- Thanks for 500 Subs Everyone!
In this episode we go over what I believe to be the two most important hitches to know in climbing. The clove and munter hitch. These two are fundamental and will be used very often in climbing. I also use the clove in all sorts outdoorsy adventurers its a great skill to know. Hope you enjoy

Thanks for the great video! If I could make one suggestion for future knot videos it would be to arrange the camera so we see what you see...instead of it being inverted. Thanks!
Nathan Fry appreciate the tip!
Agree. Image could be rotated (not flipped) in edit. Could be done to this one and re-uploaded.
Thanks for the video, as I am a bit rusty on my knots. I hit the subscribe button also, RLTW!
Cool videos, Thanks!
I'm not really into climbing, but was taught way back when to always arrange the clove hitch so the load bearing strand is closest to the 'spine' of the carabiner. Doing so is much easier on the carabiner if/when heavily loaded.
Looks like I'm late discovering your channel, but have just now subscribed... Thanks again!
good video...that very helpfull knot for every day life...
best Knot teacher on you tube its so funny i have watched so many videos trying to figure out the alpine butterfly.... I think why you are so good at teaching knots OR hitches is because you show how you would do it wrong. so funny almost none of the other videos show that
Congrats on 20k subs and growing :)
Nice, indeed very important knots. I used the clove hitch for fixing myself to the anchor point (it's great because the length can be easily adjusted). And the munter hitch was always used for belaying the rope partner in a special screw carabine, there was never a need for a special belay device that time (probably times are changing).
Your tutorials are very nice and instructive. keep it up.
Max Headshot thanks I really appreciate it 👍🏻
Congrats on 500, keep doing your thing and your channel will def keep growing
José Humberto Morales Thanks 🙏🏻
thanks this was a good reminder on the knots i need when trad climbing
Kelvin Climber 👍🏻👍🏻
Great channel, thank you!!!!!!! You do a great job explaining things!! Keep up the good work! Subscribed....
GSrider911 Awesome!
Congrats on 4 k subs🥳🥳
Oliver Collard 😁🤙🏻
BetaClimbers, thanks for liking my comment, I hope that this relatively small milestone represents what this channel can and probably will grow into in the future, keep up the amazing content 👍👍
Great episode thank you!!! New subscriber. Been watching for a while just somehow failed to sub till now.
Again, amazing channel pall! I bet if you keep the quality content you will become well known in the climbing wold.
BTW Can’t wait to see the content of your trip!
Cheers!
Paulo Abreu thanks so much really appreciate it! Comments like this keep me hyped to keep it up. 🤙🏻
Happy 500 subs✌
Bradley Wilson thanks 🤙🏻
Nice ty, every once in a while i leave the ground and find my prusik is on the wrong side of my grigri (In a 2 line top rope solo set up) and unclip my grigri (keeping the prusik on so not a huge worry) and think to myself "man dropping this would not be good". Grigri around $170, not needing rescue to safely descend priceless .
Thanks for the content!
First time I see someone with the Grivel twingate... Question: 1) Do You like them and for what do You use them? Thanks
I dig that you mentioned a couple of the weaknesses of these hitches. Perhaps in the future you could also include a couple of the simple variations such as the Constrictor and Super Munter hitches which better handle slippage and coiling respectively.
Charlie S. You got it!
Late on the vid, you are currently at 27.9K and, gained another. Enjoy the content, attitude, dry humor. Keep it up and love the rope management content.
It will no longer cease to not exist. 👌
Thank you so much
There are some sweet ways to make a one handed clove hitch. Still trying to figure out the one handed clove hitch on a biner.
How are you liking that double gate biner? Looks to me like a regular autolocker is faster. May be more reliable in dirt though.
I love it man, keep it up. I guess the best way to prompt you for things will be here in the comments.
I would love to hear you break down all the different lockers and non lockers and when to use them and when NOT to use them. Locking ovals for ascenders in rope soloing vs non-locking ovals for racking certain item ( and why). Never use "these ones" because they can jam up or not function in self rescue. I mean, the questions are endless but a nice overview on the best way to organize and rack *useful items, efficiently and with purpose* could help get rid of some clutter. Thank you.
I mean, here are some simple other vid ideas with the same format ---> Friction hitches, when to use for rappelling, when to use for ascending, which ones should you never bother learning, which ones should you never use in certain situations.
You get the idea, we need aggregated info from someone we like and trust; we like you, you make info for our ears and faces for us to do whatever we choose so that our meat vessels will continue uninjured. :)
I would like to know how to lace up a horizontal crack, what gear to use, how to use it, how to trust it, what it looks like, what gear will fail, how will the fall rip the pro....
