Got my HH Hyperlight and set it up for a short second this weekend. I ran the treehugger through itself, and then hooked my line through the open end and tied it in what I can only describe as two 1/2 hitches about 3 inches apart with a slippery half hitch at the third knot.
Now two things: the spectra cord is very stiff and slippery and slipped twice, a problem I havent had in the past with other set ups, the other is that one of the tree straps already is starting to split(i am sure due to me not using it correctly).
So what do you do?
I was thinking of upgrading with 5-6' of7/64 amsteel and then attatching tri-rings from a blackbird set up. Then using just 36" of webbing to adjust the ends. Kind of like a webbing/biner set up but with more rope then webbing.
Or do you think i should jsut go with a different rope like amsteel and stick with the straps?
And has anyone found a way to set the huggers up by running one end through the other without causing damage?
Thank you everyone...
