    Exclamation Attention Travel Hammock Reviewers. Please Read!!!

    This is a message, in reference to this thread, who is receiving a hammock from Chief Hammock Officer for review. I want to try and compile all of the individual reviews into one organized, easy to read review thread.

    If you are going to participate in the reviews of the Travel Hammocks I ask that you please chime in and let me know in this thread and I will put up a list of those participating .

    Reviews need to be submitted by Monday June 23, 08.

    I would also like to put up some basic guidelines for things that need to be addressed in each review submitted. This will help give the overall mass review continuity:

    1. Model of the hammock being tested (not all hammocks being tested are ATHH. I will be grouping hammock reviews by model)

    2. Any modifications made to the hammock for testing purposes (ridge lines, suspension mods, adding or removing something to the hammock, etc. Please include weight of modified hammock if possible) should be noted.

    3. Other gear used in testing (tarps, insulation, clothing, etc)

    4. Test conditions (place where tested, length of test period, weather conditions, wind speed, and temperature reading or approximations)

    Please be sure to give an honest review of the hammock including notes on construction, comfort, features, etc. EDIT: Make comparisons with past hammocks you have used, if possible.

    The Travel Hammock Co, represented by Chief Hammock Officer, has been quite generous in providing free-of-charge equipment for your review and consideration. At a minimum, we should take the time to write thorough and well-though-out comments.

    You may submit up to 5 pictures with your review. Not all pics will be used in the final compilation of the reviews.



    When you are finished with your review you can send it to me in a PM or , preferably, email it to me (headchangestudio (at) gmail (dot) com or click on my avatar). Please make email subject Travel Hammock Review and include your Hammock Forums user name in the email.

    I am doing this so everyones review can be seen and read in one place. Please refrain from posting individual reviews if possible.

    Not to be a pest but could reviewers also let me know if they have gotten their hammock and which model they will be testing?

    EDIT: Is the deadline going to work for everyone?
