    Nice demo. I use VT mostly on mechanical advantage systems for rafting when recovering wraps or doing pendulum portages with heavy loads. Also in some canyoning. Be great if you voiced over the advantages and disadvantages of each and their best use. Cheers.

    Knut H is my daily now, easy to tie/ dress preforms very well thus far. Coming from the Distel or VT. Some times it is good just to mix it up I find as hitch cord can develop some funny memory. More so after a wet day or real fast burn. Rubbing / rolling any glaze on rough bark can help add some life and better feel.
    I still need to take some time to give the following a fair shake. I tend to forget exactly how to tie them.
    4. Michoacan
    6. Cornell Hitch
    7. Catalyst Hitch
    8. Enzyme Hitch
    Thanks for sharing, saved this to my phone for future rec climbs! This is a very clear demonstration, well done!!!

      Michoacan is basically a Blake's except you only pass the end back through one of the wraps and clip the eye back into the biner

      VT Was too fast even the slow version and the demonstrator turn the rope around so it wasn’t clear when making the first grade if the tub goes over the bottom or the bottom goes over the top

      @quick04sti 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's been my personal experience that while you may have a preference of which hitch you prefer. The eye to eye is what really dictates the hitch needed due to melting point length, Dia. And the stiffness of the eye to eye.

  • @LatinLegion
    @LatinLegion 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Great video! For sure I will try some of them. I started with the Blake's hitch, then I switched to distel but the rope I use is old and that hitch bites the rope to much giving a hard time to go up. So I found the buchman's hitch on TH-cam. I tried it, I loved it and since then is my hitch to go up. Although to work around the tree I still use the distel.

  • @TreeCamper
    @TreeCamper 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I use knut, michoacan, distel mostly. I started with the VT but tend not to use it much anymore because I find it has a lot of sit back.

  • @johnkomosa4089
    @johnkomosa4089 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    30 seconds into this video, I stopped and made my 1st climbing knot hitch, with 2 shoe strings one tied to the curtain rod above, ah ha. It slid up good and had a real good bite with a tug pull down. I could see I was a little off but it looked pretty good and held very well. I can see where the slight give as the sliding hitch tightens up is like a shock absorber and will lesson injury as the rope goes taught, it gives a little, thats good, Give but no slip.
    Great video Thanks, I am off and running,, or maybe crawling for now, no hurry.

    Just refreshed my setup, for the new season. I was on VT. But going to go with distel and see how the grab and sit back is. seemed a bit better for my thick prusik cordage. Also grabbed a triple attachment swivel micro pulley the Hydra.

  • @you2tooyou2too
    @you2tooyou2too 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The value of this simple presentation to me, is that there are dozens of such one-way hitches, that vary in performance (sometimes significantly) depending on the relative variables of diameter, stiffness, slickness, and stretch between the hitch and the line, and the loads, control needed, and situational parameters. Most folk will be able to experiment with these options, and select a couple of them to master for most of your specific needs. Thank you.

    I like the Cornell hitch as it seems to grab well but release freely when pressure is off just like the VT & can tie with less length. Also, I like the almost symmetrical form as in the distel hitch.

    • @KosMachines
      @KosMachines 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Check it on your own rope and see which hitch works best. I have one rope that the Cornell takes a full 6 inches to grab, yet the other grabs instantly.

    Val de tin. Not exactly tied how I was shown but definitely works the best for me in rope access. Also called a Frenchman's hitch around here. I like it because it's alot easier to unload then all the hitches shown here. Does have a tendency to elongated double it's leght so not very compact.

    • @keithklassen5320
      @keithklassen5320 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thing is, there are too many variables between different ropes, different eye-to-eyes, and different climbing styles. Some people get used to one and can't stand any of the others, while some people like one for one purpose, another for another.
      The VT could probably be said to be the least grabby of them, so it's more likely to slip if it's not tied with enough windings, not dressed perfectly, or used with a glazed and slippery eye-to-eye. On the other hand, if it is tied and dressed well on the right loop, it's *very* responsive. A lot of the more grabby tresses aren't as responsive.
      I climbed for 2yrs and I used a VT almost exclusively. I tried a few of the other tresses out, couldn't make them stop grabbing and over-tightening. Some people can't stand the VT for their own use, they often say it's too loose, too slippery, too touchy.
      As my loop became worn and glazed, I had to add one or two windings to my VT to keep it from slipping.

    • @davidwarren719
      @davidwarren719 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Essentially-if you’re climbing-they’re All accomplishing the same tasks You may want to use one or the other depending on what sort of line you’re on. For instance, in the vertical world I generally use the VT. I have a buddy that I go out with occasionally, and his line is significantly thinner and slipperier than my usual line is. Since I use the same eye-to-eyes on both lines, I often use a grabbier Tresse when I’m on the thinner line. On another angle of the question, some of the Tresses are more optimal for different uses. For instance in the scenario of a haul system, or aid climbing-I may use the VT for “down” operations due to its responsiveness, and I may use a Distel or a Schwabish (which is just an asymmetric prusik by the way) during “up” operations. The bottom line is that when you decide which line you’re going to be climbing on, What task you need accomplished, and what material you’re going to be using to make the friction hitch, only THEN do you decide which hitch will be most appropriate That’s why some people learn several species of Tresse-more tools in the box for more tasks and obstacles. In my personal practice though, I make progress captures using the Distel, or some modified asymmetric prusik, and I do everything else with a VT. That’s generally with 8mm technora sheathed nylon on either an 11.2 mm line or a 9.5 mm.

