Matt's got a great show but it's all show and drama. He uses kinetic recovery 95% of the time when a winch is safer/better, but there's no drama in most winching.
it’s not all show and drama.

95% is an exaggeration.

Winching is not always safer and better, especially when the winch has steel cable.

Winching has to be done right to avoid drama.

All the synthetic ropes on Amazon are junk, don't load it up. The best rope for the money is the 12K harbor freight synthetic rope and it's about $110 shipped.
Well idk, mine is rated for 23809lbs (Dyneema) but if I had to do it again I think I may have ordered this Xbull; https://tinyurl.com/xbull32000

How is the HF overseas rope better than the Amazon overseas ropes?
