    How to apply the continuous loops

    Im transitioning my hammocks to continuous loops, but I am not entirely sure how best to put the continuous loop on the hammocks. Both have end channels (ENO DN & Dutch Argon 11'). I've watched Xtrekker's vids on how he puts the suspension on a gathered end hammock using zip ties and larks head (my favorite idea). Suggestions and input?

    At this time I follow what ENO does and run the loop through the channel twice. I kind of like a Larks head behind the gather that's created so I might to that too. Finally, if I'm feeling strange (and the loop is a big long), I'll run the rest of the loop from behind the gather through the center of the gather so it sort of comes out in the middle of the gather instead of over the top or on the bottom.

    larks head it through the end channel. really not that different than the way the stock rope is attached on an ENO DN.
