Dang. Grabbed the most plastic, slippery, cheap cord I have, tied this knot around an upright chrome metal tube on a drum stand - it locked right in place. New skill level for me.
This is _not_ the traditional rolling hitch. It may be useful but I would not use it instead of the true rolling hitch which has been tried and tested for centuries.
I've tied it exactly like the instructions and yeah, it slides well, but the problem is it slides in both directions, so it doesn't stay tight... It just slides back the other way, thus loosening. I've tied it like 5 times now, just to make sure I'm not messing it up, but the same thing every time...
@@xtraspecialj make sure you're finishing it towards the tag end of the string you're going around, if that makes sense. I have a feeling you had it going the opposite. 😉
If on paper, make a file folder setup for yourself and put a folder in it labeled "knots". Similar on computer wherever you think you'll remember a folder or file location.

I learned my first knot in Girl Scouts; the square knot. As a crocheter, there are many knots and adjustable loops as well. Knots are fascinating to me. Thanks.
You have some of the best knot videos I have seen, clear and concise in both the images and words. A lot of video visuals are clear enough about how to tie the knot, but have nothing about where it would be useful.
Gonna have to remember this; used to spend lots of time sleeping outdoors in the field (Army field artillery), but didn't know many knots. Planning on going camping next summer maybe...
I love the rolling hitch for sweat pants as I don't want the tie with bows which will undoubtedly become undone, yet hate needing to pee & not being able to untie traditional knots. Great hitch! Looks complicated to the novice, but versatile & useful for the initiated.
Just wondering why your bows are coming undone? Make sure you're creating a square knot (beware the granny knot!) and dressing correctly, I've never had any issues with bows coming undone - shoes, sweatpants, or otherwise.
At one point in my life, I worked as a maid on a boat. I Learn, new knots and how to use them correctly to secure a load. This is one that I was not taught, nor have I crossed this one before in my life. I appreciate the knowledge and I know I will be using it soon.
I just watched this video like 3 months ago and always did this for my sweatpants. Today I forgot how to do it and found the video in my history again and now I am able to do it again thx man, all the love in the world to you.
This works; can confirm! And not only that, but it's also *way* easier to remember and do than any other hitch or knot I've learned besides the granny knot and square knot (and those are so simple that kids use them all the time on accident! 🤣🤣). The side loop on my backpack broke a bit ago, so I used this hitch to tie it and the adjustable hanging-strap-thingy together so I had my loop back. It's been so nice to have a side-loop again!
Love it! I’ve been looking for a fancy way to tie my sweat pants. Now I’m using this knot and for the “free” lace I’m using a diamond knot to act as a stopper of sorts 🎉
Thank you, thank you. This will change my world. Good bye prussic knot, hello rolling hitch. It works great as a slippery rolling hitch also, for a quick untie.
The choice of words, the pacing of speech or possibly the clear zoomed in shot of the knot. Explaining how to do things is pretty difficult. I found it interesting how I do it slightly differently every time. It really is satisfying when they get it though.
Love practicing these knot techniques it really helps with my severe Rheumatoid arthritis and keeps me occupied since I'm disabled for I'm at home 🏡 🙃 many thanks for ✌️✨️
@@timapple6586 it's just a taut line with the first two wraps crossed over each other. in my few tests taut line is able to hold more tension. rolling hitch holds somewhere in between taut line and two half hitches
As a woman, UA-cam has made me more into a handy person that my Dad in Heaven would be proud of. It’s become such a great source of knowledge like this VIDEO to learn some cool stuff you can use in real life. UA-cam University to the rescue! ❤
I used a Spanish Windless on a 1" yellow rope and we pulled a 23 inch Live Oak tree off a house after hurricane Hugo in SC. By the time we pulled it off, the rope was about to burn thru. My father taught me this. Smart old school man.
I said to myself, "OK, I've seen enough - it's time to subscribe!" I've been enthralled by at least seven videos over the last few days. Then I went to subscribe and found I was already subscribed.... I did brief stints in the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts, did two years in the Navy, trained as an Army Medic, and worked with a man who used rope solutions all the time and emphasized the trucker's hitch ( I only learned the name in a recent video, but he did tell me he used that hitch for securing loads on trucks. Duh!) So, I'm older now and not as likely to be doing much rope work, but I do so appreciate your videos and how you try to simplify and make clear how to make these knots and hitches. Thank you!
Thanks!!!! It took me a few tries with my sweat pants. It was initially refusing to actually stick. I just found it needing some more thorough dressing. It works fantastically well once it’s nice and tidy
Love the knots. Try most of them off the field...forget most of them on the field. I try to just stick simple and use the other ones to keep my mind moving and to pass time.
I'm an Eagle scout, and mastered all the knots I needed to know way back then quickly with some practice. This one is new to me! But it does seem awfully useful, combining features of several different knots of which I am already familiar. Thanks for sharing. Ps. I've never heard it said that a hitch was not also a knot.
Same knot we use in combination with a clove hitch for hauling aloft a hose and branch. It allows the hose length to be adjusted when securing the line in the building while also preventing the hose from slipping through from the weight of water once charged.
Constrictor knot but adjustable, I usually bring the leading end to the middle to constrict. As you have it sometimes separates if you use it adjacent to a line, but brilliant perpendicular to it. Excellent knot to have in your skill set thx 👍🏻
For ridgelines I prefer prusik knots as they have a loop already as part of the knot to hang stuff on, but I'm definitely going to practice this one for makeshift drawstrings and backpack straps!
This one is really handy for me at work as an ironworker. I learned it a few weeks back and it's served me well. When were flying cages especially like with a zoom boom and moving it at low altitude we need to control it's orientation with a tag line, I kept having my line slip which was super sketchy at times, but this one is a Beauty
as an eagle scout. its called the constrictor knot. its basically the same thing as the clove hitch but slightly different to give it more of a bite to secure it better.

