- Nick from TreeStuff.com gives an easy lesson on tying a few of the basic knots used in the tree care industry, including a running bowline, alpine butterfly, blake's hitch, and slipknot.
This video is 6 years old. But it's a GREAT PLEASURE to watch and brush up on some knots. Straight forward with out 30 minutes of BS. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
I seriously just cut down a 80 ft tree just now using your video. It was hanging over a power line and a hunting cabin sitting on a hill, tied a rope to my truck and cut that sucker down. Thanks brother
This has been a pleasure to listen to, Easy for me to understand the instructions, Direct explanation without a bunch of extra crap that doesn't really matter! Thank you, Nick, you just made my job a whole lot easier and safer. Take care and happy climbing.
you made the best video for aborist sofar i saw.Very glad to see more ones of such basic techniks.
Glad you liked it
This helped me a LOT to tie off a tree and made me feel comfortable that the knot wouldn't give out on me! Thank you!
Great video, I understand it, I am an arborist. Beginners will have to get the basics first then look at this a couple of times. I like the explaination of the difference of the marlinspike and the slip knot. I always called them both the slip knot, just orientated in a different direction, one for pulling up, one for pulling down.
Well done, good view of your arms?
Great video! Thanks!
Great video
I love those variations to that bowline. Thanks for sharing
Excellant instruction. Thank you for not using that rabbit and hole drivel.
Thanks Nick!
When you realize that a slip know is the mother of so many knots. A bowline is a slip knot with the short end passed through the loop. A butterfly is a pulled slip. A fisheman is a doubled slip. and so on. You just have to learn different ways to tie a slip and so many other knots become easier and more understandable when added from a slip knot starting position.
I liked the video and am trying to learn these knots but most of the time i had trouble seeing thru your hands so i couldn't really tell what you were doing.

You rock! Thank you.
Nice looking cherry bomb from All Gear!
After 30 yrs that bowline never fails....
Is your rope a static or a dynamic rope ?
Can a slip knot be used for tieing off a limb ? I've always used the bowline but I have a limb that's way out and I'm going to have to get a loop around it such as the slipknot features to hook it with a pruner and pull it tight. I will have a groundmens keeping constant pressure and holding it tight. Does this matter?
Thanks !
Nice
Professor nick
I have a bunch of 20-30 foot rigging rope pieces I got in the "bag o rope". It's all 5/8 to 3/4 inch diameter. What should I do with these pieces? I'm new to rope rigging and trying to figure what to do with these sections. Thanks again for any help!
You could tie up dead eye slings? Make spiderlegs?
You kind of look like Steve-O! Haha! Killer video though!
Michael Martin that’s what I thought the first second of the video!
YEAH DUDE!
I totally see that as well 😂
pro tip: you can watch movies on flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies recently.
@Sam Evan definitely, have been watching on flixzone} for months myself =)
Great color for the rope. The proper term is 'Turn' nor 'Twist'. Regarding the first part of the Bowline.
Turn, Bight, and Twist, they are all different.
Actually the correct term would be a loop. A turn is a loop around an object.
prioritytree - rope is cherry bomb from all gear inc
Can someone tell what that kind of rope that is. I am trying to find the correct kind so I can practice arborist knots
Looks like Johnny Knoxville and Steve O had a baby.
What about the figure 8 knot between the bowline and Blake's hitch in case of rescue.
What rope do you recommend for tree 🌲 climbing 🧗♀️ ?
Hemp
Would you really recommend a bowline for life support? The loop that it makes does not cinch down on the carabiner, therefore making it possible to side load.
+Stuart French stick w/ a figure 8 or double fisherman
+frank t I am either on a splice, anchor bend, or triple fishermans.
@Jake McCoy is right but I am going to add this Blake's is the only one here I wouldn't use
Need a midline knot like the butterfly but will untie after extreme loading of the loop.
Try a bowline on a bight!
what size line and type do you use?
This particular rope is All Gear Cherry Bomb
What do you think of an anchor bend? I've been told its a safe climbing knot, and even that you don't need a stopper just a decent tail. But it looks so bare I'm not sure I can trust it. Very fast to tie/untie though!
