    OMG I never knew Kammock pioneered hammock camping! Now I know.

    lol yeah I liked that one too. It's really a good study in marketing. Take a product that's already around but make people think you've created something new and unique through hyperbole and advertising budget.

    This thread made me head over to the Kammok site and read up on some of their history. It all started in 2010. Nothing against Kammok, but I'm pretty sure dutch, scarecrow, and all you other guys on the forums were hanging back when the Kammock founder was still in diapers. I have read posts on this forum that are older than that entire company. I don't think you can be too revolutionary when your idea was thought up by someone else many moons before you thought of it. Interesting advertising, for sure. My 2 year old daughter prefers to call it "hamping" anyway.

    IIRC I live not too far from the HQ for Kammock. I almost want to go to their office, ask to speak to this CEO, walk in and say "No.......just no...."

    It's an Austin, TX paper touting an Austin, TX company. You can tell the Kammock folks invited her out for a hang and she did almost no research. Basically, it's a press release for them.

    OMG I want to rip my hair out after reading the last paragraph where they acknowledge the people they ripped off (ENO) as well as warbonnet that is MUCH higher quality and feature rich compared to these basic overpriced clones.
