CMC Fundamentals: Learn Your Knots - Figure 8 on a Bight

In this video, CMC shows how to tie a Figure 8 on a Bight. We use the Figure 8 family of knots for making loops to anchor the end of the rope and for connecting rescue rope together. The Figure 8 on a Bight creates a loop for connecting a carabiner to the rope.

If you have any questions about knots, equipment, or education, please email the CMC Instructors at askaninstructor@cmcpro.com or visit the CMC School page for class schedules.
