Woooooooo! My 1st hammock is here! I purchased Dutchware 11' 1.6 Hexon. I'm a total nube so I have to ask a few q's:
I ordered the structural ridgeline thats 115' from Dutch. According to what I've read it should be about 109.5 for the 11' hammock. Is this right? Whats the standard method for shortening the RL? At first I thought it was like a whoopie sling that I could adjust but its not. Do I cut it? tie a knot in it?
I ordered the tree huggers and whoopie slings. I passed the tree hugger through the loop on the end and cinched it down on the tree. Then I took the loop end of the whoopie and passed it through the loop on the hugger. Is this the proper way to connect them?
I also ordered the Knotty Mod. I'm guessing you tighten the cord lock opposite the side your feet are on to take up the extra material right?
Another tips for a total nube greatly appreciated!
