    Not sure if you pulled the trigger yet. But I hike those areas and am comfortable with the synthetic Jarbridge 3/4 length under quilt. It is on sale right now at arrowhead equipment. I cut up a down...

    I bought it used but believe that it is the Asym. At least the tarp is in fact asymmetrical like my hammock. i.e. side guy lines are offset from each other.

    I was reading other threads that stated...

    I have a Hennesy hammock & tarp. I plan to use the hennesy tarp for a while but want to attach it to trees. I was looking at Arrowhead's ridgeline kits but am not sure if the single or double would...

    Is 40 inches wide enough

    I'm wanting to get my first top quilt and this seems like a good deal.
    I'm 205, 38 inch waist. shirt is between large & xl. Would 40 inch's be enough coverage for me?

    that is correct. there was no hardware in between the spectra and tree strap.

    i may have done some of the sawing even before getting into the hammock, i.e. setting it up. It's not a simple thing...

    weaver - lol nice video. if only he had some enthusiasm! So jrb is even simpler by adding the biner near the hammock it allows separation from hammock and also you don't need the toggle and knot.

    No Knott suspension choices

    I want simplicity, so it looks like strap suspension connected with rings at the hammock or whoopie slings (jrb's setup looked nice).

    The pro's and cons are simplicity vs. weight savings.

    Are...

    I gathered that HH lightweight models use Spectra. I have used Amsteel in another hammock (Enos) to attach descender rings. The good news that I think you are saying is that unlike Spectra, Amsteel...

    Thanks for all the replys.

    lymphocytosis - I got the hammock from a third party. While the straps were still in new condition, the original owner did say that she made one of the straps. Maybe I...

    Boothill - definitely could have been something I did wrong. It was my first hang of the Hennessey. I thought unlike most hammocks, the HH was supposed to be taunt (not 30 degrees). So that may have...

    Suspension Choices for HH

    My first trip out with my Hennessy landed my but on the ground. The suspension cord cut through the loop on the tree hugger strap (I'm 205).

    I had already ordered descender rings and carabiners...
