When first launched, Sea to Summit’s Pro Suspension Straps redefined the usability and packed-size of hammock set-up. The quick-connect buckle system is minimalist, lightweight, and offers more flexibility in length adjustment. The use of 15mm webbing provides a packed-size of 100mm in diameter by 40mm in height, small enough to fit inside the hammock compression bag.
The pair of buckles are connected in a split second but offer infinite length adjustment so you can achieve the most comfortable hang. One buckle of the pair is bartacked to the hammock while the second buckle is threaded through the Suspension Strap webbing. Pro hammocks use 3mm steel buckle with Nickel plating. The Ultralight hammocks are supplied with 3mm buckles made from lightweight, aircraft aluminium alloy. Compared to traditional carabiner to loop connections, Quick Connect buckles are more compact, lighter, and offer more adjustment.
