Whoopie slings modification to a DD Hammock

[Bustertb]

Nice instructions. I just ordered some whoopie slings. Looking forward to using them!

@Bustertb Thank you Buster. I must say that I am really happy with them. They have dramatically reduced the weight of my set up and last time I went out (the January Camp video), it only too a little over 2 minutes to set up and tension my hammock!! Thanks again, Adrian.

What did you do with the original webbing on the DD Hammock. There is quite a lot of it but I am reluctant to cut it and heat seal it just in case.

@windymi11er Hi Windy, Originally when I did this video I left a short amount of the original webbing in the gathered ends of the hammock and heat sealed them and tied them. However, I have subsequently removed the caribiners as the whoopie slings dont transfer and rain water. Some of the redundant webbing is now being used for the home made tree huggers. Hope this helps. Adrian

That's fantastic buddy. I will have to take a much closer look at your set-up next time we are in the woods. Keep them comming Ade

@jasonafrancis22 No worries pal. The whoopie slings are my new favourite set up and I can have the hammock slung and tight in under two minutes.

@Wham6666 Thank you very much for your kind comment. Whoopie slings are relatively new to me but they are so easy to use that I will be sticking with them as part of my permanent set-up. Ade
