    Tangled Suspension

    I need some help with my UQ suspension. I have either tangled it or have the wrong parts running through the carabiners.

    Foot end:



    [

    Head end:





    I didn't tie the knots you see. And I notice that there are knots on both strands of the foot-end suspension but not the head-end (picture 4).
    I can't find a picture of what is supposed to look like so I'm asking for help! Should both of the suspension "loops" go into the 'biner?
    Put another way....in pic 4, should the base of the triangle be pulled up and into the carabiner?

    Thank you

    The primary suspension is the shock cord running through the channels on the UQ edges. That holds the UQ snugly under the hammock. The secondary terminates at the line-locs and those pieces of shock cord are used to get the UQ positioned lengthwise under the hammock and to keep the UQ from bunching up. Both suspensions need to be hooked into the S-biners on each end.

    Yep! Make sure your primary and secondary suspensions are both clicked into the S-Biner at each end. The primary suspension is the line running all the way through the quilt (in picture 4, it's the one not clipped into the S-Biner). The secondary suspension should be knotted to the S-Biner, like in picture 4 and 1. Both ends should look the same. Keep me posted if you run into any issues! Email works best, but I do check here every weekday.
