A quick question guys...I purchased a HH just a few days ago (thanks Spaceweasel!) and I want to replace the ropes with Whoopie Slings. Easy enough, but I am wondering about the next part; do I use the Dutch Buckle setup or the Whoopie Hooks setup?

I am 6'1" and weigh about 280. I've read that the Hooks will comfortably hold my weight, but I'm not sure that I like the setup. I do like the Buckle setup, but I cannot find any info about how much weight that setup supports.

Further, if I do go with the Buckle setup, don't I have to use a Dutch Clip? The Ti version supports 300#'s and though I'm not exactly there, I really don't want to take that chance. I am a side sleeper that turns over a number of times in the night.

So, now I'm back to the Hooks. I wouldn't need a Clip for the tree huggers with that setup would I?

And ultimately, if I did, where do I go then?



Wow. Thanks for reading guys. Any help is truly appreciated.
