Extra uses for dynaglide

[HammockHunter]

I have some extra 1.75 mm dynaglide and zing-it. What uses have you all found for it beyond suspension? Love to hear some ideas!

Uses for dynaglide:

UCR/Whoopie suspension - obviously.

Static Ridgeline - Splice a 0.5"-1" loop on each end and larks head it to your suspension.

Adjustable Ridgeline - If you have more than you need for just a static ridgeline make a UCR that's split in the middle and now you can easily adjust your sag. Make sure to leave a tail on the constrictor end to tie a prussik with for tension - it'll slip otherwise.

Bear Bag line - it was meant for throwing over tree's to begin with, right?

Continuous loops, dog bones, nacrabiner's, etc..basically anything you might use amsteel for...only lighter and smaller

I use it either dynaglide or lash-it as a pack leash, wrap it around the tree at chest height and put an MSH in it and slip a carabiner through the MSH. Clip the carabiner to your pack hanging strap and now you have your pack off the ground for stuffing your gear in when you pack up or pulling stuff out when you're setting up camp.

I also have a few lengths of zing-it as tieout extenders for the tarp. If you want to setup porch mode but don't have long enough tieouts attached to the tarp you can girth hitch an extender to your tieout to add some length. A few 5-10 foot lengths with eyes on the end is what I carry (you can also use these to help carry wood in bundles back to camp. Lay the cordage down on the ground. Lay the firewood on top. Run one end of the cord through one of the eyes and it cinches down on the pile. A couple wraps of the free end around a stick and carry back to camp).

I also use two pieces of dynaglide as suspension extenders either to reach the webbing around trees that are too girthy or to extend the length of the hang if the trees are too far apart.

How about triangle thingies for your UQ? I know there's a thread around here somewhere that shows how to do so...

Thanks y'all I'm going to make some soft shackles. Are they really lighter than say a nite ize min s biner?

Probably not, but it'll hold a lot more.

Dynaglide (or amsteel) I put a snap on one end and a look on the other to make a super lightweight dog leash.

as a clothesline, as a pack and gear hangar, and in a pinch doubled up as a light-duty climbing aid
