    First full night in a hammock

    Hej everyone

    Mike here, coming all the way from a rainy Sweden. So recently moved in with a flat mate and seeing as space is limited decided to put up my hammock and give it a try instead of the bed.....

    Finally got it set up, not hundred percent happy with the spacing and angle, but will try it out, and maybe look at geting à stand?

    Any I'll attach a pic, any thoughts or suggestions from you guys in the know?

    Best regards

    You should put a ridge line on your hammock. Check out theultimatehang.com. They have a calculator to tell you how long your ridge line should be in order to get the correct hang angle.

    As Reubster24 said, add a ridgeline. It makes a world of difference. Here's that calculator: http://theultimatehang.com/hammock-hang-calculator/
    Hang the good hang.
