Sarge, why are you using ucr's instead of whoppies? Don't you think they are finicky? My dyna whoppies made with 17 foot of dynaglide 2.2 each only weigh like .4oz anyway. Thoughts?
A UCR with the dead end doubled back to the hammock (picture both end of the UCR attached to the hammock, thus forming a *******ized whoopie sling) woulld reduce the strain on the week point in the system by 50%. Not that I loop mine back though...

Sorry about the poor quality pics. It was low light in the back yard last night and all I had at the time was my phone... Maybe I'll edit the post later if I can swipe my wife's digital.

Its a weird feeling crawling into your hammock hanging from DG for the first time....
I had an air mattress under me the first time.
Just playing with things. I got a bunch of that stuff and made me some 4' whoopies instead of cutting the professionally built ones from opie. Once I mastered that I decided to try making some UCRs. And yes, they are finicky. Most likely I will convert my "normal" hammock back to whoopies. I'm using whoopies on my SUL Nano 7.
One thing is I wish they were called something besides whoopies. Sounds so girly when I try to explain them to non-hammockers.
you could call em man slings
