toggle mecanism is more versatile, suits also small anchors where the hook might fall off.

  • @biranit50
    @biranit50 6 місяців тому

    at 5:08: if you use a bight instead of the end of the line you can avoid the unwanted knot when tou finish the deploy.

  • @TheOpenboater

    Great video and some really good tips and tricks. The one thing I would do differently is to suspend my Tarp under the ridge line with mini carabiners so that the tarp doesn't come into contact with the ridge line. The movement of the tarp when draped over the line will eventually cause wear on the tarp that we can do without.

    You can easily make your own hooks with a wire bender, which is also easily made with a piece of wood and some metal pins, pieces of dowel rod or nails with the heads cut off. It is cheaper to buy a small.length of wire or just use old wire coat hangers

    i sugget an overhand stopper knot at the edge of the line

  • @pedroclaro7822
    @pedroclaro7822 10 місяців тому

    keep a tiny loop at the tip of the stopper knot. when you poke the stopped through the other knot, leave the loop behind, that way you can just pull the loop to undo the jungle knot.

    • @pedroclaro7822
      @pedroclaro7822 10 місяців тому

      And, I'd do a figure8 knot instead of the overhand, as the middle knot - not harder to tie and it conserves much more cordage strength

  • @pedroclaro7822
    @pedroclaro7822 10 місяців тому

    10/10! Different setup, interesting and innovative. I’ll use the hooks and setup with the stake attached to my optional guylines. The ones I keep on the tarp permanently I have installed a bit of elastic cord on the tarp to keep tension as it gets wet and expands slightly, and then plastic tensioners on those thst I can adjust just as easily as the Prussik knots. (But they probably wear out the guyline faster because they depend on a single line being bent and held through friction). For the ridgeline I use jungle knots instead of the hooks - as show by Frank Bush in his “Ultimate ridgeline system”. they work like rope shackles. I’ll keep this cuz I have already ordered the cordage to do so, It’ll end up lighter (probably) and I can fold the ridgeline in the tarp without worrying about it being punctured. A continuous ridgeline is better cuz you can use it to hang stuff under the tarp, and it’s an extra safety between you and a widow maker. Thank you so much for the great video. Super informative and concise. Love it
