I've got a static 10mm rope (5m long) and am planning on partial or full (if partial fails). It's widely confirmed on this site that the slipknot is the best to use around neck (will probs use it to anchor to a tree as well, unless anyone can recommend a better knot, taking into account that the branch is too high to reach without aid, so a I could throw the rope over the tree, tie a slip knot then pull to tighten it).
Anyway the main question, how do you release the slipknot? How do people test the partial method and then release the slipknot? I understand it's a self tightening knot with pressure, but is there an easy way of releasing the knot when it's around your neck? All I can gather so far is that the fast release means pulling so the loop where your neck would be becomes smaller then pops through the knot itself, but if my neck is in the loop (noose) then that won't happen as my neck is in the way lol.
Basically I'm confused as to how people try partial or get the noose off in a panic?
