Ordered a set of slings to put on my Hennessy Explorer. I got a red one for the "head" and green for the "foot". I had no trouble at all installing them thanks to the excellent instructional videos Opie has made. I have been using snake skins in the past. One skin almost covers the entire hammock with the stock suspension off.
For the gram counters out there, by my scale two whoopie slings weigh 1.5 oz whereas the stock suspension ropes for the HH came in at 6 oz, some may say 4.5 oz big whoop (pun intended) but I say that is a 75% reduction in the weight of suspension!
Alas a lack of decent trees in my backyard prevent a decent test, I see a hike on the Nat Greene Trail and a nap in my future for tomorrow!
