Anybody seen these Hawk Nest hammocks?
I just got an ad FB about it.

no center stand I see so just put the bike it first gear?
You can use these that attach to the quilt and have a side that attaches to the mattress /hammock and snaps together up when you want. My older T-Rest quilt has the snaps already installed and just...
Good explanation Tikker!
Do you know if it is an XL that is pictured by any chance?
edit: OK I do see at the bottom of your pic that it is an XL
So that's good, it just clears the spreader bars, It was mentioned that...
I read somewhere that even though the hammock they offer looks like a Haven, when it's finally delivered it's just a cheap gathered end hammock.
Thanks for the detailed video.
Sad to see some of the QC issues and the single zip is kind of dumb, how much extra would it be to use a double one initially.
Still I'm thinking of buying one...
Hammock is sold
This is the newest version with the side windows in the Camper Sleeve. This new version doesn't have the different components like optional mesh sleeve as before just the Camper Sleeve that's meant...
just as an example .. last Friday I posted a WTB on a motorcycle site. Immediately I got a private message from a guy who says "my friend is selling one of those, here's his email address.
I email...
What I'm concerned about are the upper 30" spreader bars contacting the legs and how far apart the legs would have to be so it all clears. 30" spreaders maybe 2' down from the suspension line leaves...
Any thoughts on how the Tensa would work with the new 30" wide Haven tent XL that's coming out? Anyone used the regular Haven and noticed how much room there would be for a wider version?
I'm...
I'll give that a try but the legs of the Tensa might still make it more difficult .. we'll see.
BTW love the colors of the camo material of the hammock.
I'm trying to master the in/out while the hammock is on the Tensa stand with the legs always seeming to be in the way. Houdini would be proud.
Does any other website run that way? Seems odd to me and I buy a lot online, is it just me who can't figure it out??
If I go here http://camphammocks.com/ it shows me a US price the only way it...
I open the website and it shows it's a US site at the top and the price is $299
So is that US or CDN money, is that tax included or excluded? Never seen a website with so much unclear information.
Ah, thanks .. so even if they don't ship to Canada and the .ca website isn't working it still converts to CDN$ if I open it from Canada.
Guess I was asking too much lol
that's what I'm not sure about, when I used to go to their website it knew I was in Canada and showed Canadian dollar pricing but since they don't ship to Canada (for some really strange reason) the...
a guy was looking for one for sale so I gave a price and was told I'm too expensive as they are $219 new
I was told the XL is available for $219 plus the pad for $100 but when I go to their website it's showing $300 plus the pad for another $123.
3 have been sold so I'll close this thread .. and open a new one as I still have some cans left
2 sold and shipped
The Holy Grail for ultralight hikers, canoeists etc etc who use them for pots with an alcohol stove.
Lots of info on the interweb ...

"I will measure the distance between trees, or total distance between ends of suspension."
I'm interested as well to see if it will work on the Tensa4 stand. The RR looked too long to work without...
Thanks for the Antarctica video and the company name in England, I ordered one today.
Thanks for the write-up!
So let's see if I'm correct here as I'm not familiar with all the Snugpak terminology of different pads etc etc. The mat is wider than the pad you were using. You laid the...
I'm very curious how this would work on top of the pad in my Amok XL to reduce / stop condensation on my back. Please do post your thoughts when you have a chance to try it out.
Found a bit of a...
Looks great, Im really looking forward to getting the Tensa and Amok XL packed on the bike for some trips this year. If everything works out maybe even Alaska and Tuktoyaktuk! I need to fill in those...
post pics of your snakeskins when you are done, might be great for more stealth style camping
I can't sew so it would be nice if Amok made a winter cover as an option.
One of the benefits pf my chrysalis bridge hammock is the waterproof sleeve / cover that has vents with stiffeners to...
there's always the Big Agnes Sleeping giant memory foam pad but I find it gets cold and takes a lot to heat up
that's why I was looking for 'perforated' ccf pads
Like a large pad made of this ....

if the SLD hybrid is available I'm interested
OK I got an Amok XL that needs a pad for structure and I'm getting the dreaded condensation I hate. I've been thinking about a perforated ccf type pad maybe 1/2" thick to put on top of the pad which...
I use the Amok ridge line, works well, and the Tensa baseline ... so far ...might cut it to a length I like and then it'll be a quick setup.
30 nights in a row in my WBBB in the basement and I couldn't sleep through the night at all. Got a bridge hammock and after a couple of nights I could get 8 solid hours in. Maybe try a different...
Well I just woke up from my second night in the Dramur XL setup in my garage on the Tensa stand.
Man I love both of these things!! A match made in Hammock Heaven!!!
I've spent years fiddling...
I'm in my garage in the process of setting up my new XL on my new Tensa stand. Haven't got fastened down to the floor yet but I'm excited, the whole outfit looks great!
Hmmm, a couple of months ago the stitching on my newer type suspension strap on a Chrysalis bridge hammock gave out at 2:30AM and I landed on the family room floor. Surprise! I just layed there for a...
that's good news, I really want the combo but was very hesitant about it working well together in spite of Shug's video.
this is a great idea, when I travel to a friends I hang in the basement but hanging from the ceiling joists makes the suspension very long and the hammock doesn't hang properly.
Besides you and I...
just watched your video and lo and behold it IS called a slip toggle after all :lol:
I've got about 60 nights in a Cloudview sleeping indoors since my other bridge got kind of worn out.
It's made with the head end higher so you can look around easily when outside so the foot...
to me if the small holes one would have to make in a CCF pad to reduce condensation render it poor for insulation then the Klymit pad would be useless
a few years ago I searched for perforated CCF to make a pad out of thinking that would reduce condensation but still have some R-value. Couldn't find anything that I thought would work but there was...
yup, if you find them sign me up for a dozen as well.
I found some a Princess Auto ... Canada's version of Harbor Freight ... and they are $4.99 CDN each. Still not bad and I'll probably get some...
OK got it ... it's a Tiggle ... I had to google it btw :)
personally I like that idea with a stopper 6 or so inches in, pass the lines through each post without need to do any looping and...
seemed like a good enough name :)
... so what IS it called?
In my absent mindedness I seem to remember a video you (?) did with new short cord that had a ball on one end and a slip toggle on the other end. I think it was for the top connection. What I'm...
