Van harte welkom van een Nederlandse!
Yesterday I received my order from Mountainfitter only 5 days after ordering in the Netherlands!
I've had orders from companies in the Netherlands taking longer to deliver! Can't wait to try out the...
He's vegetarian, so that won't do the trick :laugh:
Try convincing someone who is toasty warm in a Summer Burrow and 3S Phoenix to get out of his super comfortable WBBB....:scared: Any suggestions?
Congrats! Maybe make a Vertex to convince her to join you in the woods?
That could explain it, because my boyfriend checked for gaps between UQ and hammock when I laid on my back instead of my side...
Most of the time I slept on my side, but I indeed moved from side to back a few times. I had a Thermarest lite seat in the footbox of my TQ. When on my side laying fetal the UQ covers me totally...
Slept twice in my 3S Burrow and 3S Phoenix now. The Burrow is amazingly warm and handy getting in and out of at night! With the Phoenix I need more practice, I guess. First night out at 40F, I...
Here they are hanging in the Belgian Ardennes!

I really enjoyed the first hangout, so I am all ears for a 2nd hangout! Zyhano, thanks for organizing the first one!
When looking for environmentally friendly clothing, I bumped into this T-shirt
21512.
I didn't end up buying it, because I prefer bamboo clothing, but thought of it as a fitting nickname, since I...
This weekend I had my first nights sleep in the WBBB! I was very pleased with my set up of the hammock, because I believe I had the angles quite ok for a rookie. I still have plenty to learn though,...
Welkom en groetjes uit Nederland
Welcome from a fellow European!
What would the damage be in Denmark?
Don't know how much is added in Spain, but in the Netherlands 19% taxes is added and 12% import duties and 12,50 Euro for handling costs, so about 88 Euros total.
Having paid quite a large sum of custom duties the last couple of weeks receiving TQ's, UQ's, hammocks and tarps I'm afraid you're mistaken. It was worth it for me, though. I've received excellent...
It's here! My 3s Burrow regular size!
Its' here! My boyfriends Summer Burrow long size!
It's here! My 3s Phoenix!
It's here! My boyfriends 3s Phoenix!
And there's a surprise: Adam and Jenny...
Thanks for all the advice! I still find it difficult to decide, maybe because I'm ill right now so I can't really think clearly. I really like that idea, but with trying it out with mason line I...
Wow, that looks amazing! Thanks for sharing. Malaysia is on my wish list of future holidays!
As a newbee trying to decide how to divide 100' guyline on my BMMJ w/panel pulls, I've already read a couple of posts about the length of guyline tie-outs and ridgelines, but haven't been able to...
Sounds great! I'll PM you.
And just as promised it shipped today! :thumbup:
Pictures can be found in the quote above. I received mine 2 days ago, so excited! When I have time to hang it properly in the woods, I will post pictures in this thread as well.
Our hammocks and tarps have arrived and the quilts have shipped just now! If the TQ's and UQ's take the same time as the hammocks, then they should be here in about 2 weeks. So I am expecting the...
Just got an email that our Burrows and Phoenix have shipped too, so they should arrive in a week or two. :thumbup: Then I'll be able to take an even better picture!
For color reference of the...
This hammock deserves a photo of a decent setup, which the setup in my backyard definitely was not, so as soon as I am able to hang it in the woods with the BMMJ I'll add a picture here.
2 Blackbirds 1.0 double and 2 BMMJ's have safely flown overseas!
I wasn't able to collect them safely myself, though... I had to pay custom duties in cash at the door and didn't have enough lying...
Customs must have been reading this, because the postman tried to deliver it just now!:) I had to pay the custom duties in cash at the door and didn't have enough lying around, so I persuaded the...
My response wasn't meant that way either, just wanted to respond to Mega82 who ordered last friday and was hoping to receive it this weekend. I edited my earlier post to make that more obvious. I...
Tell me about it. My BB 1.0 doubles and BMMJ's are still in customs. After a week still no sign of it coming my way.:(
That would be incredibly fast, because I ordered 02/19 (2 Burrows (one long and one regular) and 2 3S Phoenix) and they told me upfront that it would take about 3 weeks.
Tjalling, check out anyone interested in a Dutch/Belgian hangout?
Since you mentioned WB too and that's a 2/3 I figured you'd consider the Mount Wasinghton 3 Short (part of the Convertible) as a 2/3 too.
JRB has the Mount Washington 3 Convertible.
Wow, I want that postman too! He does not only bring you excellent gear, but buys it for you as well? :lol: Nice typo!:)
Welcome from the Netherlands!
Great to hear you're doing PV research! Later this year we plan to install PV and right now we are busy installing heat pipes. Can't wait to take a solar heated shower!
Welcome from the Netherlands!
Welcome from the Netherlands!
Everything is ordered! With wait time and customs (no experience how long customs take) I think a hangout somewhere in april should be possible :)
From Sweden it's actually a fast and dirt cheap...
Great to see another Dutch hanger here! Are you interested in a hangout in the Ardennes maybe? Welkom en groetjes
Welcome! Great to see a hammock in this part of the world!
I can't wait to get my WBBB out there once it has flown overseas! Let's hope the Ardennes will see a lot more European hangers at the...
As soon as we receive our gear, my boyfriend and I are interested in a hangout too. I think the beginning of march would be too soon for us, though. There is a thread on a Dutch/Belgian hangout as...
Definitely interested if we have our gear by then!
If we have our gear by then we are definitely interested! Ardennes would be great!
Thanks everybody for the warm welcome! Good to see there a more hangers in Europe out there!
Shug, thanks for the attempt at Dutch! :) I see that Google Translate has failed you, however. Opknoping...
Thanks for the input, Raul!
Hope you don't mind me quoting your review in this thread. Due to the skin condition of my boyfriend, ventilation was our main concern and therefore your review of the...
Thanks for all the advice!
The Yeti, MW3 Short and the Phoenix all seem to have their own advantages and are obviously all excellent products. To me it seems with the full length shockcord...
A lot has already been written about the Yeti and the Phoenix and both seem excellent, but for a newbies like us it's still difficult to choose. The Yeti is very tempting because of packability, but...
Hi everybody,
From early on I camped in a tent and loved it, especially in jungles. Nothing beats waking up to the sound of howler monkeys! About 3 years ago we wanted to upgrade to a lighter...
