    1.8mm dynaglide whoopie good enough?

    Is the 1.8mm dynaglide shown at this link, which is listed as having a 1,000 pound break strength (doesn't say static or dynamic) strong enough for a whoopie sling to hold a 155 pound man at a 35 degree angle? http://www.amazon.com/England-Green-...9373593&sr=8-3
