I am thoroughly amazed that you manage to capture my attention so much so that I willingly watched a man tie knots for 1 hour. 😂 But seriously, great work. I appreciate a thorough video with a thorough explanation rather than a brief overview where they already expect you to know how to do certain aspects. I am the type of person that I want to see A to Z with an explanation of why each step is there. Thank you very much for taking the time to share your knowledge with other people. Means alot.

I'm a senior citizen who wants to spend lots of time outdoors during my remaining years, and this RDRL is the cat's meow for someone with hand/finger dexterity issues. I'm thinking of buying a small and a medium sized tarp to use to get out of the sun/rain/snow so I can simply veg, have some chow, or play HAM Radio. This Rapid Deployable RidgeLine, being stashed in the SUV, makes for a very quick camp setup. Great information in that spending a few hours on the bench at home saves many minutes, time and time again, in setting up a tarp for camping comfort. Great job, my good man. Great job........

This is actually called a soft shackle, they're really popular in sailing. I like the variation with the lark"s head. The other method I think works best if you don't use the fisherman's knot, and instead just tie the two ends facing together with something like a double overhand knot. Good stuff

Nice one Frank. Just made one myself following your steps & very easy to do. Took under an hour to make & dress up. I already use the toggle method on paracord as a bag strap to attach things already but other applications include turning it into a makeshift belt. One thing I'm going to differently is rather than use the paracord loops as a kind of soft shackle, I'm just adding 3 more toggles to the masons line - this way you can pass the masons line loop through the tarp grommet & secure that around the toggle in the same way as you secured the ridgeline. (I'm one of those ex-military guys who likes a little uniformity, plus I think it'd be easier to manage in the dark too). That said though, I always have 550 & Amsteel loops with me so I can always fall back on that as a backup if needed. Great video. Thanks 🙂👍

You should try and put stop knots first and then your overhand loop or bowline knot. This is just a second safety measure so the cord does not slip out of its knot and the burning of the ends melts the cord to itself so that is your 3rd safety. Same goes with the fisherman's knots to keep everything secured. This also creates a larger knot for your Soft shackles to hold on to. You can make two soft shackles from bungy cord and use it to hold your bundle. As you pull your lead line out the bungy cord soft shackle will keep the bundle tight. Once your done and ready to put your ridgeline away you can take the bungy soft shackles off and back on to your bundle like a rubber bands. Good video with good ideas for a rapid ridge line.

That cordage carabiner is actually pretty interesting. Thank you. I usually just use a set sheet bend. For the ridgeline prusik you want more turns than the usual six because prusik actually slacks over time because the cordage you are using is not static. But for overnight, it's should retain the tension. Further you could sheet bend the ridgeline prusik if you want to simplify the system. Overall beautiful.

First of all, nice video, and well done! Great quality of instruction and attention to detail. Thanks. I came to line, knots, ridgelines, etc., due to hammock camping. While it's true that there's nothing new under the sun, it's also true that there's a ton of what isn't new that I haven't learned yet, and I picked up a few pointers in this video. I love paracord. It's strong, and it's grabby so holds knots well, but I don't use it for two reasons: 1. As nylon, it is stretchy, even more so when wet, and so sags badly, and 2. It soaks up and holds water like a sponge. That's why I use UHMWPE, or Dyneema, line. What are your thoughts on that? I really liked the soft-shackle carabiner idea, but only as a fall back. In hammock camping, I was introduced to the idea of "fiddle factor" as an important consideration. While slick as snot on a doorknob, the soft-shackle idea carries a high fiddle factor, relative to mini carabiners, which is what I use. So I will now make sure that I have a hank of paracord (and a lighter) in order to make the soft-shackles when necessary. Also, a mini carabiner is nice to clip the Prusiks together so impossible to come unraveled in storage. The mini-biners are cheap and weigh nothing, so I use them in place of toggles and always carry 4 or 5 extra. This video was so good that I will be checking out your others.

I know those other cords are strong but slippy so I use paracord and bankline. When you have a flexible setup adding tension to wet and sagging line is easy enough.

Great instructional video. You might not believe this, but I've been using almost the exact same method since the 1970s here in Scotland! These days, I use 550 cord, not window cord and a nylon tarp instead of heavy canvas - much easier. My 550 ridgeline is permanently connected through the tarp's apex loops for quick use as it rains a lot here. I still use the old WWII style duffle coat buttons as toggles, though. It made me grin from ear to ear watching this. Thank you.

Great video Frank. May I respectfully add another point which has helped me Sometimes the Prussic knots loosen when on the ridge line and you might have to re-dress them when this happens. A solution to prevent this happening is to tie either a constrictor or button knot to the fist of the prussic and pulling tight. This will keep the Prussic knot always shaped as it should be.

I'm thinking of buying a small and a medium sized tarp to use to get out of the sun/rain/snow so I can simply veg, have some chow, or play HAM Radio. This Rapid Deployable RidgeLine, being stashed in the SUV, makes for a very quick camp setup.

