You really should at least insist on dynaglide!!:lol: I saw someone 340 hanging on dynaglide whoopies and was amazed.:shades:

Jim, on a recent outing, I had 4 teenaged Boy Scouts jump in my WB Traveller simultaneously. Total weight was over 400#, and they were SWINGING my hammock. :scared:
My Dutch Buckles never blinked.
Luckily, neither did my DIY tree straps or DIY whoopie slings. :shades:
Root cause was just using the scouts to test it before he got in:D
I'm not fat, I'm gravity challenged !
My big plans for the weekend were whittled down to a short Sunday afternoon in the piney woods (by a crisis at work) so I didn't get to do a dayhike, didn't get to fiddle with a one-tree set up, didn't get to play with my modified MBD Choke Hazard. Sigh.
But I did switch my CJH NX-250 from straps & buckles to Dutch Buckles and HG Whoopies. No worries! Buckles held just fine, no groaning or twanging noises. No aluminum screaming.
Of course, now I am worried about the bury length of the HG Whoopies. But that is another story. I will test the holding power of wet Whoopies when I have a chance.
