The other issue the 3rd prussic solves over a tied loop is a short distance between trees when you may have to move a prussic past the loop before tying to get enough mechanical advantage, you could tackle from the 2nd loop and toggle a tarp with the 3rd so you don’t need to attempt finite adjustment of where the tackle loop is verses where the tarp may land between the trees
Love how you’re never afraid to let your techniques evolve, Dave. Thanks.
It is amazing, that this morning a thousand men all over the globe go to their gardens to play with ropes. Great job Dave. Godspeed.
Who else watched this 100x? Awesome vid Dave
Your enthusiasm when explaining the process in this particular video is both infectious and understandable. It’s not every day such a simple change to accepted practices can make such a quality of life improvement.
This is why you're the best bushcraft teacher alive today. Thanks Dave.
I love this technique, but my favorite part of this video is the excitement and joy on your face while demonstrating. You sir are truly a blessing 🙏
I love the fact that no matter how experienced you are there’s always something new you can learn if you stay vigilant; how many ridge lines have you tied in your life? 10,000? 100,000? And STILL there’s more to learn…
I've been "into" knots for years, first owning a sailboat and then more knots when I started watching bushcraft channels. This is the first time I've seen this! It's amazing. It seems to have all the best properties of a knot: Easy to tie, easy to untie, holds when tied, holds under load, works with different size line, etc. Well done, Dave. Thanks for sharing it.
Your excitement about this is palpable.
And I can see why. This might just be the start of a global change in line tensioning. Ridgelines, guylines, washing lines, hell, any line.
It's a Eureka moment.
I'll certainly be using it from now on.
Great work, Dave.
THIS is why I continue to be a fan. Real applications, actual descriptions, and how to use things. It’s crazy to think people actually think some random chick showing her headlights is a real survivalist.
Thank you so much! I'm always looking for ways that I as a small, 67-year-old woman can get out there and do stuff. This is so simple and clear. Can't wait to set up my hammock tarp now.
As a person that moved goods daily by truck and trailer, we used those knots for 30 years. I am 65 and still use them to cynch down things on the truck or trailer. Many other uses in the field as well.
Thanks for the reminder
Another thing that is overlooked is the friction involved in these type scenarios. One can actually create enough pressure/friction to cut through (at the least, damage) the surface of the loop being used. A small quick link in the loop creates a smoother surface for the 2:1, enabling quicker/smoother take up of slack, but eliminates the risk of cord damage.
This is the best trucker's hitch hands down! What a phenomenal technique! Thank you sir!
And I was just getting to prepare my new Rapid Deployment Ridge Line this afternoon. Thanks Dave. Glad to see your nogin is still in prime working order. Gives faith to the rest of us that ours still works good too!. Well, I still have lost a substantial amount of my creative superpower, all of it if you ask my kids. I can't seem to convince them that wanting to live in the woods, chase little animals, hugs the trees, all of it, is actually the most sane anyone can get!
Beautiful! Wow! The folks down under are genius! I lived in New Zealand for 10 years and was always learning something new in bushcraft after thinking it was backward at first but come to find out it was different and more practical. Dave, I will practice this now. I am glad you are constantly researching new methods of survival and bushcraft but most importantly you bring it back to all of us without making it a big members-only secret. Thanks! You need to do another survival show on your terms now and with your people. I would watch every episode.😊
I don't think I've ever seen you that excited. Love it! You can really tell how passionate you are about this stuff. Thanks for sharing! I've learned a ton from you over the past several years.
Dave, this seems so sensible that I'm surprised that it hasn't been common knowledge for years. It seems to be a great technique for speedy ridgeline deployment. Thanks for teaching this to us!
You know, it’s amazing to see how this ridge line has evolved over the last few years. I learned it from the channel when at the fixed end all the cordage was run through the bowline. Also, Dave did a video years ago on putting a figure 8 loop as the fixed loop for the truckers hitch. Then it evolved to using the much faster marline spike hitch on the bowline and the slip knot for the trucker’s hitch loop.
Now look at it! This is going to be called the “30 second ridge line” as taught at the Pathfinder School.
can’t wait to get out and practice these techniques! Thanks DC! Can’t wait to see what’s next!
Always up for a way to do things more efficiently. I like the prussic idea and the new tie off. Will start practicing this week so I can teach it to my Trail Life boys this weekend.
Well Dave has reinvented the wheel again !
I'm one of the nerds that actually finds this fascinating. It's amazing what can be done with simple cordage.
