    Pretty much everyone here uses webbing as part of their suspension. It's use for direct tree contact because it helps spread out the force on the bark vs. a thin rope.

    A whoopie sling set up is made up of both a whoopie sling and a length of webbing. The length of webbing is a personal choice and is dependent on the size of trees but a 6 foot whoopie sling with 6 feet of webbing is commonly used.
    So what is the line and strap suspension?

    No Sir….line and strap is a tree strap with the hammock line going to the tree strap to be tied with a knot of your choosing.
    I started that way.

    Quick question about suspensions

    I'll stick with whoopies. Not that difficult.
