You can use mini-krabs at one or both ends so you could undo it while lounging around. Another one of those things in hammocking where there's multiple ways to do things, you just choose what suits you, no one right way of doing it. The recommendation is to start at about 83% of the length of your hammock laid out flat. I can't remember if I've gone slightly shorter or longer than that. You just have to experiment to find what you like. I have a (homemade) ridge organiser on mine so I can have things like my gloves, a hat, a torch, my phone to hand so they aren't either actually in the hammock where they move around and become tricky to find or on the ground.JoseMcTavish wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2025 6:58 pm I don't have a ridgeline, but see what you mean about the consistent hang I'd get with it. Whilst I'm a bit blasé about getting the perfect hang etc. I am at least very ruthless in cutting the weight down. The hammock and suspension only weight 233g, though I'm sure adding a ridgeline wouldn't add much. Does it having it there get annoying when you're just sitting in the hammock for a brew? I'd imagine it would either be stuck behind or in front of you?
Weight wise the line plus the organiser are possibly 25g, but my ridgeline is cord rather than zing-it/dyneema so could lose maybe 10g off that.
