I am getting really excited about this hammock
The SB is on its way to you. It should in theory be with you soon. It looks very nice, I love the fabric is made from. Much nicer than most of my Hennessey's.Quote:

Anyway enjoy.
Not trying to sound rude or impatient, but there hasn't been any activity on the spread sheet in over a month and very little activity on this tread in several months. I'm just wondering where we all stand in the pecking order.
Thanks,

Package just arrived to me on 7/22. Will give it a try and send it on to the next one in line.
Sending to Ironfish45 today (8/8).
WOW, I am glad the Switchback is on hike again, I hope it arrives here soon, I have plans for it!:laugh:Quote:

Seems as if some people hung (!) onto the SB for a rather long time. How come no one is posting their opnions?
This is a great marketing idea.
I'd like to hear more as well.Quote:

My personal hammock is a Switchback 1.1DL, so I'm predisposed to be a fan of TTTG. The subject hammock is a 1.9DL. Without putting it on a scale, there was no discernable difference in the weight, nor in the ease at which it stuffs back into the sack. I use whoopie slings on my hammock and the 1.9DL comes with straps/rings, so a bit more weight & bulk than my set up. I actually liked this set up a lot more than I thought I would and will more than likely do something like this if/when I get a second hammock. Bug net is very easy to zip/unzip from both inside and outside the hammock. Attached strips allow you to roll the net up and out of the way when not needed. Ridgeline under net allows me to hang my headlamp, socks, etc. Two pockets in the hammock hold all the various little things that come out of my pockets at night plus tarp stakes if I've got the tarp hung, but it is not being used due to nice weather. I've used both a HammockGear UQ and a pad for insulation. Both work as if they were made for this hammock. No issues in keeping warm and comfortable. Used the UQ in 40 degree weather and the pad in 60 degree weather as I thought the UQ would be too toasty.
The tarp is a diamond shape which I hung to see it deployed. I have a 4 season/4 door HammockGear tarp, so I'm used to having move coverage/protection that what the TTTG tarp provides. No problems with the tarp construction, etc., just my personal preference is for a larger tarp. My tarp is Cuben, so lighter than the TTTG tarp (silnylon) and more coverage.
All in all, both items are quite nice. I would not hesitate in buying another hammock from TTTG. I may "have to" around Christmas as my oldest daughter thinks she has to have one now.
