    Thumbs up Dyneema IronWire Whoopies

    http://lawsonequipment.com/All-Produ...Wire-p514.html

    Anyone else ever made Whoopies out of Dyneema IronWire? It's rated to 1,000 lbs. I've been hanging from it for about 3 months now without any problems at all.

    The whoopies bind slightly after a load is applied, but so do regular 7/64th whoopies. Pretty cool stuff.

    That appears to be Dynaglide, simply sold under another name. It is discussed widely here.
