It doenst have a name.. one of my friend invented it (although I’m sure he’s not the first one to do it). Then he brought that to a place where they have a machine to test the stenght of the knot to be sure it doen’t affect the quality of the knot, and it did not affect the knot in any point. It simply make it easier to untie after a big fall. I don’t see how I could show it to you guys though… I have nothing to record me doing it :S

There are plenty of sources that state that at least some variations on the bowline are safe for climbing. (See, e.g., The Mountaineering Handbook by Connelly.) In fact, there is a variation that is sometimes called a bowline with Yosemite finish that, by my understanding, comes from climbers in Yosemite.
I suggest that backing up the bowline is a good idea (as opposed to the retraced figure eight, where it mostly serves to make sure there’s enough tail), as the bowline is more prone to slip.

technically, you should not have to de the fisherman knot in the end… this should be done only if you have too much rope coming out of the figure eight, which shouldn’t happens once you get used to it.
Also, if you have enouh rope to do that, there is another thing you should do instead. can’t explain it with word but anyway, the rope can be passed another time in the figure 8, to go back toward you. it help you untie the knot, without having chances of it slipping.

NO, only the figure 8 with the fishermen knot should be used to rope your self into the harness, the bowline is not reliable and can slip when force it put to it. Also the rope is elastic, meaning it stretches so the bowline knot can slip out.
