All the Ridgeline shown are the best, it's just preferences and it starts from cordage management & storage. Whether it's in the pocket or backpack, as long as it is easily get to in case of emergency. We manage our cordages similar to yours but much tighter, ending up with something very compact. We use it as a self defense item. Thank you Mr.JJ & instructors. So when will be the next survival/shtf vid? Cheers from Australia.
I’m hoping for an adventure video next time.. I had to teach in another state and did this one while I was there.. You’re right- they are all useful in different scenarios and people just need to pick the ones that work for them.. I’m definitely interested in the self defense method of carry though! Sounds like something I need to know!!
Really cool to watch all those experts at work. At the end of the day it's about getting inspired to go out and do the things yourself so that you know what works best for you. Keep'em coming. 👊🏻🔥👊🏻
I figured while I was teaching I should grab some of the other Instructors to demonstrate their methods with me.. Interesting how many different ways to skin a cat 😂 👊🏻🔥👊🏻
Your 2nd to last knot...the tension less made me roll! I actually passed my knot badge with that before I had knots figured out knots. I was lucky, and finished with the shoelace knot! But it worked! Love this subject, it was flooded for a bit there! Until me meet again, signed, The 4th "J" of the 4 J's.... Jason! As always, Fuel The Fires Brother!
I like Blackie's way and the one with a toggle, I also use a trucker's hitch, why, because I'm a retired trucker. Sorry I can't be up there to meet and greet you all..maybe next year..stay safe.
Thank you, Gentlemen !!! Lots of options. Covered it extremely well !!! I need to practice some of them !!! Some are good to teach my kids, and the Boy Scouts !!! Keep up the great work !!!
I do like the last guy by using the toggle quick release. To secure to other tree, I use the simple truckers hitch, finish off with a half hitch and toggle. However, I do like the 3rd guys spin around the finger and creating that bite. I may start using that.
They all work and I personally really enjoyed watching John work his knowledge there- great set up if you only have paracord.. It’s good to know multiple methods should the need arise.. Thanks for watching AND commenting 👊🏻
@@FueltheFires lol, I'm just a creature of habit. When I find something that works best for me, I tend to keep it the same. Then, it becomes muscle memory and I don't have to think about it, lol. I do enjoy videos like this because there is always something new to learn and maybe incorporate into my routine. Thanks for the comment.
These are all good examples and work. The timber hitch Blackie did was a good and also using the small carabiner at the truckers hitch seems like a good idea for cord life. I usually do the standard ridgeline with a toggle at one end and truckers hitch on the other, but Im going to try that alpine butterfly in leu of the truckers hitch and see how it goes. Good to see all the experts at one time. Thanks- Carry On-
Thank you! Yes, they are all good techniques and that was what we wanted to show- there’s 50 ways to skin a cat and pick the one that works for you… Try some of it out and let us know- thanks for watching AND commenting 👊🏻
I like the basic quick deploy ridgeline. I toe the bowline knot on one end, and for a quick release I just make that pocket and use a toggle. For the other end I like the locking trucker's hitch. I will also have two or three prusic loops on my quick deploy ridgeline. For a quick shelter I will use bungee cords over a quick deploy ridgeline.
For extra cord in my pack I've started using a thin water bottle cut off where it starts to neck down. Just shove the Hanks in and the slight edge keeps them in. It can be crushed to conserve pack space and still works fine
Okay, I'm not the adult boyscout bush guy, so I don't know all these hippe names y'all give knots. I am an old cow hand, and y'all might want to look into picket lines. I don't know how to put it into words, but I can set up a picket line without having to tie a loop in the rope, tighten it up, and sturdy enough that a horse can't pull it down.
My belt is made of woven 550 cord with a few modifications, including methods of equiping my EDC. It is my quick deploy Ridgeline. Of course, I'd lose my pants, but at least I'd have shelter, fire, fish, traps, cutting tools, and filtered water.
@@FueltheFires Thank you! Honestly it's kinda cool to have you, of all people, respond; because it was actually YOUR watch that gave me the idea. Keep doing what you do, and thank you.

Nice video. Thank you.
Thanks and you’re welcome!
I’m going with Blackie…. I just don’t do knots and for my arthritic hands this works for me.
Rock on 👊🏻

Awesome! Your choices are solid and we appreciate the feedback for sure- thanks for watching AND commenting 👊🏻
Bowline on one end and a truckers hitch in the other.
Classic in my opinion 👍🏻
All the nuts are great Guaidó highly appreciate thank you very much
Yes they are 👍🏻
For extra cord in my pack I've started using a thin water bottle cut off where it starts to neck down. Just shove the Hanks in and the slight edge keeps them in. It can be crushed to conserve pack space and still works fine
Cool 😎
I used to do old school knots but I cheat and use jam cams when I can 😂
Hey, when it works- it works 👍🏻
I say any ridge line that gets your shelter up in just a few minutes and keeps you from cutting cortage is just fine.
Right on 💪🏻
Get em’ Pink!! 😊
Sir John to the rescue!

I would be interested in that for sure!

@@sonicplanet9193You got it! I appreciate you “watching” and appreciate the support 👊🏻🔥👊🏻
Simple = Fast = EASY/QUICK! What more is needed???? YOUR personal choice.
Who was that vast man?

the ''science'' behind the ridgeline... I guess I'll keep it simple [3rd option] life is too complicated as it is... [without even the SHTF factor...]
We could all learn a lesson in simplicity brother 👊🏻
Ridgelines? They are still just a string between 2 trees, right? Not code for constructing a permanent base on the moon?
You would be absolutely correct on that 😂
