Just got mine today, gonna whip up a couple slings tonight.
Just ordered 30ft of 1/8" silver
I've checked out the straps my buddy gave me. They say "Redback 2500#" on them and can't find any definitive info on them but they appear to be polyester? Closest thing I can find are arbor ties.
Probably right! Friggin trees from Wizard of Oz
My buddy Trevor(gwynn1975 on YouTube) sent me some tree straps which don't look like they'll stretch at all, he said he used em & they worked well. The whoopies I made are of the yellow hardware...
Whatcha mean? I'm new to hammocks but I've made whoopie slings from hollow braided rope recently for practice. It says it has a WLL of 240lbs and I'm 250 so I don't wanna chance it haha
It was comfy but....... I dunno if it was because trees were wet, or the ENO slap straps were too stretchy maybe both..... But by morning my butt was bout an inch from the ground. Time to order some...
Oh wow! Cheapest I've seen! I'm gonna order some Thursday! Gettin 26ft of the orange 7/64.
Hmm.. Sligo?
Where's the best place to buy the Amsteel ropes?
What's your handle on bcusa?
Where bouts? New Castle?
What's your handle over at bcusa?
I got sent over to this shack from bushcraftusa, seems like a super informative place. Never really understood whoopee slings before. However, 10min into being a member and surfing last night here...
