    A figure-of-eight loop tied using the follow-through method. A figure-eight loop is created by doubling the rope into a bight, then tying the standard figure-eight knot.. In climbing, this knot is used to save time when repeatedly attaching the rope to climbing harnesses, using locking carabiners, such as when a group of people are climbing on the same top-rope.

    The instructions on how to create a slippery eight loop is as follows: Begin by creating a figure eight knot with one end long enough to be looped through it again; Make sure that the figure eight loop is not tight, but rather quite loose with obvious gaps; Bring the long, working end to the top of the knot

  4. Figure-eight knot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figure-eight_knot

    The figure-eight knot or figure-of-eight knot is a type of stopper knot. It is very important in both sailing and rock climbing as a method of stopping ropes from running out of retaining devices. Like the overhand knot , which will jam under strain, often requiring the rope to be cut, the figure-eight will also jam, but is usually more easily ...

    Stevedore knot before tightening. The knot is formed by following the steps to make a figure-of-eight knot, but the working end makes an additional wrap around the standing part before passing back through the initial loop in the same direction it would have for a figure-of-eight knot (which yields a more secure & stable knot than were it to be a half-wrap less (a "Fig.9")).

  8. Directional figure eight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directional_figure_eight

    The directional figure eight (a.k.a. inline figure-eight loop) is a loop knot. It is a knot that can be made on the bight. The loop must only be loaded in the correct direction or the knot may fail. It is useful on a hauling line to create loops that can be used as handholds.

  9. Double figure-eight loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_figure-eight_loop

    A double figure-eight loop, (also known as a bunny ears, or a dog eared loop) is a type of knot that forms two parallel loops, and resembles the figure-eight loop. [1]It is frequently used in climbing and caving as an easily untie-able knot that is capable of being attached to two bolts and equalised.
