L’encordement se fait au moyen de divers nœuds dont les plus courants sont le nœud en huit et le nœud de bouline, ou nœud de chaise, le premier étant assez difficile à défaire en cas de choc. [...] Avec le baudrier, l’arrêt de la manœuvre est simple : après le dernier anneau de buste, on fait un nœud sur la corde que l’on passe dans un mousqueton fixé à l’encordement initial. 2, record 2, French, - encordement
