Shear Lashing

Shear Lashing works for poles that have been laid side by side next to each
other, because the ends are held not just by the shear lashing, but by the
round lashing, as well. If you’re having problems with security, it is best to
keep in mind that you could hold them as tightly as possible while you are

standing near the pole.

Instructions:

1. First, tie a clove hitch around one of the poles.
2. Then, use a simple lashing to wrap both poles with.
3. Now, make 2 to 3 frapping turns so you could wrap the lashing.
4. Use a clove hitch to tie the ends, and make sure to spread the poles
together, as well.
