Rope Throwing - How To Coil A Rope for Throwing. Half Turn and Bight Method To Avoid Twisting.

How to prepare a rope to throw to climber or over a branch. Don't coil your rope as it is - it will just twist on you. Do a half turn away from you for each loop. That way the coils will lie straight.

Does this method also work for longer ropes? e.g. 50 - 60 metres. Cheers Murray

Hi. Thanks for the question. Yes it will, but you are limited by how much you can physically coil and hold in your hand at once. 🙂
