Both are considerably lighter, probably less than half the weight. TeeDee has our whoopie sling system down to 4.60 oz now and could easily shave that down to 4.5 or 4.4 oz when he's confident enough to start cutting excess rope. If we use rope instead of webbing for the tree huggers, then we can get that down to about 4 oz. Could get under 4 oz if we didn't like really long huggers.
yes and in my experience easier to adjust than the ring buckle system.
easier and no half-hitch needed.
Either works great.
Another thing about rope over webbing - bulk. Webbing is very bulky compared to rope.
