"the Eureka! Chrysalis has a patented design"
I wonder what sort of remarkable claims Eureka! are making in their patent(s) and whether they will get into a contest with JRB or did JRB license the design to Eureka?

i just searched the most recently published applications and the eureka design is not there.
They said it was patented.... did they say they owned the patent?
I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

yeah, i wonder if anyone could cite a bridge hammock as a patented design? since it would be based on the expired bridge patent.
I thought for a while about making a cover like this hammock has, rather than using a tarp. My idea was much like this one but I decided not to make it. Two major drawbacks that I see - dealing with the condensation, and not having a place to cook or do chores out of the rain like you can in a one person tent. Easy enough under a hammock tarp...but not in a cover like this.
In the end, it would have weighed as much or more as a tarp. The minor gain in convenience of not having to set up a tarp is quickly outweighed by the disadvantages.
Add to that being able to set up the tarp w/o hammock...for lunch or rest stops...and it's just not worth it IMO.

IMPOSSIBLE JUST TAKES LONGER
looks to me like they photoshoped out either 4 or 6 stakes. so i doubt it's even that much faster to set up than a tarp, and with no protected ground space at all.
