Скачать или смотреть Prusik Shackle

The prusik shackle is a "magic knot" with a loop that is very handy for tying ankles to things. It is very easy to adjust but will not tighten or enlarge under tension.

It only wraps the limb with two strands of rope, so it is not appropriate for wrists (see my flogging cuff) or any form of suspension. But it is good for tying ankles to a cross or the bedposts.

I use shorter scrap ten foot ropes to pretie two of these and keep them in my gear bag. They can be a bit fiddly to tie so it's best to make them up beforehand.

The prusik knot works better with natural fiber rope like hemp or jute. Man made rope like nylon is sometimes a bit too slippery for the knot to hold well.

Use only on a consenting partner!

I teach it in: Cazar's Rope 101 Class.

I have created these videos so that my students can review and practice the ties that they learned in my class.

I did not create this tie. I've seen it many other places. It's just a handy tie to know, and an easy beginner tie.
