This is brilliant! You can literally have a system with one piece of webbing with this around a tree and a becket for the hammock connection.

Masterpiece! An answer for my neverending question: how use straps without sewing loop. What kind of webbing do you use? Looks like something light and thin

[@jeffmyers7062]

I was thinking about trying this out with hammock straps after the KZbin user "First Class Amateur" did his video _"Tarp tension system"_ using the Portuguese bowline a few months ago. That's the knot you're using in this video as well, correct?

[@jeffmyers7062]

not sure , I have to look that one up , you can do this a few ways with two loops , but this way works best in my experience ...this concept is from the soft link and halyard knots from sailing...

[@jeffmyers7062]

Thank you!

[@ZacharyFlorian]

I think that's sometimes called a french bowline

[@jeffmyers7062]

Oh cool. I was also going to use a modified hanson loop.
