Rolling Hitch

                The Rolling hitch is great when you use old-school ropes as modern ropes
                could be quite slippery. This is perfect for taking the strain off the rope so
                you could create a proper supporting line.

                Instructions:

                      1.  Let the end pass around the main rope of the half hitch.

                       2.  Do so until you have returned over the first turn of the rope.
                       3.  Tuck the said rope between the rope’s standing end so that the first
                          turn could be tightened.
                       4.  Secure the rope tight until you have added one last half hitch.