I would like to know if using two mirco trax, to TR rope solo, will malfunction if they come into contact with eachother... I personally use a micro traction on a chest sling and a left hand ascender on a belay loop, what is the danger there or the best option.
r q Awesome comment 👏🏻👏🏻 I’ll have to write some of this down for later lol I do have a carabiners episode for you to check out on my channel might answer some of those questions!
I haven’t really had the traxs malfunction when they are butted up against eachother yet. But I do want to come up with a way to prevent that I think it’s just a little sloppy but gets the job done.
Thanks so much for your support it keeps me going 👍🏻
Nice video.
500 subs to 40k+ 👍🏽
ㅎㅎ굿
Good.This is korea.
Great video. One suggestion though: there is a way to tie those two hitches using one hand which is extremely helpful in numerous situations.

Hey josh, just a suggestion for future vids, do you think you could flip the video 180 degrees after you film it so that it's in a first person view? It'd just be easier to follow i think. Love your vids man, my favourite climbing channel :) (edit: saw that someone already suggested that, nvm ahaha)
Yeah I get that a lot lol but it gives me a good reason to remake all the classics hahaha 🤙🏻
As I was about to write that you just couldnt pick a more auckward carabiner for this tutorial, you mentioned packing most of your stuff for the trip. Not surprised this dual gate is not going with you:)
Hey man could you make a video on how to set up a bottom anchor system for sport lead soloing? Like I'd really like to be able to tie into the first bolt and use both the left and right adjacent bolts as back ups...i guess to simplify how / can I have a multi-directional knot that would be cool/safe to use for this
To specify I've done this for a long time and my system is more complex and thorough than I made it sound but it's hard to communicate with words the many different scenarios and ways that I build my bottom anchors lol just looking for advice on this one situation...or as much advice as your willing to give if any I guess 😅
Gotcha I’ll see what I can do 🤙🏻
It would be SUUUUPER cool if you did a series (you'd be the first one) where you take a pitch and send it. Then, we break it down with what gear you placed along the way (then maybe rap in and show the actual placement and maybe even discuss the integrity of the piece and why it was or was not acceptable...) , movements, variety of placements...
Another question, if I am going to lead rope solo a trad climb, when i build my anchor ( facing up) would it be smart to place a piece above the anchor to clove hitch the rope to, keeping the anchor in the correct orientation for the send? Will this shock load? So many questions. Thank you for everything!!! I just got back from a solo trip and can't wait to get back out.
r q sweet! Hope you had a great time. Haha funny thing is I have been planning to make some videos of just what you described. Lol I’m just super busy at the moment but I’ll get to it soon.
As for the anchor question I’ll try to tackle that in a future video prob in a mail time. 🤙🏻
@@BetaClimbers All good my friend, climb safe!
Really sad because amazon said the gift card was not valid, I guess I was too late. Anyway, I loved the video and I’m excited to give the munter knot a try.
Trey Smith gotta get that bell on lol you never know when I’ll drop one. Don’t worry I’ll drop something at 1000 subs next. My wife wants me to do a blooper video at 1000 too but it will be very cringey 😂
"500 sub special" Your channel has 41k subs now, I must be late.
“ grab a rope like that and do this” lol
Good vid. But it's upside down, it would help if you oriented the vids so that it's as if we are looking down at our own hands. thmx
I wonder if 50 people actually used the gift card
классно конечно же,но увы,нет у меня такой оснасточки,а хотелось бы её заиметь,очень,в смысле дорого,очень,каждая мелочушечка непомерно дорогая.
I'm having a real hard time following you. I really don't understand at all. I have tied these before in the army only 2 months ago and was looking for a refresher. But the video makes no sense to me.
Thomas Marquette where did I lose you at maybe I can try to help you out here or let me know what I could have done better for my future videos. 🤙🏻
@@BetaClimbers I'm still having trouble trying to remember the clove hitch. When you do it it looks real easy but you do it really fast and I'm not sure where I'm messing up at
Thomas Marquette oh I see I should have done it super slow, my bad. To be honest the Clove hitch Is bit tricky sometimes I can even get it confused and have to play around a few times to get it right.
But once you know you got it right inspect it and practice it. Like I mentioned in the video once you learn what to look for when it’s done right you will know you got it or knot.
Maybe annoying but just try laying a rope on a table like I got and hitting pause and play on the video. If a ropes in front of you It’s basically just two clockwise half turns stacked on top of each other. The later turn on top of the first.
