Jay. I got quite a few from treekit. Reasonably priced and he does the Tenex aswell to make the slings.

 

I made a 4.5 metre whoopie with the beast rings.

 

Cheers rich. So basically you have to buy the rings for say £15 or so then splice/attach the sling, do they not come as one unit all ready to go?

Basically mate, yes. A bit more than 15 quid though.

 

The beast rings are very large and can handle 19mm rope easily. Just for reference the yellow tenex on the woopie I made is 19mm. All in all though the cost is far less than a 19mm impact block and deadeye to connect it with.

I really like it but a load of the firms I sub for have a Krab permanently attached to the rigging line with the tightest Fishermans knot known to man.. When I have my own rigging kit I reckon I'll own a set for sure..

 

 

My thoughts exactly. Every time I have to take the karabiner off the rigging line gets shorter by a foot or so!

That's easy just carry a shape knife where ever you go! Haaa!

 

Only ever temporary put a bina on my ropes when I see the need to. Otherwise there off and it's back to hitches :)
