Wrap it around any ole stick lying around to save your hands.

True, but when I'm dealing with sub 2mm line, I've cut sticks in half with 8 days of food (~15lbs). The Marlin Spike Hitch works well, but I've switched to a bear can so I can try for the JMT.

I'm camping with you. Cool colored lines & there has got to be a steak or two in that 15lbs of food.

I have been holding out on buying this line (saw it on Stick's blog as well), I look forward to your review. So far I have been pretty satisfied with my LiteTrail G line.

What is your intend method of adjustment on your tarp with this line? Prussic? sliding hitch knot of some sort?

I too am looking forward to my review. Apparently, I was the first one to order off the new webstore. Cool.

I will be using a modified tarp tensioner set up, both the loop of bungee and the guyline are larksheaded to each other for quick removal/trade off to a prussik.

I'll do a video review and then introduce my new way of suspending my hammock... if my new product is back from the CNC lathe by then.

How much was shipping?

The price includes shipping.

I just received confirmation from the seller, 1.1mm is the finished diameter!

Nice, good score FIMB! May need to get some of that for rigging the cuben tarp! I would imagine that the 1.5mm would be better for the ridgeline tieouts and the 1.1 mm for the guylines?

Cheers
