Hey all,

I just picked up a pink GT single for my wife and it's in the mail. Do these hammocks have a end channel? I'm looking at replacing the stock rope and s-hooks with a continuous loop.

Thanks!

Yes they do.
My single came with a marine caradiner but I switched it out to whoopie slings.
For lounging around the yard, the stock suspension works really well.

Got this hammock for my wife and daughter awhile back. They do have end channels. The material is a little different for the pink, stretches some.

I received one of these as a replacement for my torn GT UL. I spent one night it in using my Big Agnes Lost Ranger Bag with insulated Mattress. It was under 32F. I was quite warm. The hammock is very roomy and I had one of the best night's sleep I have ever had.

I would recommend this hammock to anyone as an inexpensive durable backpacking hammock.

These have an end channel with some marine rope. I swapped out the marine rope with another marine rope (amsteel--whoopie sling) and their heavy beaners for some UL ones.
