VIDEO: Part 4 Hammock How-To... Essentials for Noobs & What-Nots
Lets take a look at the Warbonnet BlackBird Hammock and all of the features ....... sweet.
Bug season is coming so bug-nets are covered.
Some folks asked about attaching suspension to the hammock so I can show you what I do. Learned from JustJeff's Site
A close up of the larkshead knot for suspension to the hammock.
A brief chat on hammock ridgelines ... what, why and what for.
A hammock song.
Some talking hands.
Other weirdness and hopefully some info.
Next .... we get into tarps for hammocks! .... coming as soon as I get some chores done.
I thankee for putting up with me..........

Awesome Video Shug. That is the best explanation IMHO of how to attach a woopie to the WBBB that ive seen. I get the larks head now and I love when that light bulb goes on in my head. After watching your video and looking at my WBBB I see how easy it is now and thing I might switch out the stock suspension. If I wanted, could I use the webbing that Brandon provided in his suspension system to make tree huggers? Thanks for the afternoon entertainment Shug, cant wait for number 5

Thank you very so much!
It was my DIY I was using but it is basically the same on the BB ..... just loosen the ridgeline by pulling it out a bit on the end outside of the BB ... Just watch how you do it and reverse the whole deal and pull the RL back in from the inside. Easier to do than to type about!
#5 may be a little bit .... tarps .... a whole new can of worms.

Shug, you should have been a teacher. Your class would have been a blast.