Taut line hitch is the ideal climbing method. I can't explain it with words, you'd have to look it up.
Anchor Hitch is good to secure a line to a carabiner so that it will not shift position. Leave a long enough tail to tie a Blake’s Hitch, and it makes an excellent climbing Hitch with minimal bulk.
heyyyyy steveoooo
no bullshit. perfect and thanks!
You change camera angle in middle of knot,very confusing
if you are concerned about side loading with any knot just make a night appropriate for the object being tied to. No different then the Right family and Nine family.
Wow
See man, I used to tie them like that when I worked on towboats in the 80's but the capt didn't like it because the tag end is in the loop. So my squirrel started going the other direction around the tree so the tag end is outside the loop.
the Rabbit come out of the hole goes around the three and back to the hole ,( bowline)
Cannot see demonstration because of camera angle.
good video but you forearm is in the way.. im in training for the arborist coarse in new zealand
Blazed Kiwi how’s the arborist work coming along
Thanks for this mate going to use this to commit no oxygen in lungs!
why bowline? its too difficult and takes time
Правильно,вместо булиня можно использовать узел Стремя! Это быстрее!
The camera angle puts your hands and arms blocking view of the knots you're tying.
A bite is not a bend.
Not a "Marin spike, " rather, a "marlin spike hitch."
Is quite hard to see when ur freaking hands are in front of the knot the whole time
Like your gonna be working with trees stay in the kitchen
Tiffany, I hope that you take another look at the video now that it is a year or so later. There are a couple of places where the other side of the knot could have been shown so one knows it’s correct- like the alpine butterfly... to know what to look fo to be sure it’s not an alpine ‘moth’. And I could be way out on a limb here- but perhaps “catch” just got caught being insecure with themselves if they are “bashing” a chick that is entering or already in the industry. I’m thinking there are far more trees in the world than arbourist. Not like you are going to take their job. I think it sounds like they are capable of messing it up themselves. And if that’s not the case- I sure wouldn’t want the company or that person to be anywhere around my neck of the woods with that attitude. Maybe they were just “hangry”. I hope whatever is or was going so bitter in their life at the time of their reply has subsided and maybe they are “feeling much better now.” Stay awesome, Tiffany.
catch-... just want to check in with you. Are you okay? (In all sincerity, I am wondering if you noticed this was a video on knots- not about how to try to discourage anyone from doing anything.)
does it matter what color rope you have?................lol, had to lol haaaa haaa haaaa lol.
You make too fast your knots..!!!! Slow Please !!!
i thought steve-o died
Can't see a thing...
terrible camera angles
Learn how to film you can't see anything!!!
Way too fadt
this moves way to fast for me to keep up
thumb in the way on the first one, arm in the way on the second one. E for Effort, but you need a camera person
Not very helpful. Changed view and hands/arms in the way
I’ve been tying and using Blake’s Hitch for 20 years. It cannot, and never has, “rolled out”. If you believe the safety knot is required, or even useful, you simply do not understand the dynamics of this knot (Blake’s Hitch).
Redundancy. Like when someone teaches a kid to never point a gun at anyone, loaded or unloaded. Nobody every got shot by an unloaded gun, but the advice builds habits that could save lives.
Some kid is going to tie Blake’s hitch wrong today, fail to dress it properly etc. and then ascend on it, and that tail stop is going to save his life
@@CaliforniaCarpenter7 Well said. And while we "should" never fly when it's raining, freezing, use a bad rope (too slippery, frayed, too small or short), messed up the knot, don't dress it properly, let the knot get jammed in the pulley..., in the long run it's better to be safe than sorry.
This is not an effective video for beginners. Your hands are in the way often making it even more difficult to understand.
Slow down dude. I can't even follow you
Had to go watch a different video. Too fast and no good views of the knots. When you're actually teaching people something you have to remember that they don't know how to do it. It's not just a refresher course. And oh yeah, pitiful camera work.
Sorry to hear that we filmed this 7 years ago and we were still learning. There are updated videos on our channel though.
Great video
