Anyone ever use this to attach Iyengar yoga ropes or slings?

Hi Nina, I have not tried to use it for these Iyengar yoga ropes, but I looked up your ropes and its purpose. I do not think the ultra anchors will work for that purpose. They are very strong and reinforced and you can attach any type of resistance band for the purpose of similating any workout you can do in a gym with nautilus equipment, but not to hold up a body. There would be too much risk of the material to stretch or sag. It would not matter for strength training but I am doubtful of holding body weight and doing yoga exercises while holding body weight. Again, I don't own any yoga ropes so I am not an expert. Amazon pushed me a note to answer your question since I own one of these.

It is weird and not well designed. A loop would be better.I cross my straps, like Im tying a shoelace at the start, then attach the straps to each other's velcro. Works decent.

Definitely would NOT use these for yoga.... as far as resistance training with machines, they are good to use on your heaviest sets. =]

Al: Good question and actually many answers. That little hook is a very handy too especially for pulling wire, leather, or small nylon rope through holes in steel plate, leather, nylon bags etc. In addition the hook can be used for stretching a variety of objects.Good LuckDA of Colorado

Well, you should be able to use one from any shoulder sling bag (like a gym bag or similar) I've found nearly any kind, if adjustable can be modified to fit on it.

I don't think so. Mine requires a vertical pull and I don't think you can do that across your body. I can't remember how many fasteners are used for the belt connection but I believe there is more than one and that would eliminate you inserting at an angle.

Not this particular rope, you'll need something thicker made from manilla. If it's for lifting stuff find som3thing at a higher gauge if you need it to.lift people or animals ect find a nice synthetic.

Absolutely, these are meant for holding a fall while rock/ice climbing. There is no falling impact involved in a yoga hammock, so these should do the job. highly recommend using climbing carabiners for attachment (NOT plastic clips).

I think you would need another tie to your waist. But it is the best camera sling I have ever used for "up right" hobby photography. I also have the Joby heavy duty ball joint tripod. Also the best for me. Pricy but best. quality.

There is plenty of velcro in place to keep things secure but keep in mind that this is for low angle work only. Most of the force is on the buckle itself, with very little on the velcro. Edit: If you're talking about the velcro that keeps the V-Ring in place it has no use while on rope. Purely cosmetic.

Definitely! That's a great idea. If I were in an actual store, with several rope options, this is the rope I would choose for a project like a cat scratching post.

Yes, it is possible to tie a knot using the bands to temporarily shorten them for specific exercises... and doing so will not damage them. But, the knot will tighten with each pull and stretch making it very difficult to loosen it... and struggling to do so, will stress the elastic... That will, eventually, cause damage to the elastic bands.

Yes, you can use this to temporarily tighten your zip line cable, however, a proper sized turnbuckle would be advisable for permanent attachment.

Sure. I'm not sure what you'd tie it to on a SUP, but the anchor is plenty strong if you have enough rope. I'm trying to imagine the scenario you mentioned...if you mean you are going to be doing yoga on top of a SUP while in the water and it anchored to the bottom...I imagine that the water would have to be pretty flat and calm (if so, the supplied rope is likely sufficient). If you are going to paddle to a yoga class, then it would probably be easier to just put your SUP on land for the class. This anchor will hold me (175lbs) in a 70lb kayak with probably another 50-70lbs of gear in it, while anchored to soft sand, in a moving current. It does this because I use about 75ft of rope. The longer the rope, the lower the angle you're creating in the imaginary right triangle. The three points being; you, the bottom directly below you, and the point that the anchor is holding. A lower angle allows for more gripping power of the anchor, and the resisting force is applied more laterally than vertically.

Yes absolutely YES....I purchased it for that exact use and I have done it. Have the pt roll to one side and roll the sling and push it under. .. then have pt roll to other side and pull out the excess sling.... pt should be more or less in middle of the sling. Attach the chains or straps to the sling and the lift. At that point you can slide a chair or wheelchair under them. It is literally a piece of cake.

Yes, you can attach it horizontally (by which I mean sideways, not up and down). I am sure you could tie it about your waist, but I am not sure how secure it would be, given the fact that the straps are elastic.

This might work for strapping down tarps if you always use the same tarp on the same flatbed with the same load. The cord is of good quality and should tolerate weather well. But the logistics of having a permanent cord looped through grommets to attach to tie-down hooks would be slow and hard to adjust. I should probably mention that it is hard to tie the cord to itself (like using a square knot to tie two ends together). It is best to use a crimping tool to crimp a metal staple to hold the two ends together.
