    Diamond Ring Tarp Suspension

    Just got bored with my old tarp suspension so I'm going this route for a while. You could really use any kind of knot to make a small loop it really is just there to keep the line from slipping off the ends, I just happen to like the diamond knot.

    Cool system, does the UCR larks head get so tight it's hard to release on the diamond knot?

    So far that has not been my experience. This isn't under the sort of tension that the hammock suspension is under, it gets tight on it but not crazy tight. Also, the tension is released from the ucr before I disconnect it from the diamond knot and typically it pops off quite easily.
    Good luck,

    Check again, I had to repost the video because of a spelling error in the title, it should be squared away now.

    Thanks PG, you're pretty handy yourself in the knot and cordage department.
