With two hammocks 1/8 amsteel ridgeline and two hammocks 2.2 ZingIt or something similar.
None of my hammocks have a busted ridgeline
And maybe I’ve heard of one or zero hammock ridgelines snapping. Maybe none I can remember.
And if a hammock ridgeline breaks, it just breaks and there is no bad result. Except possibly the taut line could flick your eye when it snapped.
The hammock ends would instantly find their new equilibrium.
And you’d want to replace ridgeline when you got home.
Mainly have fun out there, enjoy your friends and piney woods. Hammock camping is new to most of us. If you go to a group hang, you will not see any hammock campers campsite rigged identically to any other campsite.
This is true, even if all the gear is identical, somewhere there will be hardware or knot different from the other setup.
I guess you could have two rigs mirror imaged of one another—if the same person got all same accessories and setup both rigs.
