Whoopie inspired adjustable tarp lines
Nice video. I did something similar. What I did different was on the constrictor end where the burry is I put a prussik and made it into more of a UCR. Reason I did was worried about the line slipping and I saw the design here on HF in a for sale thread and looked like a great way to go.
Life has no remote. Get up and change it yourself!
Yep, that's a UCR (utility constrictor rope). As Squirrel bait said, leave the tail on the non-constricting end of the constrictor long enough to tie a prusik, taut line, etc. to add constriction and prevent a bump from releasing the whole thing.
Here's a tutorial showing the added safety knot...https://www.hammockforums.net/forum/...To-Make-an-UCR
I've found putting line loc 3's on the tarp guy outs to be the best way to adjust guyline length. Works the same way, but you can basically adjust to zero length if needed.
Can't use unsheathed dyneema cord, however.
Cool, thanks for the tips. I have never seen it before, they work a treat.
