Just the video i was looking for but i dont think ill be using it for the same thing. Here in nevada theres no such thing as a natural anchor so when i get my 4x4 stuck theres usually nothing to winch to, when i brougt up using t-posts as an anchor in a local 4x4 group they advised me a picket system would be much safer and that theyd used it before to recover themselves with no issues

Cool. That is exactly the circumstance where you would use a picket system. Glad you found my video. Cheers

I had to make that video quickly as the mound of dirt I filmed on was moved the next day. Glad you liked it.

Do you have a Petzl I'D there? Looks like a newer one.

Yep, a Petzl I"D. It's not really new though. Several years ago Petzl changed their cover to where you had to insert the carabiner through it instead of swinging it shut onto the carabiner for perceived safety reasons, which is what I have. The newer versions have returned to the swing cover which eliminates the chance of you dropping it as it stays clipped into your harness. Just load the rope and swing the cover shut.

Where can I purchase the pickets and stakes?

Just search for tent stakes. Or go through a rescue gear company like ParaTech or the equivalent. Our standards for rescue applications were that they had to be at least 1 inch in diameter and 48 inches long. In the video I improvised and used three "spud" bars just to show the process but in the thumbnail photo I used certified "rescue" stakes off of a fire truck. But they are just glorified large tent stakes really.

The lowering device makes you a lefty haha. Right-handed through and through. I feel sorry for lefties learning knots and such because everybody teaching is right-handed.
