This finishing technique combines the classic simple bindoff with a wrap and a twist. Intuitively it probably seems like that should make little difference, I know, but it ends up being just about the most elastic bindoff you can get worked on 2 needles. Originally published in knitty.com in fall 2009, "JSSBO" has since been widely adopted in the knitting community. All instructions and details are in the attached pdf.
