    Whoopie Slippage Prevention

    Another method for preventing the whoopie sling from slipping off the toggle/MSH.

    This involves having the deadeye end of the whoopie sling at the tree girth hitched behind the toggle/MSH. The adjustment then happens at the hammock end.

    Good idea Toe! That'd be handy in the rain so you wouldn't have to go outside to adjust if you had the need. X, I have gone back to descender rings and straps on my Lite Owl and have been diggin it. You have the option to get in between a shorter span of trees as well.