I've always been a time and motion kind of person. This is just another example, which has been demonstrated to me in multiple fields of work, of when someone who is totally unfamiliar and new to a particular job looks at what someone else/everyone else is doing, and comes up with an entirely new perspective on how to accomplish a task that no one has thought of before. I'm definitely going to incorporate a separate prussik loop in my quick deployment ridgeline for this purpose. Thanks for the video.
Hi Dave, your video got me thinking... I think I can come up with some tweaks. Give me a few days and I'll notify you 😁👊
Will check that !
You made me so excited. My dad taught me your newly discovered loop to tie down our truck loads. What you can do for loads is you double die your end loop it Avoids it pulling itself out and acts as a secondary tie point. Now each tie point can be individually taught as the rope finds its stretch along the trip (especially new rope)
I miss my dad, been just over a year since the Lord took him home. Thanks for this reminder of him.
You've got a new subscription. God bless you
Great technique for someone like me who never can pinch as tight as I'd like. Will be practicing this in the backyard before my next outing. Thanks Dave, you are always finding new ways to make it simple.
You just blew my mind with that with using that bite of line through the loop haha my life will not be the same after this! Thanks!!
Never seen you smile as much or be so excited over knots. 😂 Too funny. Great new improvement to the ridge line, indeed.
Thanks for explaining the difference between truckies and truckers hitches.
Lol! He’s so excited about it! That makes it even cooler!
This is pure genius. Totally deleted the 2 things I had issue with. The popping of the loop and running 5-15 feet of cordage trough twice. Thank You so much for making a more explainatory video on this after your intro short a few days ago.
Simply ingenious. I already have 3 prusik loops on my ridgeline. 2 for the tarp and 1 in the middle for a light source. I'll just add a 4th and call it good. I'll be using that setup from now on.
Incredible stuff this deserves way more likes and views this is ground breaking stuff
I'm enjoying the interaction between the different channels, who knew the future of bushcraft education was now?
I can see how excited you were while explaining this which makes me incredibly excited to go out and put this into practice too. 😊
Excellent! I think this will become the NEW STANDARD! I love it. Played around with it today and WOW! Thank you!! Blessings from Arizona!
My toy hauler started leaking in todays rain due to a crack in the overhead vent cover. I remembered this trick and threw a tarp over the top and used your technique to secure the tarp and wallah!!!.... no more rain coming inside. Thank you good sir.
I love how proud he is of his discovery. Well done man. Putzing around opens doors to new discovery.
I've never got so excited about loops in a line, as you did. It's the little things in life that counts . That's the real lesson for today.
This is that common man knowledge. Something great made even better and easier
Thw world is already better with people like you and I....you are a genius.... improving the already improved is only for proactive masters .... doing the already simple extraordinarily better.
The excitement on your face made this even more worthwhile. Stay motivated. 🇺🇸
It’s great to hear his excitement when he explains the new method, lol
Lovely done. Superb quality - informative, brief, understandable. Great job.
Always impressed the genius that is Mr Canterbury.
I accidentally discovered this once while using the standard truckers' hitch type ridgeline knot that you've taught for years and have been using it since. Its by far the fastest and easiest method I've used.
That is so great and well thought. You can see how happy Dave is with his new system.
I love how genuinely exited you clearly were to share this Dave!! Always a pleasure!
I love how excited Dave is explaining this! Great knot and explanation Dave!!
Awesome adaptation. Will be giving this a try for sure. Admittedly I was a big fan of the rolling hitch for ridge lines but this looks even better. Thanks, Dave. Hope you have a great day.
All these years and you are still excited about a ridge line. Amazing lesson.
Always learning something new, every day I am! Loved this one!
Thanks Dave. So simple but so innovative. You the man Dave!
Over the years of deploying ridge lines I have always felt there was easier way but I always got distracted from exploring what that might be. Thanks for taking the time to think it through!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and time Dave. I appreciate it.
thanks for keeping things simple Dave.
As always I learn something every time I watch your videos thank you
I love how happy and excited he is....
Absolutely brilliant. Very simple and effective.
This is great and I’m glad that I saw this before beginning to learn the traditional methods.
This is awesome. This is going to be my new go to for ridge lines.
Dave thank you so much for this. Some reason I've always had issues with the slip knot and putting tension into Ridgeline, but seeing that prusik being used instead is definitely an innovation for me. Being an Aussie we do like the "truckies hitch" and now I look forward to trying out the bite through instead of the full line. Much appreciated and love your continued developments
I thought I knew what you were doing and that's so cool I can see the excitement you showing!! How awesome Dave! I'm going to practice this !
