A zeppelin loop, also called a Rosendahl loop, is a secure, jam resistant loop knot based on the zeppelin bend. It is one of the few loops suitable for bungee.

There are two possible variants, depending on how the end enters and exits the loop knot:

• The first type where
  • The end enters the loop knot from the opposite side compared to the main part.
  • It then seems to exit as a continuation of the loop beginning.
  • The main part and the end are on the same plane as the loop.
• The second type where
  • The end enters the loop knot perpendicular to the main part.
  • It then seems to exit as a continuation of it.
  • The main part and the end are perpendicular to the loop plane.

The second variant of the Zeppelin loop, where the end enters the loop knot perpendicular to the main part.
