Shorten your line...knot free

I just put up this article on how to tie your line shorter without making a knot. I thought some of you wakeboarders might find this useful.

Here's the link:

Good link. That's pretty much what I do, but it's hard to explain in text.

I tried that knot last night and it slipped. Anyone else try it. Maybe kneeboarding you don't pull on the rope as hard.

What kind of rope do you have? You'd be the first to make it slip.
