Love your slow paced, methodical demonstration and great camera work. Made this tutorial very easy to follow unlike many others I've watched. Successfully coiled my first rope! Thank you

I want to sincerely thank the author of the video for the perfect technique for teaching the craft of tying a climbing (arborist) rope into a very convenient rope bay!
Bravo! Bravo!! Bravo!!! 👍

Wow, so simple yet so genius. Thank you for this video, you just cut countless hours of fighting rope out of my future.

That was an excellent demo video. To the point, well spoken and clear! Thank you. I have been fighting with my 100’ boat anchor line for a year and now have a fix for it!!!

When I saw the old guy my age, I stopped to watch !! Thank you very much. Love the truck.

As an old tower dog, love to find tips and tricks; see how other professions do their job easier.

Somewhat along this line here, I think throughout life I've spent half of my shop time coiling and uncoiling the same 50 feet of air hose, or so it felt like. Then one day something happened I should have done years before but always put it off. Got a hose reel. Life is better now. One day I'll master the cords and ropes thanks to Guys that put it out here. Bad habits are a real time taker.

You are very easy to listen to. Nice instruction... Thank You!

I liked because it always shows the right direction of the end.... cheers!

Terrific video. (What annoys me to no end is three years ago I was looking for this exact information on YouTube, and it took them all this time to finally add it to the list they send me. All the videos I found was someone doing it correctly but too fast to make sure what the method was.) I love your demonstration. I used to 'coil' it up with full size coils and then toss the end to demonstrate hockles (kinks) and a clean pay out.
I've sailed with guys far more experienced than I am who make big pretty loops and end up with hockles everywhere. Even with a demonstration it's like they just don't want to change. I shrugged. Your boat, your method. On one of the hockle boats they really didn't get in the way too much... but they could have. You know as an arborist as I know as a sailor ropes are our business and our safety.

I learned from my Milwaukee County arborist uncle, who coils his ropes exactly the same way. Makes sense!

[kimbarator]

Nicely done, that's some good teaching there !!!

[waterboy]

I'm going to use this on mooring lines, thanks!
Best wishes from Scotland

Sir you read the play! I thought I was going to catch you off guard with my pre climb rodeo rope flip tradition but nevermind!

Nice work! I'll be trying this.
