    Congrats on your first hang. Tell us how you liked it and tell us what worked and what you'd do differently, (if anything), next time.

    All the best !

    Nice spot for your set up.
    I have the same hammock, never had any complaints with it. It does what it's supposed to do.. Happy hanging Nokao.
