Simply Light Designs Adjustable Ridgeline
Description
An adjustable structural ridgeline helps create a consistent hammock sag while allowing you to fine-tune the setup to your personal preference.
Each ridgeline is sized according to your hammock length, with an adjustment range centered around the commonly used 83% starting point. Once you find the setting you prefer, the ridgeline helps maintain that same sag each time you set up your hammock.
Features
- Adjustable design for fine-tuning hammock sag
- Sized according to your hammock length
- Made from 7/64" AmSteel
- Fixed eye at one end and adjustable eye at the other
- Safety prusik with the tail embedded to help prevent it from coming undone
Choosing Your Size
Select the option that matches the length of your hammock. For example, select the 11' option for an 11' hammock.
The adjustment range will be sized appropriately for the selected hammock length, with the ability to try lengths on either side of the general 83% rule.

- Once adjusted, the ridgeline helps maintain a consistent hammock shape between setups.
Notes
Approximately 83% of hammock length is a common starting point for structural ridgeline length, but individual preferences vary. The adjustable design allows you to experiment with the amount of sag until you find the setting you prefer.
Weights shown are average production weights and may vary slightly due to normal material and manufacturing variations.
