How were you using ratchet straps wrong?

- qup 2y agoWell, I didn't know the reason I was opening the ratchet handle--the opposing end has a cam on it, so it moves a metal bit out of the way of the ratcheting teeth. I would pull that thing out of the way with a finger on my second hand (when under load it can be very hard to get loose). I also didn't know about the harmonics & putting a twist in the line. I also had a lot of problem with my lines working loose, which I don't have anymore, but I'm not sure I learned the fix in the video.
