dropper loop question

[Chumslick]

Stick with the kiwi,does not reduce line strength as much as standard dropper loop.

I twist 6 times for an even amount of twists on either side and this works out great for me!

+1 for the kiwi loop knot, far stronger than the standard dropper loop.

I've never seen a video, but this sequence is not hard to follow. FWIW, I have found the extra "optional" plait to be necessary.
