The hex fly looks good. More coverage. Does it hold up well in wind ? The stock fly just flaps away in strong wind. The one night I have been out gusts to 40 mph. I go tired of adjusting and just...
Gotta luv the HH. First hang in HH last night. Temps from 50 down to 34 just before 5 am. The HH proved to be all you guys said it would be. I was able to lay flat left to right. Will need to get an...
I went with the eye level set with the huggers last night in the dark (that was fun). I am finding I also like the HH set tight, I can sleep pretty flat(ish). could have slept there all night !
I was thinking a possible stack hang might work well with the hut.
Going to have to get the 8 X 8, better coverage etc. For double hang its looking like the JRB hammock hut is tops.
This sounds like it will work for me. The rings seem like set-up alone will be a little easier too. The ability to tension one side & then the other with-out tying & untying knots will be a big...
Im not sure about cutting the suspension on the HH. Is that necessary to cut for the ring buckle set up ?
An UQ is on the list for sure. The second reason for the larger tarp was so I could hang two hammocks under one tarp. The wife dont know it yet but the second HH at the house is hers. Since the...
Thats what Im worried about, cutting it too close. Dont want to wake up swimming !
On the JRB site it appears that the 8 x 8 has more than enough coverage. The two tarp set up looks good, plenty of...
The stock HH tarp on the Exped asym looks small. I know with proper set up this should not be a problem in rain, but, more protection cant hurt right ? Anybody currently using the JRB 8X8 tarp with...
Sorry, found Just Jeffs post on ring buckles, I have to go to that thread !
The cinch buckles & biners attachment system, sounds like a good deal, any one have any pics of their system heck throw in prows & cons too.
I hang my current hammock tie outs at neck level. This works fine for my home made, puts top entry at just below waist level. Havent checked the angle of suspension yet. Cant wait to get the HH and...
Dont have the HH yet. UPS has it on a truck somewhere between here & there. Before its gets here wanted to get up to speed as much as possible.
I have used hammocks for camping for many years now. Have used home made hammocks since I was in the military, and the not so comfortable net hammock. Decided to move up to HH. Just a couple of...
Wal mart has a little can of compressed air in the sporting goods area that has an attached horn. Its light and fits in the top flap of my pack well and it makes alot of noise ! Last summer used it...
Mod looks great this helps with decision to get an HH. Have been using home made for a long time. I like the top entry option for the HH.
I first started to use a hammock in 1990. At first it was a step to cut pack weight, 20 mile road marches in full gear are no joke. Fist hammock was rope type, OD green in color. Used extreme cold...
