Scrapple....they don't believe in such things much in Virginia. That's the one thing I miss about living in Delawhere...Scrapple everywhere.Originally Posted by raiffnuke
My favorite of Dutch's item? His house....we're paying for it.
favorite Dutch item WE can use? The whoopie hook. It may not be as flashy as the speed hook or as light as the Dutch hook (both of which I also love), but gosh dern it....it works every time.

I use the Dutch Clips (no threading of your tree strap needed), the Dutch Wasp (makes the tarp adjustment even easier than using the Flyz), and the Dutch Cinch Buckle (easiser to adjust than the stock WB cinch buckles) and love all of them!

I'm a fly fan. Very simple and effective.
First - my Big Carl Pack Hanger. I love this thing! The best $7 I ever spent.

Second - Whoopie Hooks -Dutch recommended installing on cont. loop's instead of on the whoopies. It's the perfect set-up for me - wet suspension always packs separate and hammock stays dry with the built-in drip stop.
(the customer service and included sarcasm are worth mentioning as well)

still a huge fan of the speed hook, looking forward to 2.0 version
I love how easy (and adjustable) it is to set up my tarp with a hook and flea, plus I have my big carl pack hanger and ridgeline extender made out of a hook and some zing-it.And the why? Not for Dutch, the hooks and fleaz

Speed hooks. I still use mine every night. They are just so gosh darn easy to use, and they've let me hang between trees that were too close together to use with whoopies.
I would say pack hanger but that's too easy.
I'd go with the wide variety of fabrics and hammocks, both always priced lower than anyone else.

I love my NylonD hammock the best. It's so comfortable.
