    Attaching Hennessy Hammock from the ends

    Hey,
    I'm thinking of swapping out my hammock suspension (spyderline & trucker hitch) to whoopie slings this season. Looks much easier to setup and adjust.

    The only issue I have is hanging on my stand. Whoopies would be too long for that purpose. Is there a way with the HH to have a loop I can clip into with a biner?

    Sure is. Use a continuous loop about 16" long when pulled tight end to end as if it had a load on it. Have a climbing rated ring made onto the loop. A little more than half of that lenght will be used up attaching it to the hammock. You then can use the ring to connect to whatever else you need to.

    Just hook the whoopies to the continuous loop, then you have the best of both.