  • @duggydugg3937
    @duggydugg3937 4 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @benjaminchen1964
    @benjaminchen1964 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    F**k, mind BLOWN!!! Just when I knew the basic 4 (Swabish, Distel, VT & Michotain tresse) I see some more that I want to try. I know a lot of climbers that stick with what they know but definitely interesting to see & learn new knots.

    I've watched this many times now.
    The problem I'm having is keeping distance between my rope wrench and my climbing hitch. I've resorted to attaching my double teather to the top hole of my triple attachment pulley and I use the bottom one for my harness. I go back and forth between using the middle hole and the loop on the teather for my chest harness. I'm new to this. I use a Notch" Jet Step " foot ascender and a "HAAS" knee ascender . Really feel a little out of sort without my spikes.
    Any suggestions for a " GRASSHOPPER "
    I do this recreational mostly. Occasionally setting Zip Lines and/or cutting low limbs off trees to clean them up.

  • @billjenko6407
    @billjenko6407 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am using a Schwabisch or Distal (they work about the same) on the harness, a Bachmann (not shown here) for the leg loops, and a Pusik on my safety line to the harness for climbing the mast alone on my sailboat using the jib and main halyards as static lines. I could use mechanical ascenders but they all seem to do more damage to the halyards than the knots do. I descend using these knots as well.

    Are any of these stronger or safer than the others?

    • @TreeCamper
      @TreeCamper 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There's no easy answer for that. They are all strong if you are using proper equipment. It's more about which ones are grabbing correctly for the type of climbing line and hitch cord. The michoacan, knut, catalyst and enzyme seem to be the grabbiest. More isn't always better. You want a balance. I'm finding that the catalyst and enzyme work better clipped in 180 degrees from what is show.

    • @benjaminchen1964
      @benjaminchen1964 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, I like the Swabish but it cinches so tight it's hard to tend slack even with micro pulley so I went to the Valdotain Tresse b/c it releases better. I don't know if I like all the looping around itself unless it helps extend the life of your eye splice. I end up having flat spots in mine & try to wash them to get them round again.

  • @benjaminchen1964
    @benjaminchen1964 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cool!!! I want to try the Knut hitch & Cornell when I get a chance. I like the Distel but went back to the Swabish but the former doesn't grab enough & the other grabs too much, esp. W/5 coils instead of 4. A lot of climbers swear by the Valdotain Tresse as it seems to grab & release smoothly. I think I will like some of these options!

    Currently use a distel hitch on a hitch climber. But I find if it rains, or after a longish decent, it really binds up and its difficult to pull slack through or release.

      Times of Wrapping is depending the climber's weight and the friction of the rope & eye-to-eye. More weight more wrap.

    • @ArborJason
      @ArborJason  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      thank you for your comment. Those hitch is same purpose that increase friction on the rope of system. My choice of eye to eye hitch is depending easy release and easy tension. Base on these two points to choose one hitch on your rope and eye to eye tail. Different type of rope ,Different type of eye to eye tail, Different length of eye to eye , Different combination bring different results. I tried every hitch on my system and chose one of them.

    I started using a Michoacán instead of a distal because it breaks much easier after being out under load. My only concern is that after breaking, it sometimes wants to slide down the rope before catching when trying to reload.
    I wish there were a description of each of these knots as to their different characteristics.

      Add a wrap/ make sure you got short legs. Long legs add unwanted slack to the knot=creeper hitch.

    Is there any functional difference between these and how they hold or slide?

      Some are grippier, some are smoother, some have a tendency to tighten, some have a tendency to loosen. The important part is the hitch cord HAS to be the right size. And the finished knot shouldn't have legs longer than an inch, if it does, add a wrap. Most guys use the VT because you combine wraps and braids to use the entire length whether it's a 26 or a 36 inch cord

    • @XxtwichedxX
      @XxtwichedxX 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The legs re-enter the hitch, creating a lot of slack in the wraps= not as grippy. This typically happens after long ascents.

    Is there a knot that works best for a 240lb guy

      I'm about 230lbs right now. I use a vt almost daily. Sometimes you have to set the hitch yourself a few times while weighting it to get it to set. But it'll hold me most days.

      你好,我比較常用Knut 及Michoacan,會較為短少,方便使用。繩結選擇在乎攀樹繩及雙眼繩的配搭,可以用同一條攀樹繩及雙眼繩嘗試每一個繩結,測試鬆緊程度及流暢度。

      Cesar Lara thank you for your comment. Those hitch is same purpose that increase friction on the rope of system. My choice of eye to eye hitch is depending easy release and easy tension. Base on these two points to choose one hitch on your rope and eye to eye tail. Different type of rope ,Different type of eye to eye tail, Different length of eye to eye , Different combination bring different results. I tried every hitch on my system and chose one of them.
