Whoopie Sling Mistake

Pulling it through may be the most time efficient. If your line is wide enough you may be able to shove a thin wire (or better yet a sanded street sweeper bristle, those long flat pieces of spring steel you see on the side of the road often) down the cord and catch the loop and slowly work it out that way, but depending how far the loop has retracted this could be a huge pain.

Chris,

I wouldn't use Zing-it to hold a person, unless I'm missing something. Love my Whoopies (Dynaglide and Amsteel).

After doing a bit more research, I think you are right about the zing-it.

I went ahead and used the zing-it because I already had 30ft of it laying around the house and had no other use for it really. I think I will still play with it to see if I can fix it, just to know how, but I will go ahead and work on getting some other cord as well. Thanks for that catch.

Agree on pulling it through… And zing-it is great for sub ~200lb ridgelines, but i wouldn't use it for suspension.

The pros put a bead on there, to prevent pull through. Copy their good ideas.
