No one has mentioned the Siberian Hitch, I have been using it for years. I learned to tie it from YouTube, works wonderfully. Takes about two seconds to tie and can be undone in the same amount of...
I have found that using my opposite hand index finger inside of the zing-it loop to put tension on the tarp / worm works better than pinching it between index finger and thumb. I use the upper third...
I have found with a proper taper, even the 1.75 lashit isn't to hard to deal with. I use the dritz loop turner, handles amsteel and the 2.2 lashit very easily. the 1.75 is very easy as well,...
I am sure you will get plenty of responses and replies here, but check out 2QZQ's underquilt protector. I use mine pretty much every season except summer, and will use it then too, when I am...
I see the general webbing and huggers, but where are the straps? Am I missing something.
naperica - I have seven sets of cinch buckles and every one of them is doubled through a larks head. (make a single larks head knot and then bring the free in through a second time) I have never...
Papa Smurf, did I understand you correctly when you said that you could change the direction of your lay by having another net or overcover made in the opposite direction? So if you had a left hand...
Just a silly quick question I can't find the answer for. Do the UQPs come with a stuff sack of some kind? I just haven't been able to find the answer anywhere.
I have the 11'er and my ridgeline is 109. I thought that one reason to have a fixed ridgeline was to have the same lay regardless of suspension. That being said, the ridgeline is fairly taught and...
Just received mine yesterday. I have made a fixed ridgeline at 9'1". Is that what you would recommend? That length of ridgeline seems to provide a lot of sag. Just curious as to your opinion....
I'm in, thanks!
Absolutely wonderful trail and in spots, if not careful, can really kick your butt. ROCKY.... but nothing better than falling back into those hammocks at 9:00 and sleeping to 5:30ish, until its...
Two great days out in the woods! Thunderbirds were wonderful to fall into in the PM. Great products Papa Smurf
Here are two OES tarps side by side. There is a MacCat Deluxe and 4 Season, with Thuderbirds underneath. Great trip on the Fiery Gizzard. The tarps are simply amazing, certain that you will enjoy...
Good, bad or indifferent - there were no crocs, alligators or camens. I believe some of the scoutING reports we had beforehand were very exaggerated. That being said, we did step in more ant hills...
Three Thunderbirds from Dream Hammock. All in a line. This is a picture that a friend of mine took on an island in the middle of Lake Nicaragua. Thanks Randy for such a great product and wonderful...
Brian - thanks for the speedy correspondence. I sent you another pm. Give it a look when you have a second.
Hey Brian, Shot you a PM. Give it a look when you have a second. Thank you for the communication and for wonderful equipment!
thanks for the post mountain_man_mike! what constitutes "beefy stakes"? This is exactly what we are trying to do, except to utilize several of the trees which are already there. We can get the...
Ok, so here is the deal and a little background. I have been asked to help plan for a trip. The trip is to build a church on a remote island in the middle of Lake Nicaragua. There are ~ 30 men...
I will get some this weekend. Working on the guy outs right now. Waiting on my line locks and shock cord to arrive. But I will put some others on and snap a few pics.
I just wanted to take a second and say one more time that I had a great experience with OES. Emailed Brian on Wednesday, heard back from him within 10 minutes, placed an order that same day. ...
I emailed Brian yesterday to inquire about a 4 season. He emailed me back within 10 minutes. I placed an order just after and received confirmation immediately. I woke up this morning with an...
