I've never been able to find a good one.
I want to tie a rope between two trees and keep it as tight as possible.
On one end I can do a syberian hitch, or a tie timber hitch, no problem.
On the other end I want to keep it tight. I could do a taught line hitch, but I've experienced that to slide when you apply weight to the middle of the line
I've seen this knot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWhQfrepMFE and tried it, but when pulling on the line, it collapses slightly so the line isn't as tight anymore.
There must be a better one where you can really tighten the line?
