    Dutch has 1.75 black Dyneema that's pretty much like Zing It or Lash It, it's not like Dynaglide. (they're all made from Dyneema fibers)

    I'd go with Dynaglide or 2.2 Zing It. FWIT, WB uses 7/64 Amsteel. Not ultra-light and some might call it overkill, but that's how WBBBs come.

    I used 7/32" Amsteel on my Walmart hammock and it works great.

    We use 1.75mm zingit built into UCR for our ridgelines. While the adjustment doesn't need to be done multiple times it does help finetune it to the person. Uses just over 10' of line as I recall.

    I use a whoopie sling made from Zing-it for my structural ridgeline. I make it so it has a little adjustability from about 80% of hammock length out to about 90%. Not much, but allows a little custom fit for a narrow hang or a long one. Also doesn't leave a long tail hanging in the way or have the long loop for most of the ridgeline. works fine so far.

    Yes, Zing-It(or Lash-It) make great SRL's. Most use 1 of 3 methods.

    1. Fixed eyes on both ends. Need to know your best length since it's permanent.
    2. Whoopie Sling. Adjustable SRL with a fixed eye on one side and adjustable loop on the other side.
    3. UCR. Adjustable SRL with 2 fixed eyes and constrictor in the middle. Uses less line than a Whoopie Sling.

    You can always change your SRL if you don't like it so it's not too much of hassle. Just more fun and fiddle time.
    Enjoy and have fun with your family, before they have fun without you
