Adjust hammock until centered and ridge line is level and under light tension. Wrap the loose rope end completely around the tensioned support rope and then drop rope end down into the space between the webbing loops and the tree.
Tighten any slack in the lashing. Repeat lashing at least 3 more times in this ?figure 8? pattern and tie off with two half hitches leaving at least 6?/15 cm of rope. Entrance should be at chair height under tension of your weight. |
