cross the laces (as usual - as you learned it)
then make a knot (yes, this is the overhand knot)
finally go through one more time to increase friction (that is called the double overhand knot)
now, you can pull it tight, and it will stay tight
second verse, same as the first... :=D
cross, knot and go through one more time
... pull it tight
continue to the top
there it is, the individually tightened boot
each connection can have its own individual tightness and it will stay that way because of the high friction in the double overhand knot
unlacing is as quick as ever
demo: extremely loose connection
tight, tight
loose!!!
tight
that's all folks!
