Coghlan's Adjustable Hammock Straps - 9' Long - Qty 2

Video Transcript for Review of Coghlans Adjustable Hammock Straps - CG44GV

Hi, everybody. My name is Andy with etrailer.com. And today, we're taking a look at Coghlan's adjustable hammock straps. Now, these straps are going to give you the ability to extend the length of your hammock ropes, giving you the ability to hang your hammock in more locations. Let me give you a brief close up of these straps. And I have one here that has a widened nylon sheath and this sheath is going to help reduce the damage to the trees that you have this wrapped around.

The sheath is going to be two inches wide by 23 inches long. And the strap itself is adjustable up to nine feet long. And so obviously I have one strap here and this does come in a set of two, and it also comes with a storage pouch. And unfortunately, I don't have a tree or a pole that I could use to demonstrate for you how this works in my studio. So I have this tripod here just to kind of give you an idea of how you would use this if you're not familiar with how to use these straps.

You would just wrap the strap around a sturdy tree or a pole, and then you would have this loop here and you would run the knotted end through this loop. So you have this knotted end, you run it through the loop and then you begin to cinch the strap around that tree or pole. And so that kinda gives you a rough idea of what that would look like around a tree. And then, you come to the knotted loops here and you would take the carabiner of your hammock rope and you would put it in the loop that would allow ground clearance of your hammock of about 18 inches. So whatever loop will give you that ground clearance of your hammock, that's the one that you would choose, and then you're good to go with your hammock.

Now, by the way, the safe working load of these straps are 600 pounds, so just so you are aware of that. And they do, as I mentioned before, come with a nice storage pouch. So what I'm gonna do is just briefly show you how you can quickly roll these up and put them away when you are done using your hammock. And really, there's no wrong way to roll these up. So I'm just gonna roll this one up.

Just small enough to where I can get it into that pouch that it comes with. And so here is the pouch that it comes with. And then I went ahead and pre-rolled the second strap here. And we'll just go ahead and put that in the pouch. Nice and easy. And then what I like about this pouch is it does have a drawstring with a cord lock so that's gonna hold everything in place in your pouch. And you're going to be good to go. Nice and compact, easily put away, and easily accessible when you're ready to hang out in your hammock once again. Now, if you're looking for items such as hammock carabiners, we do have you covered here at etrailer.com.