Actually, you can recently add a short to a playlist!
@@ajbp95 you always could, people just aren't creative enough.
@@hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-Mikel.Montalat Sure, but know there is a button (if you long press in the app), which wasn't there before.
You should teach Boy Scouts!
"Rolling Hitch".
The neat part is, when I would actually need to tie this knot, I won't remember how to.
Just practice practice practice until you can do it half asleep.
Seen so many useful knots and hitches on UA-cam now, it's like overload. You have to practice them over and over....
😂how right you are
Try it on your sweat pants. Every five minute when they start to sag re-tie it.
This just happened to me yesterday and somehow my phone read my mind and it showed up on my feed again!!!
Ah yes, the rare youtube short that actually teaches a useful skill with absolutely no bs, love to see it
But you'll forget if you ever actually need it.
Unless someone reminds you. You're welcome.
@@sandjaypirthipal5482 True, thanks lmao
It's BS that he says it's not a knot then immediately says it's a great knot. Can't be both

For real? I must try this!
It won’t slip if you secure the end but if you don’t it will slip!
@@Webedunn How to secure the end?
This is _not_ the traditional rolling hitch. It may be useful but I would not use it instead of the true rolling hitch which has been tried and tested for centuries.
Did it to my pajama pants. Now i can tighten and loosen how much i want and it locks in place
I _knew_ it was a rolling hitch. Learnt it in my Fire & Rescue Service. Love it.
It’s a clove hitch w one extra wrap. Really cool
Effectively yeah. It's called a "rolling hitch".
Looks a lot like a "two half hitches" knot.
Noo! for a clove hitch the second wrap runs differently.
If you need a better reference, it's the Midshipman's hitch.
Every knot / hitch is just a rope with extra steps...
@@nicekid76 you're right, lets not use names for um, things anymore.
Have been using it for my sweatpants for a long time. Much easier than untying and tying every time I have to go to the bathroom. Thanks lots!

Just take good notes and store them locally where you know you can find them.

