I've always been happy with the old trusty diamond hitch. I'll have to give the double-diamond a try. Might have to buy some carabiners too!

I've was an exclusive single diamond guy for a long time. It did what I needed and I was fine with that. Then covid came and I figured it was a good time to learn a new tool. Darned if I don't like it better! Easy to tie without having to reach up on tops of the packs :-)

Why don’t you speak during the video to explain what you’re doing? I have to try to watch you and read at the same time. Ug
