    I too was blessed with a set at the Rogers hang, there are "NO" sharp edges on these (or really anything that he makes) that would damage lines!
    I spent Friday night up at Three Forks in a bad thunderstorm and they worked great. The suspension is different from what I use so that was the part that took me some time to get use to setting up.

    SGT---in your video, when you hung the hammock again after pulling it out of the hammock+UQ stuff sack, there was something that snagged on the ridgeline, pulled it down a bit on the right hand side (from the viewer's POV). Know what was going on there?

    Add a couple of these hooks to the list of Dutchware I need. Not sure how just yet, but that weight+strength combination is superb. Thanks for the heads up.

    I set up my hammock exactly like Sgt Rock demonstrated in the video but with Dutch binders instead of the Dutch whoopies hooks. So now I will have to replace the D. Binders with the D. Whoopie hooks. This means that Dutch has out-Dutched himself!!!

    He noted that.... He invented hardware to fix an issue, then invented something to replace the hardware. ha! I believe that, as the hammock world IS growing, the more options folks have the better. He's simply giving variety to the masses.

    His next invention is a new, easy open cap for bottles. Stay tuned for the Dutch Cola, Dutch Beer, and Dutch Water!

    Leave Dutch alone.

    We all need our ti fix, and he supplies the good stuff.

    Just when I think suspension can't get better Dutch does it again! I see more new gear in my future.
