The '''Figure-of-eight follow through loop''' is a type of [[knot]].


'''Comments:''' The [[double bowline]] accomplishes the same task, can be tied faster, and does not jam. However, the double bowline has closely related knots that can [[capsize]], so many climbers prefer the figure-of-eight as it is less likely to be mistied. <BR>
