Nice video/review. It looks like it's very well made.

As always a mighty good review Shugrow ... mighty good. Kinda one those fidgety contraptions but looks pretty dang comfortable! Thanks for putting that together in a review pal. Always up for a fine piece of Shug video!

Thanks for the review. Glad you pointed out the height limitations. Seems like I will have to wait for an XL version at 6'4". Keep up the good work.
Very slick. Thank goodness I'm 6'4" so I wont be tempted! Great review as usual.
Nice review. I think it's out of my league regarding weight; none too keen on the pad either, and it costs a purty penny once you add tarp, hammock and pad. I'll bet some folks will enjoy it, though!

Y'elcome. Happy to mess with it.
It really did not the night I slept out in it.....not enough to notice anyways. I'll be messing more with it.
Yessir....glad to show it.
It is a different beast. Many seem negative towards it but once you try one you kinda get intrigued with it. Like driving a Bently.
This one is the BeanStalker.....
Yes, a bit loggy but oh so much fun to ride in. It won me over. Perfecto for Paddling. I will tote it for sure.
Thanks WV. I am getting to know it and having fun with it. A total different way to hammock...as you well know.
I approached it with an open mind....did not want to like it. But it got to me. Really though, it is truly a different experience from other hammocks and I look forward to more time in it.
It is VERY well made. Hefty and unique.
Not as fidgity as it seems...it makes sense once you mess with it a bit. It is the crossbow to the compound bow, the mukluk to the down bootie.
I think in the future they try to get a longer one made...according to their FB page.
Youd be fine for sitting and lounging but a comfy sleep would be a bit tight.
Well.....if you break it down and do some crunching it is not off from some other more high end hammock set ups.
I do think there are many who will enjoy it as I am so far. It makes me smile and sigh a contented sigh sitting up reclining. The weight will be a deal breaker for many. I though so too but after messing with it I am planning trips around it. Shorter miles to some good areas. Heck, even less food to equalize the weight!

Wow. That is innovative. It looks like it could be the future of hammocks. Just need to get that weight down!
