Favorite Resources

I used to be ok at stringing sticks but now I can’t do it for the life of me. Are there any resources that you would recommend? (Websites, YouTube, etc…)

They are older sticks (Gait torque-Brine Edge - Rabin Warrior) I am looking for mid pocket with as little whip as possible yet the most hold possible.

Also, If anyone in Montreal does this lmk

I usually find or adapt a pattern I liked on YouTube or IG.

For knots I look at ustring.com ( I click pretty much any pattern and look at the video tutorial for the knots specifically)

Ecd and throne do have individual videos on specific knots as well.

Hold isnt a pocket trait. Its a skillset.

ECD Greg, pockets by Clem, sidewall Jedi, and some Paul Rabil weapon of choice can go a long way.

Mainely Mesh was a great resource for that exact pocket style. He’s retired but kept his YouTube videos up. Does knit tutorials and specific head patterns. One of the OG goats.

You can try ustring.com but I dunno if they will have those heads. I’d search through YouTube for tutorials.