I will forget this knot instantly, but while this short is still playing i feel prepared to take on the world
👍👍👍🤗👏❣️
You have some of the best knot videos I have seen, clear and concise in both the images and words. A lot of video visuals are clear enough about how to tie the knot, but have nothing about where it would be useful.
Also some of the best hitch videos!
Great knot for tying to a fixed support pole, pillar or tree tree branch. Also for making your roof tarp adjustable.
Thanks. This will work great for supporting tomatoes. No need to untie/re-tie as they grow.
That's a really good idea 🔥
For tomatos I just wrap the string 4 or 5 times to begin, then wrap again every 3 or 4 days. No knots needed😊
We use this knot everyday for tying scaffolding tube to be pulled up buildings. Never failed!
Petition to change the name of this channel to "knot channel" so we can easily find it when we all need it.
Gonna have to remember this; used to spend lots of time sleeping outdoors in the field (Army field artillery), but didn't know many knots. Planning on going camping next summer maybe...
I use this knot/hitch to hold power lines while I install new services on homes!
Im pissed i lived this long without this. But i have justified the last three hours of youtube bingeing.
I love the rolling hitch for sweat pants as I don't want the tie with bows which will undoubtedly become undone, yet hate needing to pee & not being able to untie traditional knots.
Great hitch! Looks complicated to the novice, but versatile & useful for the initiated.
The only thing worse than that is zipping your pee pee up in the zipper!
How much trouble do you have unknotting it at the end? I found a much cleaner knot last year for drawstrings that just has one loop to undo
Going to have to try this one on my scrubs for work.
Just wondering why your bows are coming undone?
Make sure you're creating a square knot (beware the granny knot!) and dressing correctly, I've never had any issues with bows coming undone - shoes, sweatpants, or otherwise.
@@tophmyster It's a pretty common problem. But maybe we just never learned to do the shoelace knot properly.

Useful for relieving an overridden sheet.

The hitch is amazingly helpful in basically every circumstance. Easy to tie and easy to untie but holds true
This works; can confirm! And not only that, but it's also *way* easier to remember and do than any other hitch or knot I've learned besides the granny knot and square knot (and those are so simple that kids use them all the time on accident! 🤣🤣).

And no one is talking about how smooth that loop is? ... the video loop I mean. Seriously though it is so cleeeaaan.
Brilliant.....I just used this technique on my tarp in the garden. It's a makeshift roof to my decking and woodwork I'm currently attempting. Thankyou
I never knew how much I needed this knot in my life
I will never remember this Rolling Hitch knot but I'm here for it
Dang this rolling hitch is awesome. Glad to learn it.
I spent two years in the Navy, I have a book on how to tie knots and some short pieces of line to practice and my best knot is a granny knot. 👍
Thanks, it's perfect for those difficult tension adjustments.
This stuff is invaluable when you go outdoors
Gotta be my fav knot. I used to do some macrame so I love 🪢. ❤️
Dude you're the Bob Ross of survival 😂
Thank You for sharing survival life hack for camping❤

My new shoelace knot. Cheers mate.
Thank you, thank you. This will change my world. Good bye prussic knot, hello rolling hitch. It works great as a slippery rolling hitch also, for a quick untie.
As soon as to ditch the prussic knot you will have to use it.
Use this for end of rope and prussic for the middle of a rope
I did this once by accident and couldn't replicate it for the longest time. Finally I can do it again
I'll just try to remember that it is called the rolling hitch so I can look it up when I need it.
I actually tried the contrictor knot from one of you videos, and it’s no joke😂 thanks!😂

Such a nice short and incredibly useful. just tired my sweat pants with it, easy and half auto adjusting. Thanks for the great info and short
dude my short's or sweats would always be to tight or loose. now i can adjust it perfectly thank you dude
This music hits different... It's so peaceful and serene... This is a great and informative video but the music is what keep it on loop for me
This and the taut line are my fav
This is going to make setting up my hooch so much easier
