I would've never thought about setting up a plow point that way. You dont have a tree in front and you have the added benefit of pulling the middle of the tarp back for more space. All that tied on one same jungle knot Ridgeline. Clever

Quick top. Don't pull all the line through the hole. Just push the knot through and leave the rest out. This then becomes a quick release. When it's time to break camp, just pull and it's undone and you're away. If you want be tidy, gather the lose line and slide in the next knot along.

Thanks for the video Chad. You don't need to thread the rest of the line through with the jungle knot system. The beauty of this idea is that friction holds out in place. When I first did used this myself, it felt fragile, like it was going to slip out, but as you said tension holds it in place. Try it. 👍🏼

I think a few toggles and a wooden cuttlefish would be handy with these. Toggles tied to tarp tapes and the 'Cuttlefish' can be used to split your lines to facilitate putting a knot through without risking your fingers, insert, twist slightly to open the gao and slip your knot through then back off the twist to secure and remove Cuttlefish. Could double as a camp spoon/stirrer as well.

I made one thank you! To me its a game changer and Im fairly good with knots. I practiced using it in my back yard. I ended up cutting mine in half as I can always reconnect them in a loop to loop fashion. Easier to handle and gives me more options. I also took some 15 ft strands and made 4 short ones about 7 ft ea. This is better, faster and less stress on your paracord too me. I put my tarp over top attach a bug net underneath - works like a charm and fast! Thanks again!

Another plus is its much stronger and can be used doubled up for a hammock. You could also undo the overhand knots if need be and have all that extra paracord. Forces me to cary more coordage which is always a plus in my book!

I carry toggled jungle knots all the time. When I’m out in the field there are about a dozen or so in my rope bag and they range from 6-8 feet (after they are made) made out of #36 Bankline. Take 4to5 meters of bankline and burn one end, then take the other end and slide a pre-made toggle (I buy a length of 1/2 inch dowel rod then cut them to 3or4 inches drill out a centre hole then round the edges with my knife) after it’s on then burn that end (make both ends mushroom, makes it harder for the toggle to accidentally fall off. Lol) Now take the 2 mushroom ends and pinch them together and hold them, now with the other hand grab the toggle and slide it to the end then voila you found the middle lol. Now pinch the two sides of the rope together making sure the rope is nice and neat, any twist or turns at this point will bite you in the butt later. Now with both side’s gently pinch in between you’re fingers take your dominant hand and pull evenly pull both strings thru till you come back to the two mushroomed ends to ahead and tie them together. Now take your hand and spread your thumb and pinky as far apart as you can, now put your thumb on the knot and your pinky on the chords (oops little slip, I’m not talking about the guitar lol) let’s go with cords then tie your second knot and get going till you hit the toggle. There you go you just made your first toggled jungle knot. These can be used for anything. Setting up your tarp, grab the toggle and put it through the eyelet or strap of your tarp then walk out take your stake and place it beside a knot that fits the angle you want and pound it in. You put the tension and angle at the same time. Let’s say at the beginning the toggle won’t fit through well just take the end knot put it trough then take a stick or tent peg (I carry about 20 titanium tent pegs in my rope bag) and use it as a toggle. Now you have the toggled end loose and you walk towards the tree you want to attach it too and you run out of cord, no problem reach into your bag and grab another one. Attach the end of that one to the toggle in your hand and continue walking. Now you reach the tree and you give it a big bear hug and grab the rope with your other hand and pull it around and attach the two together. Quick and easy. I even use one at church the other day, we wanted to hold the door open to the media room and it kept kicking everything out of the way. I grabbed my rucksack and grabbed a juggle knot then put the end loop around the door handle then took the other end and wrapped it around a table leg behind the door and pulled it tight then put the toggle through the tightest loop I could. Took 30 seconds. I also use it when I walk into camp. Grab a tree wrap it around holding the toggle end put it through a loop that snugs it up and let the toggle hang I then lower my backpack down and attach the toggle to a loop on my backpack and let it hang, never once touching the ground. 24:07 They are so practical and super easy to use, that’s why I always have a couple in my daily haversack.

I call mine my "104 rope" cause there are 104 knots. It took about 3.5 hours. I just put a DeNiro movie in and tied while watching. Ended up with about 42'... handy and convenient, but lost 60' of cord. I have short 2" loops tied to my tarp with a large double knot. The knot acts like a botton, and the rope has the loops. A simple botton loop concept. There is no need for the toggle. And the knots are short enough they don't catch on anyting. I also use one on the trailer to hold down loads.

Jungle knots are great but are much more restrictive on a ridge line vs a single corded ridge line . Robert’s Bulgaria has the best No knot Ridgeline in my honest opinion. Less cordage and no restrictions in 6” increments. Jungle knots are better as guide lines .
@KiwiBushcraftAndSurvival Жыл бұрын
Just remember also that having all that extra cordage with you is NOT a con. It is a PRO. When you need extra cordage for whatever reason. You will be glad that you carried that large hank of cordage.

@user-hz8ji2gz1o Жыл бұрын
Very good. But I don’t think you really need to pull the whole line through on each end. You need to engage one knot. That way you have a quick release when you take the ridgeline down.
@DonaldBurdek2 жыл бұрын
Great video, may end up incorporating this into my hammock setup.. couldn't you incorporate the same principle on the Ridgeline to your lines coming off the poncho and tie a knot at the end of those lines instead of having to use a toggle?
@ruckrabbitoutdoors99462 жыл бұрын
Possible if using paracord. With bankline the knot would not be big enough. A toggle or tent peg be much more secure

Why mess with knots here? Seems there's no need to make this more complicated that it is. The brilliance is in its simplicity.
