This is a video for Blender demonstrating how to select every other edge loop in a dense mesh. I had to do this recently for some high poly hoses that I wanted to reduce to a lower poly count, so I thought I would share the process. Hopefully this will be helpful for someone else at some point.
Note: This tutorial was originally created for Blender versions prior to 4.0. For anyone using Blender 4.0 and above: Step 2 has now changed. Hold down Ctrl and Alt and click on an Edge that you want to Keep. Then follow the rest of the steps shown in the video.
