The tumble hitch (a.k.a. a better Highwayman's hitch, Bank Robbers Knot, Getaway hitch or Quick-release knot) is a quick-release draw loop knot used for temporarily securing a rope that will need to be released easily and cleanly. The hitch can be untied with a tug of the working end. The line does not need to be pulled from around the object. The Notable Knot Index recommends the tumble hitch as a more stable hitch than Highwayman's hitch. It's a similar hitch, but less prone to capsizing because the main part remains passive and the locking is done by two successive bights of the working part (no end needed) wrapping each time around both the standing part and the post/pole before a bight of it being pushed into the previous bight thus locking it. Usually two locking turns (as in the pictures here and in the picture at the linked page above) suffice for a knot strong enough for most purposes but more may be added as needed. The way the end wraps the standing part can also vary to offer higher levels of strength: * No wrapping of the standing part, wrapping only around the post/pole/beam as in the picture at the linked page above (least hold) * Crossing over the standing part, then wrapping around the post/pole/beam as in the pictures (better hold) * wrapping the standing part half a turn, then wrapping around the post/pole/beam (even better hold) * wrapping the standing part a full turn, then wrapping around the post/pole/beam (even better hold than the previous one) * etc.. ==Tying== File:GüvenliceEskiyaBagi1.JPG|Tumble hitch 1: Bight over beam File:GüvenliceEskiyaBagi2.JPG|Tumble hitch 2: Working part over standing part, around beam, through bight1 File:GüvenliceEskiyaBagi3.JPG|Tumble hitch 3: Working part over standing part, around beam, through bight2 File:GüvenliceEskiyaBagi4.JPG|Tumble hitch 4: Tigthened 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tumble hitch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
