Master the 12 Recon Knots Recon candidates have earned the nickname “Ropers” because they are required to wear a rappelling rope around their shoulders for the entirety of training. In fact, candidates must show proficiency in tying 12 specific knots in order to get into the Basic Reconnaissance Course. While it's common for Recon candidates to be focused on areas of physicality, such as running, rucking, and swimming, it's often the little things that are overlooked that can lead to a potential drop from selection. One of these areas is the knot-tying test out. Why the Recon Rope? Our Recon Rope isn’t just any regular rope - it’s a replica of the exact one you’ll be using in Recon training, cut to the specific length you’ll need. Yeah, we know, you can buy any rope to tie knots with - but why not practice with the rope you’ll be using throughout training? Plus, a rope of this quality doesn’t just come in 13 foot increments. If you want to buy a rappelling rope, you’re looking at getting some of them at upwards of 100 feet, and you don’t need that much! We give you what you need, but most importantly, at an affordable price. Save some money, practice with the real deal, and get ahead of the game. Get yourself a Recon rope today! P.S. - We show you the ropes, pun intended! If you buy our Recon Rope, not only are you going to learn how to tie knots with the rope you’ll be using in training, we also show you how to tie the 12 Recon Knots! As shown on our Recon Knot Tying Guide Video, the 12 Recon Knots you’ll need to know are: Square Knot Water Tape Double Sheet Bend Bowline Around an Object Clove Hitch Round Turn 2 Half Hitch Figure 8 Loop Bowline on a Bight 4 Finger Prusik Secured with a Bowline Directional Figure 8 Rappel Seat Bowline Around the Body with a Figure 8
