Ray, Lisa DeHart here, I love this setup. So great that you can work the whole rig so close to shore and I can’t thank you enough for the French Prussic, I also found it called the Dutch clinch knot…anyway I’m never using the other one again. This one so much easier and faster to execute and so much better at holding. And yes, I am a subscriber! Fair winds and full bellies.
You are so welcome! Thank you or commenting Lisa, it is appreciated. Yep the French Prussik is really good. Back in my mountaineering days I was introduced to it for hauling and rescues but with the proviso that if you knock it from the top it releases whether you want it to or not. In those situations which were life dependant, when climbing a rope, I would always use the classic prussik. Anyway now the weather is slowly improving I must get back to creating videos. Keep well and thanks.
Hey Ray. Rory again from eastern Canada. I know this is an old video but I wanted to compliment you on it. Excellent demonstrations and explanations. I will incorporate some of them in my own Paddle Canada moving water courses. Great job!
Thanks Ray and family 😀, yet another great instructional video, thanks for adding in the safety info, a lot of people don't understand what can happen when a rope goes past its strain point or as you stated the stress /strain on the anchor point becomes too much. Once again many thanks, Nige.
Glad you appreciated it. Yep a lot have no idea on consequence on this stuff. A friend of mine was hauling a vehicle out of mud with his land rover winch. He could hear the strain so asked his wife to get out of the vehicle. Yep the wire snapped and the tackle went through his windscreen and the top of the seat wife had been in! Fortunately he had gone with his gut instinct in asking her to get out. Again thank you for your comments. Ray
That is a HMS carabiner. that is a type not a brand. that particular one will be dmmwales.com/climbing-products/locking-carabiners/shadow-hms They now do them coloured. Many manufacturers will do HMS carabiners. Hope that helps. Ray
Hi Lisa, the pig rig shown is a 4:1 so is stronger than the Z-drag which is a 3:1. A vector pull can be used with either to apply yet more force. But the vector pull depends on the fact that the rope it acting on is already taut from Z-drag or pig rig

Awesome, thank you Rory. Appreciated. I need to do one more in that series on doing a roll over. When the weather is warmer. Keep well
Her amazement was pretty damn cute. Thanks for the video
Thanks for commenting. Keep well.
This is so useful and informative, thanks a lot. I didn't expect a breaking rope to be such a hazard, I'll definitely be extra careful.
Thank you for your kind comments. Yep you only have to see one rope go and the destructive power stays with you.
Just watched this again. Maya is the star
She does rather steal the scene.

Another great video. Looks like I'll be practicing some knots before spring, and buying a decent recovery kit. This channel is getting expensive!
I accept no cost liability. LOL Glad to give you something to practise though.
Thanks for doing this.
You are most welcome
Another interesting video Ray, Many thanks
Glad you found it useful
Nice work Ray.
Thanks Paul 👍
what is the type and size of the carabiner at 1:25?
That is a HMS carabiner. that is a type not a brand. that particular one will be dmmwales.com/climbing-products/locking-carabiners/shadow-hms They now do them coloured. Many manufacturers will do HMS carabiners. Hope that helps. Ray
ace ray!
Thank you Jack. Appreciated.
Sorry about the little stream. I was a bit noisy.
Yep but you did a good job with the framing. The sound issues are a big learning thing for both of us.
Excellent content, didn't notice the back ground noise.
@@downeastprimitiveskills7688 I am working on a better sound mic system. this is all a big learning curve for Lina and me.
@@RayGoodwinCanoe Excellent content, any increase in tech will only be an improvement, on an already great source of info. Thanks
I liked it. Reminded me of canoeing. All the best. Mikey
So is a vector pull stronger than a z drag?
Hi Lisa, the pig rig shown is a 4:1 so is stronger than the Z-drag which is a 3:1. A vector pull can be used with either to apply yet more force. But the vector pull depends on the fact that the rope it acting on is already taut from Z-drag or pig rig
💯 💪
Thanks
Uncommon knowledge..
