    Simple

    Very simple, quick and easy to use.

  2. DP
    rca kit

    endless uses ,great for small cordage.

  3. MC
    Great piece of gear

    The loop alien is a good piece of gear and would highly recommend it

  4. ZC
    Does not work with paracord.

    This is too small (literally cannot loop through the medium hole, making half the uses impossible) and sharp edged (too much friction, cannot slide or use for better leverage) for paracord. I wished there had been a notice saying to get the XL instead if to be used with paracord…since it is so heavily used in the camping community. It will work with the thinner spectra, at least, but I still greatly regret my purchase after realizing it will not work with the most readily available and widely used cordage. They should specifically note what cordage will or will not work with this so they do not get more disappointed customers who wasted their money like me. Pity, was looking forward to using.

    Response from Hammock Gear:
    Apologies for this Zachary! We will be reaching out to you to initiate a return and will update our website with more detailed information.

    ALUMINUM RCA

    I just got back from an overnight and could not ask for a much better setup for my superfly tarp it works as advertised and the best for tensioning your tarp I highly recommend it.
    I tensioned the tarp and it held very well.
