    Hi from Ottawa, Canada.

    Just joined. I currently have a HH Expedition. I like it but think that some modifications would make it better. Maybe with the help from Hammock Forums i"ll be able to make one of my own.

    Cheers, Rob

    Welcome to the forum Rob. Check out 2QZQ for zipper modding your hennessy hammock, a very worthwhile mod.

    Welcome to the forum Rob. The ranks of the Ontario Hammock Hangers are growing all the time. The is a group hang at Algonquin Provincial Park the first weekend of October. It is a canoe trip doing a tour over several lakes in the 3 days. Check it out.

    As for modding your Expedition hammock the most common mods are swapping out the suspension and if your hammock doesn't already have a zipper for side entry then doing as mbiraman suggests and sending it to 2QZQ for a zipper mod is the other most common mod of a Hennessey hammock.

    Cheers

    Brian

    Welcome from the east coast.

    I've swapped my stock suspension out for whoopies and sent it to Tim & Donna this past winter for 2QZQ mod #4.
