It is for most wings easier to fit it over the maillon or soft link though. For details on this loop, see also [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pile_hitch|Wikipedia]].</alert> ==== Girth Hitch Plus Plus ==== <alert dark>{{ :loops:girth-hitch-plus-plus.png?200|}} This knot is done similar like the Girth Hitch plus, only that both sides are looped another time around the maillon or soft link.</alert> ==== Pile Hitch Plus ==== <alert dark>{{ :loops:pile-hitch-plus.png?200|}} The length change for the Double Pile Hitch is very similar to the Girth Hitch Plus Plus. It is easier to fit on the maillons or soft links though.</alert> ==== Double Pile Hitch ==== <alert dark>{{ :loops:double-pile-hitch.png?200|}} To see how it's done, also compared to the Pile Hitch see [[https://knots.neocities.org/pilehitch]].</alert>
