Summary

Description

How to tie a Prusik knot. Step 4.


This setup is potentially dangerious in a climbing situation. Prusiks are generally tied out of cord, not webbing, since cord has much better holding power and is less likely to jam. More importantly Spectra and Dynema have a low melting point and should never be exposed to friction. Also, these materials are somewhat slippery making them less useful in knots.
