    Video: Review of the REI Flash Hammock

    I finally found some time to edit the REI Flash review. Its a cool hammock that is worth a look. It has a lot of interesting features and would be perfect for kids and short people. I'm sure the Flash will bring many new folks into our hammock community. Let me know what you think.

    Great video and covered most of what I wanted to see. It appeared that you had your under quilt on backwards but the point was made none the less. Thanks for taking the time to do this video and sharing with us. PS I'm an REI fan as well. I just wish we had one closer.

    Ha!! I probably did. I haven’t used in an UQ in almost a year since I started using the 90 degree. Good catch TS.

    That’s a great question. I may keep it for the kids. It’s a good size for them

    Holy Moly Monster! Forget the hammock, what was that motorized uni-board thing you were traveling on? First time I've seen one of those

    Thanks for the review. Quite interesting, but I left bridge hammocks behind when I met a 90 degree. So, it really isn't the hammock for me. However, my hat off to REI for doing some R&D and coming up with their unique product and for including all the doo daws to make it work. Heck of a lot better than the Chinese tying a couple ropes to a hunk of nylon and throwing it on ebay.

    PS: I almost forgot. Yes it is ORANGE. That is because they know for sure Shug will be buying one for sure!

    It’s called a OneWheel. It’s super fun and even goes off-road.

    Thanks for taking the time to give so much detail in your review. While this probably isn’t the hammock for me, I’m seriously googling the OneWheel right now - that thing looks awesome.
