    Excellent cordage - and I need to order more. I don't think you will be able to create a Whoopie from it. http://lawsonequipment.com/Reflectiv...-32-p1024.html

    I made my adjustable ridge line from dynaglide. I bought this first:

    But in my hennesy hammock the whoopie end gets pulled down into the gathered end of the hammock and locks up, so its VERY hard to adjust and get right. I wound up pulling the adjustable loop out of it. I then made an 18" "dog bone" out of some of the cord, just length of cord with a fixed loop on both ends. One end went in the gathered end of the hammock, the other inside the hammock right above my feet. Then I made an adjustable loop to go through the free end of the dog bone. The whoopie part is now easy to adjust without freezing up inside the end of the hammock suspension.

    I found the dynaglide VERY easy to work with. I use a straightened out bobby pin as a tool. The blunted end slides really easily through the cores of both amsteel and dynaglide.
