I just discovered a video by Derek Hansen that covers this topic.

It's still 80F here....and its almost 1am. Schwetty schtuff.

I changed mine out to whoopie slings/tree hugger combo sent to me by opie. Can't go wrong with that. For my tarp I have recently went with the "over the tarp ridgeline with prussiks" configuration....

Thanks for the reassurance....i just let it all hang out and tested it...success! I will have to dial in tree spacing I suppose.....Thank you. This concludes the unscheduled freak out.
Oh...

I have done that but want confirmation that I'm heading in the right direction before I test hang weight (me) in it tonite....don't want a catastrophic failure or anything.

I'm lost. Or maybe I am just thick. I watched Opie's video on putting a whoopie sling thru the channel on a hammock.....but mine is a little different. I believe he is on vacation and I need to...

Opie, I am open to ideas....i want a quick, adjustable hang, without getting wet from wicking webbing.....I purchased the claytor jungle hammock and just have not had the time to get it right....i...

It seems I am kind of behind the eight ball on a replacement suspension system for hanging this claytor jungle hammock. I am going to be camped out wed-sunday at a music festival and need a quick...

Didn't have as much time as i wanted to give it a shot today. I keep finding stuff as I go deeper in the contents of the small stuff sack. Tarp guylines.....check. Webbing.....threaded through the...

I just received the hammock ...ordered Saturday...paid the rush shipping and got it Friday...
and tarp rolled up REALLY small. Thought they didn't put the tarp in at first! :scared:

Now to set...

Howdy from the south side.

Yes I did go with the Diamond tarp combo. Hopefully the sunshine will prevail and we can call it more cool than cold in April. As long as I stay dry I will be golden. I have been reading up on how...

Looking forward to experimenting with it. Will it be necessary to do any extra waterproofing to this fly or hammock when it arrives?

Ok, so I just ordered my Claytor JH with a 5 day ship option.

What else do I need to go ahead and get? Snake Skins, Whoopie slings, rings, biners and things....

I need this thing ready to rock...

If you ever go back into Wooly Swamp you better not go at night :scared:

My dad grew up in Hartwell. I know right where ya are at.

Yep, I saw a mosquito down here the other day ...it had on a leather jacket and had a tattoo that said "Mother."

You might know something I don't..... I went to that link and they have it for 20 bucks and in my cart it says its in stock....

Just a quick note to everyone here to say how impressed this hammock noob is with the layout and the content of this site. I was hooked for sure when I saw someone post an AWK program to calculate...

Let me start by saying I am a hammock noob trying to figure out the best one to purchase for my use....

I am looking hard at the jungle hammock by claytor. I have read somewhere the wonders of...

Specifically, I am in Waycross, GA.

Is this the prodigy 10.0?

Thanks for the warm welcomes. Hope to be hanging around more.
