I use a smal maillon, just fits over the spliced end if rope, makes it through the big ring and not through the small one. Indestructible and the rest of teh time can be used for other purposes or kept securely on your gear loop.

If your anywhere near a shop that sells sailing supplies you can normally find ball stops that are the exact size you need and they're pretty cheap. They'll probably have some nice thin cord for it too

The rubber keeps it short and the karabiner in place.

 

Don't use a knot because this happens.

And if it really gets stuck the rubber band will break . mind you these tent rubbers are very strong.

Nice one for the detailed reply found a pack of 4 32mm sailing beads on ebay for £5.49 I think ill use some pull start cord until I can find somewhere for the rubber ties.

Cheers pal :)
