JRB strap/tri glide set vs. homemade

**downes911** · 05-25-2009, 23:03

I am new to hanging, planning thru hike AT next year and am gearing up!! Like the idea of converting HH to straps, but wondered if anyone has input on JRB strap and tri glide set, is it worth it approx. $20 or should I just get materials and put together my own strap/ring set.
thanks for any expert advice.

im no expert, but you will spend about $20 no mater what you do. i use webbing with rings just because you can set up with mittens on. other options i had trouble with freezing.
