Plus, it is totally named after me \m/
    I see your point. If I had a knot named after me I'd use it exclusively =)

    It's a cool knot. I'm going to hang with it this afternoon, get used to it. Always a good idea to have multiple options in your arsenal. Thanks!

    I was just out in the back yard playing around and with a strap to continuous loop system I was having good luck with the Highwayman's Hitch, easy to tie, quick release and didn't slip. I didn't try it with dynaglide to the continuous loop on the hammock, just the strap to the continuous loop. If I can find my test piece of dynaglide I'll give it a shot and report back.
    Good luck,
