- There are many ways to set up a tarp. But there is a simple piece of gear that will make your setup and takedown quick and easy. Not only for the guylines. But also for the ridgeline. Plus it is very light in weight and inexpensive. In this episode. We are going to look at this cool gadget. To see if it is worth it's weight!
Line locs:
Hammock Gear ( www.hammockgea... )
Line locs with loop strap sewn: ZPacks ( www.zpacks.com )

I have linelocs on the tie outs for my tarp but never thought about using them on the ridgeline. Just order some to make the conversation. This way looks a lot easier to center the tarp of the hammock. Love the videos. I was in the Marines from 2002-2012, medically retired. Never left Lejeune except for deployments and some schools. Semper Fi.
Line-Locs on the ridgeline makes setting up and taking down. So much easier and a lot faster. Thank you Curtis for watching. I really appreciate it. Semper Fi!
I am currently using the stingerz which is great; however, I ike the line locs which would be much easier and quicker to set up the tarp. Thanks for the tip.
I am torn between the Stingerz and the Line Loc's. Right now I am half and half with my tarps. You can't go wrong with either. Thank you so much for watching. I really appreciate it.
Thanks, Marine! Blessings.
Thank you Poppy for watching. God bless.
I have always preferred the split ridge line, but never thought of using line locks! Genius! Pure genius! Thank you!
I just order another tarp. I made sure they put Line-Locs on the ridgeline. But remember to always a simple slip knot behind the Line-Loc. To prevent slipping in high winds. Thank you Sundaymorninghikes for watching. I really appreciate it.
@AdventureswiththeMarine Yeah... good call for the line locks! I'm debating on what tarp to get next - maybe a printed one...maybe camo DCF...I "only" have five to go along with my four hammocks. I guess I should get another hammock or two to balance it all out.
G'mornin Marine!!
went to Gear Aid and searched for these and nothin came up! Would you tell us where WE can purchase these 4 for a dollar please?? Thank you kindly...Old John
I am so sorry. I was on a trip when this episode was uploaded. Just got back. And I forgot to put in links. Just put them in. Hammock Gear has them for .32 cents. Thank you Oldpisces for watching. I really appreciate it.
Thank you so much! I've been looking everywhere to figure out how to install the guylines on my new tarp! This was the best instructional video I could find!
You're very welcome! Thank you Screamswithbears for watching. I really appreciate it.
Hahaha loved the boing boing boing at 5:27. Thanks for the tutorial, Ron!
Great sound effects. I will have to come up with more.
Well, I never knew about line-locs, seems much simpler then using my loopAlien around the Ridgeline. Very cheap in price too.. These videos enhanced my knowledge of alternatives to setting up a tarp. Much appreciated.
It is always good to have options. And also trying new things. Which I love to do. I can easily get stuck in the same old same old! Thank you Paul for watching. I really appreciate it.
Stingerz and fleaz. Learned from you sir!
Can go wrong with that. That is what most of my tarps are wearing. Still my favorite combo. But I am liking those line locs. Thank you Bryan for watching. I always appreciate it.
I always learn something new or am reminded about something I ought to be doing 😊
Thank you Joanfos so much. I appreciate that!
Another great video, thanks for posting
Thank you Jerry. I really do appreciate you watching.
Just recently found your channel. Really enjoy the content. Keep doing what you're doing. Semper Fi!!
Welcome aboard! Thank you Monkeyboy for watching. I really appreciate it. Semper Fi!
Great video. I love them. They came with my first tarp but I bought some Lineloc Hooks for my Winter tarp. I have shock cord on the tarp ends and don't like to have the guy lines in the snakeskin along with the tarp. With the guy line staked, it's easy to attach the LineLoc Hook to the shock cord. I also used them for my tarp doors with thinner shock cord.
Great tip! I have a tarp that I am testing for Hammock Gear that is like Cuban Fiber ( Dyneema ). It is stronger, but very bulky. I have a hard time getting it a stuff sack. So it can be packable. I also have the guy line detached. They only take a second to slip through the hole in the line- locs. Thank you Rodoutdoors for sharing that. Good stuff!
@@AdventureswiththeMarine Thanks! I like the setup. I keep the guy lines + LineLoc Hooks in a bag with the hammock suspension straps. It feels more tidy this way instead of guy lines flying around after you undo the snakeskin. Sometimes I don't need the guy lines and stake down the shock cord ends if I'm going low.
I was getting ready to comment on using shock cord, especially for dyneema. But you beat me to it.
I hate when that happens! Lol. Thank you Vickaiser for watching. Much appreciated!
You da man. Brother from another mother 👌
Thank you Mikejw58 for watching. Much appreciated!
brilliant Marine 👌
Thank you Waynus so much. I really appreciate it.
Great and I like how simple it looks. How do you store your zing it because they can get messy
Figure 8 it between your pinky and index finger. It then will not tangle. thank you SpannerMan Sam for watching. I really appreciate it.
I had used the linelocs on my tarp guyouts for years until I realized that over time the groove that holds the line secure will wear out...probably from friction of the rope passing through during adjustment. In time, they will need to be replaced.
Thank you Tim for sharing that. Very good info!
