    I need to order the rings webbing and carabiniers and "just do it" I guess.

    I'll switch if it does away with needing trees.

    I was gonna use it but the container is so darn heavy and you can't use a regular silnylon stuff sack.

    I do try to dish it out on an equal-opportunity basis

    Btw...anybody know what happened to the poll content? It seems the ring buckles have disappeared from the choices list. I'm still convinced the CC buckles will win in the long run, but is this really fair?

    I'm not convinced that they will win, but I am CERTAIN that they SHOULD.

    I don't know what happened. I noticed a few days ago that all the choices are in italics except the ENO slap straps for me...usually the only italics is the one I voted for. The poll close date was changed, too...dunno how it happened, but I changed it to 2017 this time (4000 days after it was created). Maybe troll knows something.