The joy this man gets from a good knot is outstanding and infectious -- well done and cool invention!
The first "truckers hitch" I learned was the "truckee" you refer to. A guy showed it to me 30+ years ago. I have taught it to many since and have used it much. The loop that you pull through the under hand loop to secure the tackle loop can be left long and then tied in a half hitch around the standing part as a safety if you use this for securing objects for hauling. THE Creme de la Creme of this video is the way you finish...........Absolute Genius! Thanks for sharing! I love your enthusiasm in sharing this with the community. Keep up the good work.
you just made my day Thank You Dave i have been playing with the ridge line now i know what to do next 3 prusiks great idea and wow on the new knot
i love knots for these moments of brilliant simplicity. such an honest craft.
I love how excited you get while explaining this!
I just keep coming back to this jaw dropping video and continue to be amazed at how simple and fast a ridgeline it is. Innovation and creativity at its best.
Absolutely incredible! A phenomenal improvement and I love the passion and excitement you have for continuous improvement. Thanks for sharing!
I get excited just seeing Dave get excited!
I thought I had a perfect ridge line… Now it just got better.
🙏 thank you.
I have been using the third prussic loop for a while and use it for so much tbh. A couple keep my organizers from sliding on my hammock ridgeline. It allows me to adjust my food back on a 2 tree bear hang so I am not constantly redoing both anchor points to get the bag centered between the trees. Make a prussic soft/shackle hybrid and you don't even need toggles or s-biners for your tarp tieouts. So many things you can do with the simple prussic.
That bite/slippery half hitch but though is clever as hell.
That was how I learned to do It as a scout 38 years ago. Good to see It cumming around again :)
Thus just changed my Ridgeline forever. Thanks, Dave.
I wish there was an Internet and your channel when I was a Webelos leader. Your ingenuity with ropes and the general outdoors would have improved many aspects of the scouting experience. I really like your teaching methodology. This is a great video.
Love it and as well as How You gave credit to those who were before and got you thinking onto how to improve things . used something very simular to what you are showing here for years when i was tying stuff down into the pick up truck or flat bed , i lover how you got this going and will be a very big help to that and will be employing it into the rope i always carry on me for those jobs . :)
I’m changing how I tie my knots. I always use the slip knot into the flip knot but it always tightened up when I’d draw down. Not anymore. Thank you. Always evolving.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Innovative, clear instruction, friendly and completely non patronising. Top quality.
Awesome video I love learning new knots so definitely got to be watching a lot of your videos
This knot is so dope it makes me chuckle
Loved your knots and your presentation! Many thanks
This is brilliant.
Pure Craftsmanhip
I love how happy dave looks in this video after making a major but also only slight improvement on a time tested staple of his teaching. Hard earned knowledge!! To me this has always been the benefit of a taut tarp hitch over a truckers hitch, but I always feel like the truckers gives a smidge more tension. Thanks for sharing this Dave, definitely speedy!
This video is treasure! Thank you! Keep up the good work!
Ok, that's legit awesome! Crazy how simple it is! Thank you sir!
Thanks Dave for the great idea!
What a rabbit hole of knowledge I have fallen into.
Thank you for sharing sir.
I love learning from this guy!
Pure genius on that one Dave I'm going to get that down pat thanks again for the great videos
I love how excited you got when you got to the new technique!
Great job explaining this knot
I am stealing all kinds of stuff from this video. I always use the truckie's hitch with the slipknot to set my ridgeline, but I keep a super long rapid deploy ridgeline cause...well, you never know how far between anchors. But that half sheep shank simplifies having to pull all that excess line through the loop. When you take that sheep shank out, the whole thing just drops. Bundle your tail and bring it back over your line, roll up your cordage. Love it.
Pulling the half-hitch loop to tighten the ridge line is brilliant too and avoids having to run the tail through the tackle twice to create an auto-lock when you pull it tight. The only thing I might change is using a lark's head instead of the underhand turn to create that partial sheep shank. I've been a fan of Dave ever since he was on that survival show with Cody. Thanks again Dave!
I'm surprised he doesn't have more subscribers than that. He's like the king of the woods. Everyone knows him as such...
That is the best Ridgeline video I have ever seen in my lifetime
Awesome Dave, thanks for sharing your knowledge
as a trucker we have been doing that for years to tie down sheets very old school knot i learnt back in the early 80's
Best ridgeline method ever, well done Mr Canterbury, that is just pure awesome.
An excellent video on that, I will surely use that. It definitely simplifies it. I already have 3 prusiks on my ridgeline.
