Whoopies are another form of hammock suspension!
You can check out either Prof. Grizz's vid's

Or Shug's Vid's

Both have a great video list set-up for pretty much all your Hammocking need's!!!Get some popcorn, sit back, relax and watch!
After trying slap straps, hennessy knot, cinch buckes, rings, and currently using whoopies... I'd have to say the whoopies win hands down. Save yourself some time and money and order a pair of whoopies.
Thanks! Can't wait til I get my amsteel to try it out. I'm totally stoked. Thanks shug!
Can't we all just 'Hang' along?
and if you're gonna make whoopies... I went by my local JoAnn Fabrics and in the notions dept. I looked for a tool that would turn tiny straps. Found a tool called "Loop Turner", it's about 12" long with a hook at one end. I think it must have been on sale the day I bought it, just $2. Works perfectly for pushing & pulling the amsteel end through the middle of the rope. You just have to be careful you don't jab it outside the rope when you're wanting to push it through the middle.
Oh, and one more thing... once you learn how to make whoopies, you start looking around to find more places you can use them just so you can make more whoopies

That was awesome! I was expecting it to be much harder. I can't wait to start making whoopie!
LOL!
When my wife asked me what I was watching on the computer I said, "I'm watching this guy make whoopie."
She was like, "Huh?"
It was hilarious.
