In this short instruction video we show you clearly how you tie the VT knot or the Valdotain Tresse. The VT knot is often used in single rope climbing systems combined with a micro pulley and a rope wrench.
The VT knot is considered more difficult to tie than for example the Distel Hitch or the Blake's hitch. It's recommended to first try the knot low above the ground until you are fully familiar with it before you implement it in your climbing system. The VT knot is not as fool proof as a prusik hitch or a Klemheist.
