Great video. So many of these knot-tying videos you can barely see what they are doing. You really positioned the camera just right and had the right colored back drop and everything. Kudos.

how do you not have a million subs? your videos are so informative and really well edited! great job! i think its just a little quiet, i have to turn you up a bit, but thats not a real issue! keep up the great work!

I am not even close to being as good/experienced as you but I have a question. Is that an approved/safe way to secure your “safe second”? I think you would want it deployable without having to unclip anything or worst case your buddy is OOG and he reaches for it but can’t get to it.

Hey great tip! Although when you finish the knot use a square knot instead of a double overhand because that will dress much nicer and be harder to come undone as square knots are more self tightening and have more friction than double overhand.

Don't ever clip your alternate air off with a bolt snap. Your alternate air should be easily deployable and accessible in case of an emergency.

You can use this tie off technique on your SPG, your primary second stage, a dive light, or a dive knife, but never ever on your Octo/alternate air.

Paracord bro
I recommend buying it by the 100yd rolls
Use them shits 4 everything

[harrypink]

What size line do you use ? Great video by the way!

[dharmapunk]

Are you using a reef knot or a granny knot?

[andrewcheong]

why don't you use cable ties instead? takes less than 5s to put it on. And cheaper too

[geofftrodd]

Why would you clip an octopus when the thing is supposed to be accessible in an emergency???

[jangrewe]

PLEASE do not teach anybody how to tie a bolt snap to their octo! SPG? Sure! Anything other than an octo? Of course. Your octo? DO. NOT. DO. THIS.
Somebody will follow your advice without thinking, and then there's another diving casualty.
