    trying to find post

    There was a post with pics (maybe even a vid) of a prusik attached to a RL and then lines attached to the zippers to assist closing the hammock.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Dang, man! Good find, Sandpiper. I remembered seeing it, but had absolutely no clue where.

    That IS cool! At 0:14, it looks like a single Prusik knot of some sort (???) It needs to be fairly loose on the ridgeline so it can slide, but with SOME grip so it won't slide back on it own, right? What knot would you use? (Can you tell I'm all over this idea? I'm doing it for sure!)
