This is dumb, I know...However there are so many really creative people on this site.
I have a heart condition, I can not use my arms over my head except for a couple of minutes at a time. I can not work the lines with my HH. I tried whoopie slings, but I had too much trouble getting everything lined up. Things like distances between trees, trying to work where on tree is on higher ground than the other tree. Most of the time the the trees are too close together. I am also having problems, because I can not risk falling since there seems to frequently be a big rock or stump under where I want to hang my hammock, I have to be sure the hammock does not drop suddenly. I had my stock HH slip last night for the first time. No damage this time, I was up high enough that I did not hit the ground.
I wanted to leave the suspension stock, for my daughter to use, however, I have to do something different for my use, I do not like having to have someone else hang the hammock for me. Plus I can not get Hennessy's knots untied, especially when they are wet, which is most of the time.
I read through the prior posts, so many ideas, I really do not know which will allow me to get the hammock up with my arms over my head for the shortest period of time. Oh ya, I am short 61.5 inches.
Thank you in advance for constructive input.
