A peek at webbing suspension with cinch buckles and de-sender rings. And without. Carabiner and webbing hook up to tree. Easy Peasy.

Hammock Hangin' How-To PART 3
Whooooo Buddy)))) All Secure in Sector Seven
Awesome series, Shug! You're doing a great job summarizing everything very succinctly!
That last bit, where you talk about the webbing and show the hardware-less way, that's used in the arborist industry a lot to hold pulleys and stuff onto the tree. With rope, you never need more than 4 "tucks" at the end to hold extremely secure.
All secure,

It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

I love the series Shug! The effort you put into making fun and informative videos does not go unappreciated.
Hell if it wasn't for your videos I would have never gotten into the world of hammocks in the first place!
Some of my freight hopping adventures on film over at my YouTube Channel... Oh and there is other stuff there as well!
Shug,
Good stuff brother!! I have a bunch of friends that I canoe with every Memorial Day for 5-6 days. This year will be our 33rd. annual trip. We went to college together. They are intrigued with my hanging while they go to ground. I link your videos to them and now they are even more intrigued. One went to Nicaraugua for some medical mission work this winter and spent three weeks hanging. Everyone there sleeps in a hammock. I think he is convinced.
This year we will be paddling the Buffalo River and no doubt some "Shug talk" will be shared around the campfire. Thanks for the primer.
