    Amsteel whoopie. Although the next one will be an Amsteel ucr. I'm liking the ucr because it uses less line.

    I use a 1.75 zing-it adjustable ridgeline on my hammock.

    Oh wait... hammock RL? I have some 1.75 zing-it adjustables, one 2.2 zing-it adjustable, but most recently been making them from dynaglide. For no other reason than that I loathe splicing zing-it. Dynaglide is sooo much less tedious. The strands are just a bit too loose on zing-it for splicing to be fun. So, it's "floppy" compared to dynaglide, where the strands are woven tighter.

    Sorry. Started a tangent there that was about to keep going.

    Summary: I love zing-it. I hate to splice it.

    7/64 amsteel. I used what was left from my tarp ridgeline to practice making fixed loops.

    Thank you for answering my question before I asked it. The Zing-it vs Lash-it thing.
