That's great news! Was hoping to order before spring at least but before xmas is a bonus!

Has anyone heard when Warbonnet is going to be back in business fully? I've so much I want to order but every time I try to process the site wont allow my selections because they are out of this or...

Thanks very much!

Brian, where do you buy your Amsteel here?

Did you find out what went wrong with the whoopie?

Great video! That dude is going to need a chiropractor! Thanks for that.

Just tried that - works great!

I mean the knot that makes the loop that you use for the lark's head. Dang! I just realised I didn't need to cut that loop off in the first place!

Thanks, pulling up the hammock did the trick. I found that if I also hold the tail with the hand that is holding the hammock the other hand can slide the bury quite easily.

Now loosening the...

So I gave whoopies a try and I'm already thinking of going back. I know, fickle. Anyway, if one wanted to do that, what is the knot for tying the cinch buckles back on the Blackbird? Or, is there a...

A question for you whoopie sling experts. How do you make adjustments when you've got a bit of a load in your hammock? I don't mean when a person is in there, but when all your gear is?

I set...

Thanks guys - feel much better now!

I'm still a little uneasy about that marlin spike hitch but I managed to sleep last night. I did take it easy on the rocking and moving around, worried that...

If so I'd like to hear about it. I think it would make me feel better.

I just hooked up a whoopie sling for the first time and tried putting the marlin spike in the strap. I've gotta warn you;...

I had a good laugh at around 7mins in. You are talking about what leaves you use for a BIFF and then you cut to a ground shot and you are feeling around with your hand, saying "you can't even tell...

Usually some sort of weight/cardio type of workout on a regular basis. I shoot for an hour a day but don't feel bad if I miss a day here and there - life is busy. Lately I've been doing P90X. ...

If Canada becomes a state before this sells then I'll take it!

I like that idea. A little extra protection was what I was trying to accomplish in my feeble way, and doing up the jacket makes much more sense. Perhaps I'll use a clip or something to keep in place...

Lots of good suggestions there guys, thanks a lot. I'm going to have to look into the continuous ridgeline idea. Sounds nice to have an option for drying other gear when it is still raining.

We were out this weekend hammocking in the constant rain. Managed to stay dry and had a good time however I ran into one small problem and I'm just looking for different ideas to deal with it.
...

I can imagine how you must feel ... because an email I just got says mine is on it's way too!

Oh, I see, first you invite me out into the piney woods and now you don't want me to tell anyone! My parents warned me about you :lol:

I'm going to search through the trip reports and if I see any...

Hmm, going out in the woods with a bunch of strangers found on the internet. Sounds like fun! Count me in for at least one night. Could do either.

Thanks Shane. That's nice that you don't need those extras. I checked and according to Hennessy they use this on the Hyperlite:

"Suspending ropes: 1200 lb. test Spectra reinforced ropes with...

Whoopie slings look great but is it necessary to have rings, and clips/biners?

I don't want to increase my set up weight if I don't have to.

Also wondering; are the slings themselves heavier...

Greetings fellow hammockers!

Hammocking and camping have been two of my favourite things to do for years. I just never thought of putting the two together! Being mostly a stomach sleeper I just...
