    Build a suspension

    I have added a "build your own" suspension kits to my site. You get to completely customize your suspension. Want shorter straps, red whoopie on the head with a blue continuous loop... No problem
    Also as you make different selections the price and the weight is displayed. There are Hennessy and non- Hennessy suspensions

    That's pretty cool. Did you have one of those "why didn't do this sooner?" Moments or have you been thinking about doing this for a while and just now been able to do it?

    Very nice!

    Loving the new site, BTW. Couldn't resist and had to place (yet another) order of Dutchware. Those ridgeline biners, etc. are just too useful!

    It isn't exactly like I envisioned it, but when I tried to explain exactly what I wanted, they just kept staring at me blankly. So I scaled it back, But it does what I want, it gives people the options to make it like they want. It's kind of like going to subway and ordering a suspension only I would remove the stems of the hot peppers. I hate it when they leave them on.

    Dutch, you should have had them lay in a hammock while you explained it to them. Then, all would have made sense!

    LOL. Well said. Come to Subway up in Canada. No stems on the hot peppers I've ever seen.

    Pretty cool Dutch, very nice addition to the new website looking good my friend looking good.
    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.

    Thats awesome bud, seems like a great idea. Although I have a question, what happened to the link? I clicked on it and it said "Oops we were unable to find what you were looking for, page not found".
