Just ordered the new Dynaglide suspension from Dutch (Ultra Light Hardware Free Suspension | DutchWare Gear). I'm a tad concerned about the weight limit because I'm right at the 200 pound mark. Does anyone have experience using this cordage for a whoopie sling suspension and have any thoughts on hanging from it?
If someone from DutchWare Gear reads this, you may want to update your web page for Dynaglide (Dynaglide Throwline Rope (25 Feet) | DutchWare Gear) because it currently states, "We have completed breakage testing at 900 pounds for whoopie slings made of DynaGlide. This does not meet our minimum ratings for hammock suspensions, so we do not suggest this rope for that application."
I guess it's time to heed the best UL advice and lose weight from the hiker before losing weight on the gear.
