Just began hammock camping, and we use straps and cinch buckle suspensions.
Just for fun, I have gone back and watched a few videos about whoopie slings, including Shug's and Papa Smurf's. I would have thought the reason people switched to using them is because it is easier, but it looks like a lot more work than just cinch buckles. I don't see how the weight could be less since you still have to have straps. Are you saving a few ounces having shorter straps and not having the weight of the cinch buckles, or is there more to it than that?
