Hi, new here but been at the other forum for a while.....

Anyway, I am enthralled by whoopee slings and possibilities,
But because I'm cheap, I want to make them from locally available 3/8 inch yellow hollow braid poly rope.

On the package it says working load is 200 lbs or so.
But the specs on line gives 2880 lbs as tensile strength.

see here:

I'm a big guy and with a 30° hang with my weight 200 lbs of tension is possible.

Am I in danger of catastrophic headfirst midnight dismount (CMHD)?
