I agree! If it was only for the fact that Shug's video's make me laugh :lol:

Hi guys,

Here's a short review of a custom down UQ from Unsponsored.

Length: 190 cm
Rating: 3/4 season.
Inner material: black Pertex 4
Outer material: green ripstop Pertex with breathable...

Got my custom unsponsored UQ in last week, excellent stuff at a decent price.
Mine's 3/4 season and 200 cm long, packs up to a 1,5 galia melon - but lighter :rolleyes:.

Since Dutch and UK...

Hi Andy,

The webbing loops are particularly useful when you use the UQ with a HH or other assymmetrical hammock. Attach the loops to the tie-out points to offset the UQ a bit so it follows the...

Offtopic: is this the first time in Recorded Hammocking History that someone's going from WBBB to HH in stead of the other way around?? ;-))

Hey unsponsored, nice to see you here too!

Hey Hugo,

The non-structural ridgeline is a really good idea! I knew the "fold the sides over" technique, my brother even has a small carabiner sewn in to easily fold it over and attach to the bag...

Didn't mention it, but with a 1-line tryout they skewed on me too. Because you make a loop at the end, you have to make a multiple loop prussik to fill up the gap as you said. And it's very difficult...

Hey guys,

I would have responded earlier, since I'm subscribed to thiss thread. Just never got any notification until today. (???)

To answer your questions:
I did this to be able to use...

Is use my HH with a Snugpak underblanket (=underquilt), works for me but I have a zipper in the netting so I can get in from the top.

Quick question for thos who know:

Hi Hammockhero,

I ordered the camo XL hammock some time ago, it was delivered in 5 days! :)

My question: Why are the sides put on seperately? Couldn't the hammock be made of 1 big piece of...

I have a double and find it easier to lie in it diagonally because there's more fabric.

(But it can't beat my HH.)

Hi all, I'm still mostly lurking and whenever I return from a trip I keep thinking up ideas to make my setup better.

So here's an idea I came up with: I wanted to replace the original lines with...

Yep, certainly pick a small but strong biner, maybe a stainless from a sailing shop or something.

I used a small biner (from a keychain), and I pulled it right open when I tightened the HH during...

Get a zipper mod ;-)

But seriously: the shock cords allow for the blanket to be pushed to the side so you can crawl in. Then it partially springs back to it's original position, but you still have...

I use this setup:

On one end of the tree hugger, I permanently attach this kind of biner to the loop:

Works fine with my HH. It is just really important to find out how much tension there should be on the shock cords.

Too tight = insulation is being pushed up (compressed) to your body too hard =...

OK, I've found some pictures of the Blackbird. Especially the one from Warbonnet's site, with the lady in it, second picture: looks like she was cut off below the knees.

Hi guys, thanks for the quick replies!

@NCPatrick:
Yep, saw that thread, also saw the retail price it is expected to have.....€ 200,-!

@titanium_hiker
Yeah, the cost is spread......and if...

Hi there,

I've been a lurker here but learned a LOT, it's given me great info on all kinds of details on hammocking. Thanks!

I own a HH Explorer Deluxe. I like it but also dislike it. To make...

Moderator can close this one - got one off ebay.

@Lost: Unfortunately no...

@Oldsoldier: that's an Expedition right? I want the Explorer...

Looking for a Hennessy Explorer Deluxe Asym (pref. newest type) + Snake Skins.

...and, if it happens, maybe and underquilt would be nice too. Let me know!

After checking with HH, this hammock will be to small for me, so I'm backing out.

Interested: PM sent!
