yes, I know... I used to do that too. The knot you mention is also known as Burkina weave. Most often used on dundun drums as well. But with well-tensioned verticals, there is no need for this method, because each weave gives a lot of tension. Maybe even too much. I prefer to use a classic (Mali) weave and make a whole circle around the drum. That way it offers a more even tension to the skin. The Burkina version is also more useful for drums with many knots on the ring and where there is a small gap between the verticals. In this case, the Mali weave is not effective enough. So, everything depends on the previous tension of the drum and vertical ropes 😉
Thanks is for the vid Urosh. I’ll share this with my students.
I’ve been doing it for my students but I’ve fractured my ankle so they’re going to have to DIY 😂
I did it like U and Issiaka said: firts on 3, second on 2 .
it gives more tension.
