VIDEO: Tarp to tree options

Yep. Well done. I use the prusik knot/figure 9 setup on my tarp rig. I like that it is fully adjustable yet simple. I have not tried the "v" setup, but like how you illustrated it. I will try that next time I'm out.

I've never seen the trail stick technique. I'll have to try it. I have a 2in. piece of plastic coat hanger with a hole drilled in it on the line that I "butterfly" the loop around that works pretty good. This is for the end that you attatch first on a continuous line.

Thanks CK, I've done the "V" thing with knot bones and fig.9 on a continuous RL but haven't actually hung with the method I demo'd but will give it a try next time out. Its nice to have the suspension not rub on the tarp lines.

Glad I could help. I use Zing-it 1.75mm for pretty much everything.

Nice, I like the butterfly, pretty cool.
