What do you use for ridgeline?

[RedBadger]

Hey Guys,

What type of material do you use for your ridgeline? Anything in particular that you use to adjust the length?

Any and all information would be great!

Thanks all!

I use zing-it for my tarp ridge line. Rather than clutter up your thread, see the thread below for the particulars on my set up.

Zing-It 1.75 mm works great for ridgelines, whether adjustable or fixed - and 1.75 mm Zing-It works great with Dutch bling like tarp Flyz, Stingerz, and Dutch hooks!

11mm PMI E-Z Bend if you like overkill

That was not sarcasm. Seriously.

I have been using dynaglide for my hammock RL, it is way overkill but I had it on hand, it's easy to splice and I don't have to worry about failures.

I make UCR's and they are very adjustable.

I'll echo the Zing It crowd.

I use 1.9mm tech line from DIY GEAR SUPPLY. It's a little cheaper sometimes then zing it and splices just as well

My daily hammock I use Amsteel. Not because I need it but it's easier on my hand to get up every morning. My backpacking hammocks use Zing It.
