Awesome, thanks for the response. I'm really liking the looks and reviews of Loco Libres stuff. I may have just found my next set of quilts!

Awesome, thanks for the response. I'm really liking the looks and reviews of Loco Libres stuff. I may have just found my next set of quilts!
I'm considering a bridge hammock next as well. I would be very interested to hear your thoughts on the Ridge Runner VS the JRB BMBH. Have you had the chance to thoroughly compare the two? What did...
That's a sweet looking color combo. I will likely go with the same combo on my next set of quilts for work. Dark olive on the outside for concealment, orange on the inside in the event I need to...
Do you guys have pictures of this setup by chance? With the SRL, is there still a need to run the ridgeline for the net, or does the SRL keep it taught enough to be out of your face? Thanks!
Curious, how would you describe the lay in the 270? I am a side sleeper, and while I do have a few gathered end hammocks that are comfortable, I'm still looking for a flatter lay. How flat would you...
Thanks so much for the review. I literally just bookmarked the pages on Loco Libre's site to the 50 degree Operator top quilt and underquilt. I am thinking this may be my next set of work quilts. I...
That's a great looking tarp. I may still pick one of these up. That Bushwack camo is just awesome looking too!
My first trip to SE Asia we had some monkeys at our base camp. For about a month, they would come into our camp at night and throw things at us, sneak up on us while we were sleeping and make loud...
It's the mini biner that came with the dream hammock. When the hammock is in the stuff sack, I use it to clip the two ends of the stuff sack together so the strings aren't just hanging around getting...
Congrats on the DH! I absolutely love mine, and sleep in it for a few months at a time while overseas. The wait is definitely the hard part! In fact, from the time I ordered to the time I received...
With some of these temps I am reading, you guys are nuts lol! I don't like doing anything below 70 degrees! The coldest I have hung in was 30 degrees f at 7000 feet in the mountains of Vietnam. I...
I have used the standard tarp with my Expedition Asym Zip in the rainy season in South East Asia. I had no issues getting wet whatsoever. My issue with the tarp is that you have to pitch it so close...
Figured I would update, now that I have spent a few months of sleeping in the Sparrow. This thing is very comfortable. I have never slept in a bridge hammock, so I cannot compare there, but compared...
Hey, just seeing this. I have a few pics of the tarp from the inside. I am getting ready to leave for another overseas trip in a few days, so its all packed up right now. Ill see if I can grab a few...
Well, I figured I'd update. I ordered a 12' Winter Haven with the internal pole mod in dark olive. Jared was wonderful to work with. He answered all my questions, was very curtious and professional,...
Well, I'm glad I came across this video. This just arrived!

12' with internal pole mod in dark olive. The quality and stitching on this thing is beautiful.
There is just all kinds of sexiness in that pic there! That's a great looking setup! Ironically, I am in the military and cannot have any camo or military affiliated gear lol. Multicam looks great on...
Is the bottom picture the interior pole mod that Jared does? That's a great looking tarp you got there!
Very nice video! I am ordering either a SLD Winter Haven, an UGQ Winter Dream, or possibly the Warbonnet Superfly, today! I have to order today in order to receive it on time for my next overseas...
We have a shade very similar to the one you posted a link to. It works well for us at the beach because its easy to break down if it gets too windy, and as you mentioned, we are not always around...
I have an SMR Nube setup in the backyard for the wife. It works well for us because here in Hawaii it is either sunny or raining, both of which we like to have a tarp up for. When the skeeters are...
Is the Blackbird still available? Color? PM sent.
To echo what some have already mentioned, I am 5'6" and I find my XLC to be very comfortable. I do have some floppy fabric at the foot end, but not enough to bother me too bad. I have not layer in a...
Hey, sorry I'm just seeing this. I just got back from back to back overseas trips, and will be gone again
In August. Anyways, I initially wanted to try to Nube because it looked like it was more of...
Glad to hear that. I've used my Nube for a total of around 4 months now in Vietnam, most of it in the rainy season. I haven't had a single leak yet. I have had a few mornings with condensation, but...
Awesome video Papa Smurf!
Interesting. I'll be keeping an eye on this. My wife and I have considered a Clark 2 person, but this looks very promising! Great job and looking forward to seeing the final product!
Congrats! UGQ makes some sweet stuff! One of these days I'm going to spring for a matching top quilt specifically for my Mclaren Tartan plaid Sparrow.
In my Sparrow, I have a ridgeline organizer, an open top pocket, a zipper top pocket and a peak shelf. Overkill, I know, but I live in it for several months at a time. In the ridgeline organizer, I...
Lol! Love the video, definitely a unique setup for sure! This would look perfect hanging outside a Mellow Mushroom!
I have tried several different setups with mine. I have removed the elastic and ran a ridgeline through the inside, ran the original ridgeline on the outside as advertised, ran 2 separate lines, one...
I still own 2 ENOs, and they both still get some use. Sure, I have other hammocks like my Dream Hammock Sparrow, Warbonnet BB XLC, Hennessy, etc. each has its own use for me. For instance, I have an...
As I'm sure you know, the Explorer is an 11 ft hammock, as is the Warbonnet Blackbird XLC. In my experience, although the same length, they are very different animals. The asym cut on the Hennessy...
Sidneyhornblower covered your issues perfectly. I hear pretty often about how the HH tarps are too small, etc. I spent 35 nights straight in my expedition asym zip my first trip to Vietnam for work....
Congrats on the Sparrow! That's a sweet setup. I just spent 45 days straight in my Sparrow, not a single uncomfortable night. Heading back out in a few weeks to Vietnam, where I'll be living in it...
That's a beautiful hammock! I really like the overcover vent locations.
Howdy folks, just wanted to show off my new Dream Hammock Sparrow. Its 1.6 HyperD double layer, with Moroccan blue on the outside and MacLaran Tartan plaid on the inside. The over cover is also 1.6oz...
Just got it in the mail today. All I can say is, Wow. Its much more stunning in person! I've already spent a few hours in it, and my 16YO son is in it now lol. It really is a dream! Thanks so much to...
Well, I have a trip to Vietnam coming up in about a month, so I ordered up a Nube to use while I'm there. Seems like a good solution for me, as I will be sleeping in the hammock every night for about...
I understand your train of thought. There are places I go for work that are well above treeline, say for instance the Hindu Kush in India. On those instances I use a single person tent and my trusted...
Looks great! I just ordered up one from them as well!
Awesome topic. I have twin 11 Y.O. girls and a 6 Y.O. boy who have shown interest in hammock camping recently. My plan was to just pick up a few Hennessy Cubs for them, and upgrade later if they...
This video is what gave me the idea to hand a hammock in my Jeep. Works surprisingly well!
If you are looking for something chaep and pretty comfortable, ENO makes a basic affordable hammock. Even after all the cool guy hammocks I have purchased, I still keep a few ENOs around. If you are...
I cant wait to see your review of the Nube. Your videos are always well thought out, and very entertaining! I am considering picking up the Nube for the exact reasons you mentioned. I can have plenty...
While I have not yet taken delivery of my Dream Hammock, I have hung in similar setups and just spent about a month in a Warbonnet Blackbird XLC. I have to say, the Warbonnet is very comfortable. The...
I've recently experience the same issue. I'm going to give the shock cord a try as well. I did not enjoy feeling like I had to keep adjusting the tension of the tie outs.
Welcome from Oahu from a fellow Jeeper! Nice TJ!
