    Guyline recommendation

    Hi I was wondering if anyone had a recommendation on guy line for use on hammock/bug cover/tarp setup. Warbonnet was out of stock on everything. I’ve used nite ize on my tent setup. Would this be fine to use for hammock? It’s a bit thicker than the stuff warbonnet sells so I wasn’t 100% sure. I’m open to other recommendations. Just need to find something I can get sooner rather than later.

    As long as it's non-stretchy should be fine. I normally use 1.75mm Zing It or Lash It (Dutch carries it). I've also used Zpacks 1.3mm Z-Line.

    Thanks for the Dutch recommendation. Yeah the nite ize is a little thicker at 2.2 if I recall correctly but not stretchy all and quite reflective.

    Ive been using Lawson glowire, and think its pretty solid. They definitely light up at night and keep me from tripping on them.

    Anything thats no stretch works. Stay away from paracord.
    Lash-it or zing-it in 1.75 is my normal go to.

    Well Dutch had the lash-it in stock and after emailing them told me no issues in getting a spool shipped out to me tomorrow. So I’m gonna give that a try. Thank you for the suggestions!
