      @@ECD , word. I can totally understand that. That’s where it gets tricky when doing it is going through the back of the scoop and coming back through the loop to set the knot up properly. Can totally see why that would be hard to film, especially if not filming from above. I’ll keep going with the trial and error.

      @@ECD , there’s a video from a bit back on Powell Lacrosse’s channel that shows how to string the “Powell Pocket.” That setup uses a hidden nine diamond top and that video did decently showing how to do it without using sophisticated camera angles. It was the explanation on that video that got me over the hump. Take a look at the top string portion of that video and see if that shakes some ideas loose for you all.

      Super tight! If your top string is loose the pocket can still work but won't hold up over time.

    Is there any reason for skipping holes?

    • @ECD
      @ECD  Před 7 lety

      You can use all the holes it's just an easier way to do this than a 6 hitch

      Practice, practice, practice. Stick with Noah it can be a frustrating task at first but once you understand the concept it does get easier with repetitions.
