After my first use, the webbing likes to bind up on itself, Which is bad for the tree. You have to manually flatten out the straps after each use.
Ive had some issues untying the becket hitch after laying in the hammock. You gotta give it a good yank which makes me a bit nervous bc of the fragile feeling of the webbing. But im sure Dutch has done his testing and im sure they will be fine.
Its a little more work using these but that comes with UL territory
