@ Mr Alan Lee
I am not sure if you have noticed it, your nipping structure component, is a figure eight in this particular geometry, link/first image https://igkt.net/sm/index.php?topic=6622.msg44062#msg44062.
So, another decent implementation of this configuration, a figure eight based adjustable loop, where its delivering friction, is quite enough to lock/block the tail from slipping. Plus the jam resistance too. I didn’t see that coming! 
Thanks for bringing it in 8).
@ tsik_lestat
Thanks for your honest comment, you are right is a figure eight in this particular geometry. 谢谢 alanleeknot.
I have made an improved version about the Ezelius adjustable knots with better images and with the text edited on this page:

Any suggestions to improve the text are welcome.
Hi Alan,
An interesting noose structure where there is a reversal of the SPart and tail.
Security is achieved when both legs of the ‘eye’ are loaded.
The figure 8 structure is distorted - to provide an illusion of a #206 crossing hitch.

The Ezelius hitch is interesting in its 2 corresponding forms.
In your first set of images - it is presented in noose form.
In the the second set of images, it is presented as a slide and grip progression hitch.
Note the correspondence between the two hitches.
In noose form, the SPart is its own ‘host’ and there is an adjustable eye.
In slide and grip progression form, an independent ‘host’ is required - and there is no adjustable eye.
The loading profile is different in both cases.
In noose form, the hitching component only has 50% load.
In slide and grip progression form, the hitching component has 100% load.
It is noticeable when the leg of the hitch is loaded - since it causes greater distortion in the hitching structure.
…
Overall, a nice effort.
I must say that the Gnat hitch presented by roo some time ago is quite a remarkable hitch in its own right.

On this website, it is presented in noose form.
The Gnat hitch also has a corresponding slide and grip progression form (not shown).
Its a very efficient structure - requiring minimal rope to form the hitch.
It also has considerable grip strength - particularly in slide and grip progression form (because 100% load is directed to the hitching component.
In noose form, only 50% is directed to the hitching component.
I have been investigating if the Gnat hitch could be useful in surgical applications - which I think is worthy of follow up study. Surgeons are looking for new and improved hitches - and the Gnat hitch might be a promising alternative.
I have also been actively promoting the Gnat hitch (in noose form) as a foot stirrup used with a ‘jumar’ (ie mechanical ascender) for rope access technicians.
Hi All, Another knot here, same idea with Canadian adjustable loop, a few quick test, and is not bad at all.
Just so busy, will do more test later.
while you are waiting, let just entertain you with my video.

谢谢 alanleeknot.
Hi All, Here is a variation of the loop above, both of them will jam on heavy load. This improve variation can
handed little more weight then the loop above , but too hard to tie and dress with stiff rope.
谢谢 alanleeknot.
Thanks Alan,
Your creation (at reply #28) jams because the nipping structure isn’t ‘TIB’.
Can you try to create a TIB form?
@ agent_smith, Thanks for the reply.
Your creation (at reply #28) jams because the nipping structure isn't 'TIB'.In this case, the loop jam , have nothing to do with #206 nipping structure (TIB) or (Non TIB). This loop jam is because the collar near standing part is not narrow and is wide.
Can you try to create a TIB form?Will try, but is getting hard and harder, no sure I can find some decent knot any more. 谢谢 alanleeknot.
have nothing to do with #206 nipping structure (TIB)But... the nipping structure ends up not being TIB on account of the outgoing eye leg feeding back through the #206 Crossing hitch (thereby transforming it into something that isn't TIB - an overhand knot with a twist). I think this plays a role in why it ultimately jams.
TO be clear : the size of the eye in your adjustable
eye knot is limited to the length of tail you have,
which in the images looks to be such as to offer
maybe 5" eye or less.
Whereas, were the green-whipped tail instead the SPart,
and indefinite in length, so too would be the eye size.

@ agent_smith,
Never tie any adjustable loop with working end before, new territory for me. Any way I have a loop here, a few quick test
with 1/4" solid braid nylon rope, and it start to slip at around 20% of MBS. With 7/16 Blue water safe line it start to slip around
300 KG. May only good light duty and soft rope. I guess learn from it, and try again. 谢谢 alanleeknot.