Nice one Frank. Just made one myself following your steps & very easy to do. Took under an hour to make & dress up. I already use the toggle method on paracord as a bag strap to attach things already but other applications include turning it into a makeshift belt. One thing I'm going to differently is rather than use the paracord loops as a kind of soft shackle, I'm just adding 3 more toggles to the masons line - this way you can pass the masons line loop through the tarp grommet & secure that around the toggle in the same way as you secured the ridgeline. (I'm one of those ex-military guys who likes a little uniformity, plus I think it'd be easier to manage in the dark too). That said though, I always have 550 & Amsteel loops with me so I can always fall back on that as a backup if needed. Great video. Thanks 🙂👍

Agreed
You should try and put stop knots first and then your overhand loop or bowline knot. This is just a second safety measure so the cord does not slip out of its knot and the burning of the ends melts the cord to itself so that is your 3rd safety. Same goes with the fisherman's knots to keep everything secured. This also creates a larger knot for your Soft shackles to hold on to. You can make two soft shackles from bungy cord and use it to hold your bundle. As you pull your lead line out the bungy cord soft shackle will keep the bundle tight. Once your done and ready to put your ridgeline away you can take the bungy soft shackles off and back on to your bundle like a rubber bands. Good video with good ideas for a rapid ridge line.

That cordage carabiner is actually pretty interesting. Thank you. I usually just use a set sheet bend. For the ridgeline prusik you want more turns than the usual six because prusik actually slacks over time because the cordage you are using is not static. But for overnight, it's should retain the tension. Further you could sheet bend the ridgeline prusik if you want to simplify the system. Overall beautiful.

Glad it was helpful!
First of all, nice video, and well done! Great quality of instruction and attention to detail. Thanks. I came to line, knots, ridgelines, etc., due to hammock camping. While it's true that there's nothing new under the sun, it's also true that there's a ton of what isn't new that I haven't learned yet, and I picked up a few pointers in this video. I love paracord. It's strong, and it's grabby so holds knots well, but I don't use it for two reasons: 1. As nylon, it is stretchy, even more so when wet, and so sags badly, and 2. It soaks up and holds water like a sponge. That's why I use UHMWPE, or Dyneema, line. What are your thoughts on that? I really liked the soft-shackle carabiner idea, but only as a fall back. In hammock camping, I was introduced to the idea of "fiddle factor" as an important consideration. While slick as snot on a doorknob, the soft-shackle idea carries a high fiddle factor, relative to mini carabiners, which is what I use. So I will now make sure that I have a hank of paracord (and a lighter) in order to make the soft-shackles when necessary. Also, a mini carabiner is nice to clip the Prusiks together so impossible to come unraveled in storage. The mini-biners are cheap and weigh nothing, so I use them in place of toggles and always carry 4 or 5 extra. This video was so good that I will be checking out your others.

Fantastic version of this. Love the idea of not needing to tie teucker's hitches or such at deploy. Didn't have any way of making wooden toggles for mine so made prusik diamond knots amd used arbours to connect to rhem

Excellent video, yeah?.... yeah.
Love soft shackles. I’ve used them for years .
Great instructional video. You might not believe this, but I've been using almost the exact same method since the 1970s here in Scotland! These days, I use 550 cord, not window cord and a nylon tarp instead of heavy canvas - much easier. My 550 ridgeline is permanently connected through the tarp's apex loops for quick use as it rains a lot here. I still use the old WWII style duffle coat buttons as toggles, though. It made me grin from ear to ear watching this. Thank you.

Awesome video Frank! I can't wait for more bush craft videos from you! Longtime Subscriber, so it's always a good day when you post a video! Any more "Muletape" videos coming up? When you used it, it was a real eye opener and you are the only person on youtube I have seen use it for bush craft! You always show us such great ideas and innovations for bush craft, thank you Frank!😀👍🌲

Hey Bob thanks, it has been a while since I saw your name popup. Ya I am hoping to get out again soon, was out in the area exploring new terrain last weekend just never setup there. There had been logging protests in the area so they locked down large areas with gates and security people, just waiting for the area to calm down and clear out.

@@frankbush333 Hey Frank, yeah it's been a while since I last posted a comment. Your solar projects were interesting but not something I can do/use in my current situation! Bush craft, now that's more my bag! I hope all the logging troubles clear ups soon and we get to see more of you in the woods/forests! I look forward to more of your videos in the future!
Great video Frank. May I respectfully add another point which has helped me Sometimes the Prussic knots loosen when on the ridge line and you might have to re-dress them when this happens. A solution to prevent this happening is to tie either a constrictor or button knot to the fist of the prussic and pulling tight. This will keep the Prussic knot always shaped as it should be.

That’s a great system. I’m definitely going to be using some of the components for mine. Recently I started using the “cordage carabiners” as a prusik and has made things a lot easier for me. Thanks for the video

permanent toggle on the ridgeline is a great idea . I will stick with small carabiners but if one breaks I know what to do 👍 . I have my ridge line permanently attached to my tarp with small carabiners goes up even quicker then so long as I am using the A frame or diamond framed tarp setup which i use 99%of the time

Definitely a better system than the truckers hitch which frays the cordage to much by pulling it against itself.
I di the same thing but I put a toggle on each prusik. Way faster than a soft shackle.

Ya, there are many different configurations you can use in this type of setup, some of my other rapid Ridgelines have it as you say as well, this video is designed to be educational to bring people up to speed with this type of thinking. Thanks for watching, more coming soon cheers!
Fantastic content! I changed my ridgeline setup almost identical to yours after watching this video. The only difference I made was that I did not use the carabiner paracord, I already incorporated a toggle on those prusiks to just insert them on the tarp straps when setting the tarp up. The actual setup was rapid. Thanks for putting out this video!

I love this ridge line design although I wouldn't bother with the cordage Carribina, instead I would just put a toggle on each prussik loop,l. Then pull the toggle through the tarp loop and back between the two lines of the prussik loop. Much more secure and less fuss.
