Usage
The Voodoo Hitch, also referred to as the Transport Hitch, is a remarkable tensioning system. It provides a convenient method to add easily adjustable tension to a fixed rope. The name "Voodoo Hitch" stems from the fact that it is not readily apparent how the tensioning system works and it feels a bit like pure magic!One notable advantage of the Voodoo Hitch, when compared to similar systems like the Trucker's hitch, is its ability to finely adjust the tension on the rope without the need to untie and re-tie the knot. This feature allows for precise tuning of the tension, enhancing its versatility. Furthermore, unlike the Trucker's Hitch, the Voodoo Hitch does not necessitate a locking finishing knot.
The Voodoo Hitch finds applications in various fields, including swift water rescue.
Warning
Verify tying technique with a skilled instructor where knot failure could cause property damage, injury, or death.Also known as
