Hey Folks,
Well I guess it's time I answered a few questions. The vacation I intended to take n October didn't turn out as planned. Hurricane Matthew flooded us out of our house and then I ended up...
We will be on vacation for 2 weeks and out of touch, so we are closing the store for this period. The dates are 19 Oct until 02 Nov. We will re-open the store upon our return.
Cheers, Dale
Hey Folks,
I have to apologize for my lack of response. I have been in a situation that has demanded all of my time and then some. As Porter Rockwell mentioned, if you do not get a email response...
Well said. This should be a sticky.
Hey Folks,
We are doing a spring cleaning. Every week or two we will be putting a different hammock on sale. The first one is the Switchback 1.9 DL Netless Hammock. This Switchback will not be...
Thanks guys, I love my PolarPod as well. I think it truly is the most efficient insulation system for a hammock.
The Circuit Hike will be hitting the trail again shortly. We decided to replace the CatCut Tarp with the Diamond Tarp.
Cheers, Dale
Hey Tuck,

Hey Folks,
We have put the Switchback 1.1 DL on sale until the end of August or until current inventory is sold, whichever comes first. The sale price is $180.00 for a savings of $50.00. Happy...
Yes, we are still planning on raffling the kit once it has made it to all who have signed up to try it. Folks just don't want to let go of it :lol:
I have sent your info to armnyc so it shouldn't be long now
The Kit is on the way! If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call.
Cheers, Dale
I apologize for taking so long to answer, I have been busy helping friends with their damage. There are about 200 homes damaged, but that is spread out over 4 counties. BillyBob58, glad to hear you...
Hey Folks,
We had 3 tornadoes come through Friday night:cursing:. They tore some stuff up and destroyed some homes. We just received power back, some areas are still without. We will be resume...
Hey Folks,
We are running a sale through 15 June 2014. Any order over $100.00 will receive a 15% discount and FREE SHIPPING:thumbup: with this coupon code: QF23RK6F9. Free shipping applies to...
I just sent Yessirre's info via PM, glad to hear you liked the Switchback.
Cheers, Dale
The center loop is the one that the net suspension (shock cord) is tied to.
Cheers, Dale
Sandy,
Keep in mind that the spreader bars should not be put thru the center loop, the center loop is for the net suspension shock cord only.
Cheers, Dale
Pm sent with address:thumbup:
We didn't take offense when they opened in 2011 because they are in a different market than we are and they obviously have good taste.:D
snwcmpr has sent me the tracking info, so it is on the way to Ojdash:thumbup:
Sil net. It is for sil nylon.
The tarp is my fault, I totally forgot to seal it. My apologies...:(
The net suspension on the LightHiker is achieved similar to the Switchback. There are GG loops sewn to the net on both sides (in/out) of the net on each end. The net suspension is attached to the...
OutandBack & MAD777 are correct in that you had too much slack in the suspension in the posted pics. I would try tightening the suspension on both ends about 6" and then adjusting the height of the...
The Switchback LightHiker was designed as a DL 1.1. John took the Switchback and lightened it up by redesigning the net suspension, going to a lighter zipper, shortened it 8" and made it a dedicated...
Yes, it is the 12' x 10'
Cheers, Dale
PM me with your contact info & put yourself on the sign-up sheet (see post #1)
Cheers, Dale
After several un-answered PM's over an extended period, we have decided to declare the Switchback Circuit Kit (hammock & tarp) as MIA. With that said, we have also decided to put another Switchback...
We only use ours for large events. They are heavy and can be a pain but they are sturdy. If you are looking for a portable stand, you can't beat the TurtleDog stand, but it wont fit in a small trunk.
After re re reading my last post, I realized I didn't make this clear:scared:.
My base is pre-assembled with the Tee, the uprights are bare threaded on both ends and the top bars have the 90's on...
They will rock without caps. I actually have Ed Speers stands (2") and some I made myself (2") which we use at events where the public is going to get in & out of the hammocks all day long. As Rest...
Hey Folks,
For those of you that have always wanted a Switchback but couldn't bring yourself to pull the trigger, here is your chance.
We have put the Switchback 1.1 DL on sale. We have taken...
The PolarPod has 4 openings for the tie outs on the Switchback & LightHiker. The openings are in the seam between the bottom and top panels, on each side. The bottom panel on the PolarPod is the same...
They are some fine down to earth folks. We have been buying material from them from the start. Their customer service is awesome and they are always pleasant on the phone. Every time I have a...
I have a Speer SPE, but it is made for a 20" pad so it is a loaner.
I usually put it on top of my pack (yes, I look like a T), unless the trail conditions require me to strap it in line with the pack. I use quick release straps so relocation isn't a pain. If I'm...
I use a pad down to the low 40's, sometimes the low 30's (not on purpose) but I use a lg Thermarest RidgeRest which is 25"x77". I did not have luck with a 20" pad, kept waking up with a cold right...
Loki,
It was our pleasure. Always a good time in Hot Springs. Now it's time to get ready for the Rat Gathering:thumbup:
I tried to steal that bag of cookies, but FIMB was to quick:scared:.
RED531, I have added you to the spreadsheet. Enjoy!
Welcome to HF from Elizabeth City:thumbup:.
My apologies Taozenqi, I should have checked my PM's first.:scared: I just added you to the spreadsheet.
Cheers, Dale
It is still on the Hike. HurtHeart should have it by now (again:lol:).
dkurfiss, make sure to PM me with your shipping information.
Taozenqi, the link to the spreadsheet is at the bottom of the...
We are glad you enjoyed it.:thumbup:
Hanging with HB & RF on a full moon? This is gonna be fun:lol:.
We shipped them to a address in the US. The guy I talked to was getting ready for the trip and bought the second one for someone who was already there.
Oh do I have a shirt for this. I may even bring one for HB:D. How many domestic tranquility points do you have saved up Tony?
I will see ya there flatline. I had to miss the spring gathering, I WON'T miss the fall gathering.:D
