    Hi from Saskatoon , Canada.

    Hi
    I've always been curious about sleeping in a hammock. Found myself in possession of an eno. Set it up in the basement. Attachment points were perfect for our mini climbing wall. Quite comfy. Haven't tried sleeping in it yet. Kids are enjoying it too. My daughter (16) tried sleeping in it last night but after drifting off and on for 1/2 hr found herself getting motion sickness. The others are wanting to give it a try. I'm sure I'm at the back of the line.

    I've had back surgery so in curious how it will go. We are avid campers and outdoors out in the bush types. We most if us lol, one daughter isn't as keen any more. So it should be interesting.

    Hi from Florida!
    This move should make your back very happy.
    It's very rare, but I have heard of people that are so extremely sensitive to motion sickness that they cannot tolerate a hammock.

    Just did an over nighter at home. Slept the night waking up a few times. Seemed I was up a lot but then again morning came fast. Weird feeling. Back feels okay. I used a swede army sleeping back. The type the has a hood and front zip. Left the zip open and a light blanket on top. Indoors but spring doesn't know that yet...-20 Celsius over night.
