Re: Best Velcro

Here's the link to watch a video. And also, a picture to prove that this rope is strong enough. For reference I am 160 pounds.
I walked into my local Home Depot and asked to see the rope section and I found this right away. If you are having trouble finding it here's another buy link. If that doesn't work it's called solid braid polypropylene rope.Make sure that you don't get the twisted kind because I can't verify that it works. I'm pretty sure that it DOES NOT work for that matter.

Edit: In the picture I was struggling because I don't have great upper body strength
