Very helpful. I took my new Ursack out on a week long backpacking trip recently and I had watched Ursaks video before I went. However, by the time I got there I couldn't remember how to do it so I resorted to a rabbit hole knot. After watching your videos and practicing, I'm now ready to do it the correct way. Thanks for taking the trouble of making these instructional videos.
Thanks! I made it kind of quickly during my break from the AT last year, so I will try to make another (better) one when my wife takes a break from her thru-hike later this summer.
For a real-world example of how to use a stick to take up the slack in your Ursack cord, see my video "AT2022.Day.086" and skip to the 6:35 mark. You'll see me demonstrate how the stick works as I take down my Ursack while breaking camp.

@@HikeOverTheHill Ah great! I have this video tagged to practice
I will have to watch your other video on the purpose of this magic bag!
It's to protect your food from bears and other critters. And to protect them from associating humans with food.
