Thats a great technique for those who carry around 2 larges poles with them or they have a saw that can cut 2 large poles. Most of the time a person isnt just going to come across 2 poles of that size, strength, and similar length
That’s why every army vehicle carries an axe, shovel, and pick. You cut the poles from surrounding area. But if you’re stuck out in the desert or somewhere without trees then it gets fun.
A folding saw will cut poles of that size. It is one of the most useful tools in the woods besides an axe and a knife and I always carry one in my pack
Exactly. So just do much easier thing of keepin come-along with you. I live in back country and always have a 3ton come-along, cheater pipe for leverage, and couple tow straps along with 50foot 5/16" cable.
Was the point of this video to show people how to do this or just to show people that YOU know how to do this? Because, it was very light on the actual details of how to put it together.
I guess it depends on your perspective. With the visual presentation of the wrapping of the line around the poles, what more information, in a verbal form, do you need? In contrast, watching that one cited by ProspectorTim is about 12.5 minutes of mostly irrelevant verbiage that mainly served to interrupt the continuity of the more informative visual portions. e.g. what does it matter that one pole is cedar and the other is pine; or the knot chosen to tie to his truck. Such matters are just distractions from the real issue of how the winch works. Now, having said that, I felt Creek Stewart did leave us hanging. At about the 30 second point he moved one branch of the line to the other side of the pole and declared that was critical. Why?? He never told us. And frankly, I'm not so sure it is critical. I've seen it done both ways.
You did it the correct way. I have seen many videos where they put the rope on both sides of the log. This technique is also known as Spanish Windless, but it is done on the ground.
Creek - awesome! And I thought I'd about heard it all, survival-skills-wise. I guess as long as humans are resourceful and inventive, there will be virtually endless survival skills to discover... or to teach. It's "all good medicine"... 🐾🐾🐾
Excellent idea, provided you have the equipment,not that heavy to pull over,I once pulled a light truck,about 4 tonne out of a bog on level ground,using good quality ropes tied to the bottom of a fence post using the rope hitch method with 2 loops . 🇦🇺 Australia
Assuming the tow line is 1 foot from the ground, at 6 feet total lever length you are winching 5lb per 1lb applied. This is probably double that. ~6inches
For the poles you can use some logs, for the anchor point you can use ground anchoring, but you still need the rope...if you are that unprepared you shouldn't go into the wilderness alone or just walk
I seem to recall seing a vid about making a windless wincc which involves a couple stout pole like you used. But instead of flipping, one pole is veryicle while one is horizontal. One end of the stra is tied to the load while the other is tied to an anchor point, like a tree. Does that sound familiar?
you really didn't show how it worked, why I dunno you seemed to cut out the most important parts? but for folks who want to see exactly how to make on and see how to use one then just search flip flop winch..
Good tips for idiots who go off all by themselves into the middle of nowhere and think not telling anyone where they’re going is the key to the glorious pure solitude they stupidly seek.
Thank you cowboy Legolas
Lmao
🤣
Lol
😂😂😂😂
you answered the question my brain wouldn't shut up about xD
Are you teasing us your leaving out 80 percent of how to do this
FIled that one away for sure into my mental toolbox. Thank you for sharing!

So you lie down and die.
Just run down to the local hardware store
or call a tow truck . LoL 😂

Here's another video showing more detail.

When you're on your way to a Halloween party, but you rip your car over 😂
Or, as we call it here, Wednesday.
I gotta get a couple of racks set up in my closet to hold all of my sashes, kechefs and a little tree stand for my scrunchies.
I remember watching this when i was younger, he is my all time favorite
I do like simple yet highly effective skills. Nice, very nice showed why I may need it too.
When did kid rock become a Navajo medicine man?
I will have more success doing this by taking instructions from the hokey pokey than watching this post.

This is the most important part, so we will demonstrate it very quickly so you won’t pick up on the “how” and likely will watch someone else’s video.
Why did you not show how you attached it to the tree?
Sherry Dee: round turn and two half hitches...
...cuz there's a 45,000 lb military drag winch hidden in the tree...
@@paradiseroad6405 😂
I watched a couple of guys doing dis but did not grok it.
your demo sank in ta. 🤠
Weather channel finally talking about pole flips?
Good idea bro
in physics. this is leverage.
Archimedes said -- Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world.
Thank you
I've been walking around the forest for 2 days and could not find the same type of poles you got.
Assuming the tow line is 1 foot from the ground, at 6 feet total lever length you are winching 5lb per 1lb applied. This is probably double that. ~6inches
I guess....as long at you just happen to have a couple of poles, a strap, and a large tree. Worthwhile though, I can see that.
For the poles you can use some logs, for the anchor point you can use ground anchoring, but you still need the rope...if you are that unprepared you shouldn't go into the wilderness alone or just walk
You just need a tow rope and a hatchet and a length of wire, honestly. Chop a couple saplings down, strip the branches and you're good to go.
Wow!
Whoever thought of this is / was a genius.
Great reference Creek!
Couldn’t show an uncut version of him changing angles huh….
interesting knowledge. thanks
It's a shame you DIDN'T show the complete technique.

One end of the stra is tied to the load while the other is tied to an anchor point, like a tree.
Does that sound familiar?
Why not use 1 pole as a lever?
I gotta write that down so I don't forget.
yooo when did chris jericho start doing survival vids
this guy gives 0 credits with that pants
I BET THAT'S WHAT WAS USED TO BUILD THE ANCIENT PYRAMIDS, ETC. ❤
that is fucking awesome!!
why not just use the two poles as a lever to flip the jeep over?
Yeahhhh this shows it being done, but not especially HOW to set it up!
Get a piece of string and 2 straws and practice. Do the S like he said, then move the one part over the end, like he showed.
It's not good that way to change view each 3 sec . stay on the same camera, it will be easier for us
you really didn't show how it worked, why I dunno you seemed to cut out the most important parts? but for folks who want to see exactly how to make on and see how to use one then just search flip flop winch..
How they built the pyramids, lost mechanical advantage setups like this.
I do not feel alive
Too much missing data
How much fuel was dumped in the creek to make this video?
Why am I first
Not sure why you skipped inserting the poles. That would have made this video useful.
dean schneider - why did YOU skip 0:22-0:30 ? there he shows, how to insert the poles
Pyramids
頭いい( ´∀｀ )b❗️
This video needs less Hollywood fashion/ melodrama and more instruction.
This is the poorest video example of how to use this so far
Terrible demonstration, IF you were actually trying to educate anyone unfamiliar with the two pole wrench.
A very poor waste of time. THUMBS DOWN!
Why dress like the 1800’s though?
