Glossary of terms
Tuglines
Y shaped attached direct to the sled or for double leaders
Necklines
Attached to dog collar and spliced to the towline
Towlines/Centrelines
Central towline takes more strain, generally 3/8”
Shockcord/shockline
Added to the line to ease strain on the dogs when there is a sudden stop
Usually attached to the sled/rig
Fastening
Either connect the loops together by pulling one loop through the other, or attach using locking caribiners or
similar. (Second method makes unhitching sections whilst the dogs are hooked up easier)
