TreeBoy,

A Spanish Bowline also works well for double loops, and is easier to tie, untie, and fine-tune. There's also something called the Double Alpine Butterfly, which can be tied very quickly, but the loops lay a little too close to one another for my tastes. Here's a neat page on various double loops, how to tie them, and their comparative advantages/disadvantages.

Hang on up there!
 
 
 
Because it's better up there!
