I love how the important part is off screen. 0/10

[@boatus]

Hey, Keith. Sorry you didn't find the video useful, but can you give me more info about what you believe is not shown? I watched this again, and everything is centered and shown in frame. Are you sure your response is on the correct video?

[@tubbyisnofatty]

Can’t see the left hand bringing the rope over, so I don’t know how/what direction you’re twisting it to lay the rope in. I agree with that guy- fine if you already know how to do it, but this isnuseless for beginners.

[@boatus]

Thanks for the explanation, Tubby. You can see the full original video here, which should show you what was missing: th-cam.com/video/BRIa55_62og/w-d-xo.htmlsi=PfbzN0ZSqL0KOcip

Thanks for watching. Anothuor! Glad you found it useful.

It’s a nice method, but can’t tell how you’re doing it. What the heck does “roll your hand” and “lay the twist” mean? And I agree with the guy who said you can’t see what your left hand is doing.

[@boatus]

Thanks for the feedback, Eric. And sorry for any confusion. It might be helpful to view the original horizontal format video then: th-cam.com/video/BRIa55_62og/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nIQXZhk4ZMD3-hgi

Nice job cameraman

[@boatus]

Not the nicest way to deliver your comment, seek3n, but we appreciate the honest feedback. This was cropped from a horizontal video, which you can view here if you need to see more: th-cam.com/video/BRIa55_62og/w-d-xo.htmlsi=iXplvcJc-0oX7-xo We'll try to do better in the future.
