    eno Whoopies

    Has anybody replaced their eno cord (that thick rope from fabric to biner) with Whoopies? I’m thinking of doing it but would like to see how it has worked for others first. I did replace the heavy biner that came with it to a light weight climbing biner.

    many options with any channel end hammock like your ENO.
    whoopies will do just fine, and give you lots of adjustment options.

    have fun with the conversion

    No worries. Pretty common and frequently recommended modification.

    I did it a while back. And have loved the difference. You can get the perfect angle and tension. Not to mention if weighs a lot less.

    I was so blessed to be able to switch out the webbing about a week ago. They are pretty awesome! As soon as I get some tree hugger I will take the it to the woods. I see a diy project coming!

    You can get a couple 6' pieces of webbing from walmart for like 1.99 a piece. They're in the camping section and have hardware on them, take them off and tie a loop on one end. If you have a sewing machine, sew one in. They haven't stretched on me so I assume they're polyester and I've had to use them in a pinch when I lost one my HG tree huggers. Worked nicely and in fact also used the same thing at the Ohio Winter Hang a few days ago. You can also use the toggles from a tent repair kit for like 2.99 and you get some seem sealer too! Hope this helps
