I think you're looking for March 2011, Page 30. You might also be interested in Tony Way's letter in May 2011 about the Water Knot shown in the article.
This how-to article can be found on the SSA web site (if you are an
SSA member) in the Soaring Magazine archive.

This article was written by the official "rope-dude" at our club. I
did re-read the comments about the Water Knot in the May 2011 issue
(page 7). Our experience is having had no issues with these coming
apart using the water knot over the multiple years they have been in
use. The difference *MAY* be that we use the water knot on wider 1"
flat nylon "tubular" webbing rather than the 9/16" used in the test
article mentioned. I also believe that Greg read that testing review
and did lengthen the loose ends as mentioned.
