Default Spanish Bowline via the Hemp Pretzel

There's a new tying technique named the hemp pretzel. Though it ties over 25 common knots, I like how it allows for a Spanish bowline to be made quickly in mid-air.

Here's the video:

I understand that reading about knots is limited on the entertainment scale. However, if someone has an interest, I have an article on the using the hemp pretzel to make the Spanish bowline.

I use it on foot loops SRT RADS.

Here's the write-up. It may help in terms of studying it.
