I'm Back!

Hi everyone,

I've been offline for a month working on big projects behind the scenes that I wasn't able to do while making my usual video content. But I'm back!

Your Square Knot Sucks! (FREE TUTORIAL)

Did you know the way most people tie a square knot completely sucks? It's true. There's a few details that COMPLETELY change its structural integrity. In this video I'll show you the weak way to tie it, and a MUCH stronger way to tie it. In order to teach this confidently, I tested both methods against 45lb weights.
