Re: Half Hitch before Bowline

i loosely go with these theories; but i also think a Running Bowline's teepee can be flattened out to leverage force high enough to give less remaining tensile strength (but better/tighter grip for Running Bowline in trade) than Clove or preceding Half Hitches. A Bowline itself is different; then it's SheetBend is bending the Standing Part worser than all the rest on a decent size load/mount.
Also; IMLHO, i think that the angle of pull on these things is best where the lacing's forces are in line with itself by meeting it's host/load at a right angle. 37k Flash Animation
