I've been using these new "Multi-Point Slings" (mistakenly referred to by some as "spider-legs") from WesSpur for the last few weeks and all I can say is they are incredible. They have a knotted WLL of 7,056 lbs! They are made from Quantum X Dyneema/Polyester are tied and untied easy using a cow hitch termination. Do not let the price scare you off. Bid them into a job and they will pay for themselves right away.
Now, 9 times out of 10, I can sling anything with a single eye-to-eye choker, but when I need that zero movement factor on some picks, you won't beat these slings. We tested them out thoroughly at The Crane Man Inc. Workshop in Penn. and I was sold after using them.
A big thanks to Nice Guy Dave from WesSpur for letting us put the slings through a bunch of different tests.
