Hi X1,
This seems to be a good and simple "back-handed" hitch, is a "quick-releasing" hitch, but is not an "exploding" hitch: my friends are not entirely convinced about the use of this knot:I have tried to tell them :"Guys, if we try to enter the country without going to cackling at full gallop,screaming out loud" YPPYHAYHEE! ",and shooting bullets in the air, then perhaps the sheriff is not alarmed so quickly, and then maybe we could run a hitch more reliable than those that we usually use to tie up our horses! ",but they did not give me a lot of listening;we must understand them:they are guys with a spontaneous character, they were brought up this way, and I do not feel to blame them for this!
Bye!(and thanks for this hitch: I personally like very much!)
