Hats off to AHE for a great product and decent turnaround. I can't believe how much easier it is to get my Flex 180 hung using whoopies vs. the stock rope. No tying and retying knots. I'm plum...

Keith, thanks for the suspension ideas. I ordered a JRB spreader bar before the Flex even arrived. I've placed an order for 3 whoopies and tree straps from Arrowhead Equip- should arrive Thursday. ...

Ah, that brings back memories! I started hanging with a HH Ultralight Backpacker ASym. Finding 2 trees in North Georgia was the easy part, but getting the feet-above-head thing just right took a...

I like this pic of my "son", Buddy, greeting me in the morning. My children are of the 4-legged variety.

I've been using these for years under my 3/4 length TRest and it has kept me warm. Only on the dampest nights have I experienced moisture building up b/w the reflector and the TRest. I've got a...

Hey Cal,
I've got a TR Neoair that I just used on a 2 day trip in the mountains of NC. Its covering is stickier than my old TR Ultralight pad, so it doesn't slip around. It's a 3/4 length which is...

The DL is great for keeping things in place, but I really wish I had the dinero for an underquilt- IMO the hammock is more comfortable w/o the pad. It does spread the hammock out, but I found myself...

Backyard trial underway tonight. It's a steamy 74 down here in GA, but I'll have the Thermarest ready just in case.
The BB is one more handsome hammock. I got a nice flat lay the first time up,...

Thanks for the tip...I needed another hammock like a hole in the head- hey why's my scalp wet all of a sudden:scared:
It is a good deal-e-o.

I located a picture on one in the gallery- looks like a nice feature. Thanks for the education!:D

Waiting for the postlady to come bouncing down my road! My BB is on its' way!

Pardon my ignorance, but what is a peak bag? It's not in the glossary. :confused:

I've been thinking about getting my ULBA modded as well. The velcro is about past its useful life and is fraying pretty badly. I also noticed some kinks and breaks on the exterior sheath of my...

Shelby, I recently purchased a Clark Ultralight and kept it for a couple of weeks. My first overnighter in it prompted me to send it back. Since it was within their 20 day window, I was able to...

I miss being able to lay diagonally and get flat. I read some posts about how comfortable the Clark is, but I have to remember that comfort is a very subjective thing. I really like the material of...

Well, Clark fans, I'm afraid I can't count myself among you. My first overnight hang was not a good one. After all the tweaks, and even after removing the ridgeline I installed, I could not get a...

Our economy is predicated on folks like us! Us gear heads are doing our part to get the economy going again. I just waited a month for a Clark to get here, so apparently they're not hurting for...

Hey J-

I larksheaded one end of my 18" doubled loop around my SMC rings, ran it through the channel, and larksheaded again around the rings. I tied the loop after dressing the 2nd larkshead, that...

Sounds like a happy hammocker! I got my suspension/ridgeline tuned in and it is a comfortable little critter. I like being able to slide the netting all the way open and have myself a comfortable...

Thanks for the tips. I will remove the larkshead at the channels and see what that does. I need to give a shout out to Raw for his post and pics of adding a structural ridgeline to his NX-200. I...

Congratulations on the arrival of your HH. I've been backpacking with an UL BP Asym for six years, and only the velcro is showing wear and tear. I've found that pulling the suspension tight and...

I just replaced the stock suspension on my Clark Ultralight and it is fantastic! I've got 15' polypro straps (rainbow colored, no doubt) which I just cinched to the trees by running 1 loop through...

My ultralight arrived, and I fiddled with it in the 102 deg. F heat index weather. Got it all set up after an hour or two, and lots of sweat. Just in time for a 2 hour sho nuf thunderstorm that...

Sorry about that- mine's b/w Atlanta and Athens- should be on my doorstep tomorrow morning and I'll have some time to futz with it! Hope you get it soon.

Welcome Noob,

I've only been a member a couple of weeks and have had several "why didn't I think of that!" moments. I haven't made it to the OBX, but I've flown over it on Google Earth several...

J- my Clark ultralight is due to arrive Friday as well. I've already got 50' of Amsteel Blue 1/8", 2 15' polypro web slings from Strapworks on the way, and SMC rings to use as buckles! I'll be...

I just put an order in for a 1.1 DBL BB. Already got a Clark Ultralight on the way, but they have a pretty good return policy, that is if the BB is the head-to-head winner. I simply cannot keep...

Hey P,

Athens is a good little ride, but I'd be more than happy to pitch my Hennessy up for you one day. Within a week, hopefully, I'll have a Clark Ultralight for you to try as well. PM if...

Welcome Mik- I lived in Avondale Estates before moving back to Athens- there does seem to be a few hangers in our area! All suggestions I've read on this thread are right on. I've used Hennessy's...

I know Statham well enough to know that you best not speed!

Loganville's before Between when driving from my direction! I have some friends in Monroe and we've eaten at Kelly's a couple of times. Where's your favorite hanging spot near home?

Welcome fellow Georgian. Thanks for serving and I wish you a safe trip home. I just ordered a Clark ultralight, so I'll be babbling on and on about it once it gets here. I've been using Hennessy's...

Howdy back, Backcountry. I've done some good car camping off of the Etowah. How's the water level looking lately?

I like your quote, Babelfish- my version should be "It's just an obsession, it's just an obsession...." How's hammocking in Texas? There's parts without a lot of trees.

Thanks, Jon.

Yes Gunner, Athens has changed quite a bit. Actually, the Supply Corps School is closing this year, and they're going to turn the campus into a satellite of the Medical College of Georgia. It's...

Ha Ha- good allusion to old Athens there. Weaver D's has the best squash casserole known to man, and his collards ain't bad either. In case you didn't know, Weaver D's is a soul food restaurant...

Hello my fellow hangers- I just joined up after eavesdropping on your threads for a little while. I've been hanging for about seven years now. I just ordered a Clark ultralight since my dependable...
