Webbing is simpler and more robust. With whoopies there is need for tree savers and some method to connect those to the whoopies. There is many options, some better some worse - and everyone of us have got our own favorite.
And when one needs tree savers the next question is how long should they be, it depends and there is no way to know for sure beforehand.
With webbing suspension there no need for extra hassle. It is what it is - and It just works.
Whoopies also limit little the shortest possible hang distance.
And whoopies are not faster - goal is to go fast and light, not only light.
So, no Whoopies for suspension please. They are bit lighter but open too many new worm cans when thinking of the manufacturing of the Alpine Hammock. Nobody will be satisfied when there are too many options
('connecting the whoopies to tree savers -options'
multiplied with 'tree saver length -options'
equals 'exponential growth of unhappy wannabee customers whining that this was the wrong manufacturing decision, it should have been the B-, C-, D- or even the G-option')
But maybe one whoopie for adjustable ridge line.