Great videos I've learned so much and thanks, was wondering if u do a video of take down/packing up?
Coming soon! Thank you Dwightjames for watching. I really do appreciate it.
As someone else posted, I would not use plastic on the tarp ridge line. But the line locs are great on the guylines. You can get them with a hook so you don’t have to permanently attach them to the tarp itself - like if you have more than one tarp. I put a just a shock cord loop on the tarp and keep the “hook” lineloc on the guyline. So I have one guyline set I can use with any tarp.
I like your thinking. Thank you Cougermeat for sharing that. Good stuff!
That's exactly how I have mine set up. The Lineloc Hooks are great. 👍
another great video
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you AA1PR so much for watching. I always appreciate it.
@@AdventureswiththeMarine always God Bless
what is the outro music? it’s so good
Golden Things by Kylie Dailey. Great singer! Thank you Nickrambles for watching. I really appreciate it.
Line locks are like the original mousetrap, hard to improve or make better. I think Zpacks still sells them attached to a ribbon for attaching to an existing d-ring.
That is very good info. Thank you John for sharing that. Much appreciated!
Huh? Live traps are much better and less cruel than “original mousetraps”. Bad example. 🤦🏻♂️
Thanks for the video. Have you ever had one of those break especially and subzero temperatures?
I was worried about that with it being made of plastic. -10° is the coldest. I haven't yet taken it to temperatures lower than that. thank you Mnmikeoutdoors for watching. I really appreciate it.
Marine, the last video that I see that you made was six months ago I hope that you’re OK
I am doing great. Thank you FisherOutdoorAdventures for asking. Very much appreciated!
Hi Marine, thanks so much for yet another helpful video! I was wondering if you would recommend using shock cord loops to attach the line locks on a silpoly tarp (WB Superfly) as well?
Yes, absolutely. It will protect your tarp from added pressure and stress from the wind, rain, and snow. Thank you Andrewprarson for watching. I really appreciate it.
Ok will do, thanks!
Have you ever had any issues with the 2mm reflective cord (assuming it’s the kind Hammock Gear sells) loosening in the line locs? I’ve run into some issues with that on my previous tarp but hoping it won’t be a problem with the new tarp as long as I start using the slip knots that you showed in the video. Thanks!
I've just got some blackmorph (thermoplastic) for a stock project, I think I might make a few of these as well now with leftovers. 👍
That's a great idea! Please let me know how it works out. Thank you Nosoulnomore for watching. i really appreciate it.
I went to look up those line locs, can't believe how many different types there are.
I like the ones from Hammock Gear. Thank you SFCRambo for watching. Much appreciated!
Just a quick question Marine. Could you use a small bit of shock cord on the panels of your dyneema tarp or is that overkill
I don't. And never had a problem. But Tad from Hammock Gear. Said it would be wise to use shock cord. To protect your investment. Those Dyneema tarps are not cheap. So I would say no. It is not overkill. But more than likely. Wise!
@BackpackingWithaHammock thanks Marine will do. And yes lots of money not to take the extra protection
Great video! My first ridge line setup I used a line lock. But later I read/saw that it could break in high winds. I would love to go back to it because it was so much easier. Do you know if they will hold? Not that it will hold and not slip but not physically break.
I have used them almost year round. Even in the high wind coming across the big lakes. Never had a problem with them breaking. But they are made of plastic. Superior Gear has his tarps with them made of metal. Which are a little bit of a deferent designs. But the same concept. But again. I will always put a simple slip knot behind them.
@@AdventureswiththeMarine Thanks Marine!
I wish I had known this method before getting all that Dutchware stuff. It's lighter and simpler. So why don't you need to use shock cord with a DCF tarp? It seems like the reverse would be true since it doesn't have any give to it. I'm only asking because I finally broke down and ordered one. (Once my wife finds out I spent all that money, I'll probably end up living under it full-time lol)
You should always use shock on your tarps. I have a Dyneema Tarp that Hammock Gear is making for me. As soon as it comes. On will go the shock cord. They are way too expensive to have any type of damage. Thank you Samsmith for watching. I really appreciate it.
Yeah, that's what I thought. I must have misunderstood you.
Hey Ron, I challenge you to finish your next video on the left knee instead of the right one ;)
Challenge accepted. But I don't think I can handle the pressure. But I will try.
Is zingit better then 7 64th amsteel?
Zing it for the tarp. Amsteel for the hammock. Some companies are using zing it or Lash it for the hammock ridge line to save weight. I believe that is foolish. On those long hangs. ( trees farther than you would want ) With the suspension at a low angle. Zing it would more than likely break. which would more than likely damage you hammock. Breaking strength: Zing it - 400lbs. Amsteel 1600 lbs.
How do you like that pup tent? More important how does Henry like it?
That is funny you asked. The next episode is a trip with Henry. At night. He wants to be by us by the fire. But he also wants to be in his pup tent. Every time I went to my hammock to get something. He would run to the pup tent to go in for his night of slumber. I wish it had poles so I could move next to us. the prototype type had them. But I guess they would be added weight. He thinks he is so cool in his private little shelter. I will be doing a video on the pup tent soon.
