We're changing the connections and lines for Tensa4. This explains original and newer systems.

so are you all getting rid of the long grey ridgeline? I just got a stand about 2 or 3 weeks ago and I've never used UCR before so I'm still kinda struggling on the line tight when under a load. is there a way to buy this new lines?

If you no longer need or want the ucr ridgeline, you could dismantle the ucr where they meet in the middle and use the separated pieces as a tether line in addition to holding the pole end pieces together. That way you could do away with the dedicated tether line.

Simple and elegant solution to hold the poles together. I still prefer the UCR ridgeline to hold on the V for easy hammock mount/dismount. Though I don't mind getting the new dongle.

Btw, have you tried soft-shackle and will it hold the stand and load the same? A little Lash-it lark's headed to the pin and shackle's loop to thread it through the holes?

I presume the same connections will be used for joining the base poles. Are you revising the base UCR as well?

Yes, same top and bottom. I think a lot of people whose hammocks have ridgelines will decline to use a stand ridgeline, as now the poles can be connected independently of the lines.

Hope you’ve figured out the UCRs. If not, or just prefer webbing and carabiners, we’ve got both v1 and v2 kits on the parts section of our store: https://www.tensaoutdoor.com/product/parts-a-la-carte/. Webbing will be the default going forward. So far we’ve discovered that most people prefer the opposite of whichever one we bundle, but we’re resisting forcing a choice at time of purchase: makes life more complicated.
