Step 1: Form a loop in the rope. Step 2: Form a second loop in the opposite direction to the first. Click the image above for a closer look. Some people do this by crossing their hands over (like an X), grabbing the rope in each hand and then drawing two loops whilst uncrossing hands again. Step 3: Place the second loop over the first. Step 4: Clip a carabiner through the loops. Step 5: Pull tight.
