Amsteel, also known as Dyneema cord, is a versatile and high-performance material that finds its use in various outdoor activities such as hammock camping and kayaking. Its most popular application is in creating whoopie slings, a lightweight solution for suspending hammocks.

When utilised for making whoopie slings, Amsteel offers a remarkable way to reduce the overall weight of your hammock, making it an ideal choice for adventurers seeking to lighten their load.

At our store, we offer pre-made Whoopie Slings for your convenience. However, if you prefer a DIY approach or require Amsteel for other purposes, you can purchase it here by the metre. This exceptional rope boasts strength comparable to wire but with a fraction of the weight, along with excellent resistance to abrasion.

For those looking to complete their setup, we recommend considering DD Hammock Karabiners and DD Tree Huggers as complementary accessories to enhance your outdoor experience.
