I am fortunate to have one of WV’s PBH (insulated) I can say this hammock is an extremely comfortable bridge. I would attribute this partly to the ridge design under yours knees which totally...
Thanks for the review. Just received mine today, can’t wait to test it. Top notch construction and fits perfectly. Wow this has a lot of down in it.

With the 6 foot poles inserted 6 inches it’s 11.3 feet. I drop the head end in an additional 8 inches to get the foot end higher its 10.8 feet.
Can change pole length, the angle or the horizontal...
I made a jack stand for it, was thinking I would need it to be solid but after putting the bolts in it doesn’t sway any. Got a friend who is a mechanical engineer maybe he can do some load...
Thanks for the kind comments.

The Hammock is a chameleon and tarp a super fly.

Didn’t take pictures but as able to set up on the floor and anchor to a bed post. Was a bit tight but no walls were harmed[emoji3]

My first hotel hang, [emoji106]. Really enjoying the stand, well worth the price, light weight and compact.

I’ve been looking at some ball and socket joints as connectors for the bottom connectors or maybe a U-joint. I just haven’t had a chance to try them out yet.

Has suspension just like the under quilt, adjust as needed to fit lightly against the under quilt
One thing that was damaged at this hang was my waist line. Way too much good food! Great time thanks to WV for organizing [emoji106]

I see now I didn't see this was for a tarp.
I was trying the hook on the ridge line of the hammock so I could make it removable. I've used them on the tarp with no issues.
For what it's worth I used a Dutch hook to attach my ridge line. I attached it to my dyna glide suspension. The hook cut thru the dyna glide and dropped me.
The ridge line was pretty tight as I...
Temperature rating and weight. Thanks
#2 pick. Rain skirt. Thanks
Wahoo thanks, so many good items to choose from and very generous. I await lxzndr to make the first choice.
Thanks to the dynamic duo Dutch and Derek. Your Contribution to the activity Is appreciated
Count me and thanks very generous
Well for grins I decided to head to the woods and just time it (reason #999 for me to hit the trees[emoji1]). Anyway 6:24 to set up tarp, 3:48 to set hammock and adjust a bit, :45 to set under...
Will a 1.0 nylon D single later be added to the list or just special order.
How goes the testing patiently holding off ordering other stuff so I can include this too.
A couple things that affect things, distance between trees,how high up the trees you connect your suspension. The calculator can give you a feel for these. In the woods just step off the distance...
Suspension should be at a 30 deg angle. This may help
http://theultimatehang.com/hammock-hang-calculator/
Your ridge line should be around 83% of your hammock length. If you are set at that and have sag in the ridge line you need to adjust your suspension tighter to reduce the sag in the hammock (the...
In a campground near a road pack it up and lock in car. In a wilderness area if can't be seen from trail I leave it set up. If can be seen pack it up and stash out of sight.
I like mine it packs small and lightweight. I use it with a 10 foot hammock and its my goto tarp for anything above 40 deg outings. You can pitch low to block wind/rain but this does limit space. I...
My Pockets getting lighter today too.
Under quilt. Elevated my comfort almost as much as the hammock itself.
Factor in your sleep clothes also, I'm a fairly warm sleeper but almost always sleep in a wool base layer. I usually don't pull the top quilt on until the temps drop to the 60-65 deg range during the...
I'm in. Thanks
My first few hammock overnights were in a net hammock using a 20 deg synthetic sleeping bag. Lows around 50 still cold on bottom and backside looked like a checkerboard. Pretty uncomfortable too.
Camped along a river sandy ground. Found coyote tracks all around and under hammock the next mirning, scared I sleep so sound can only imagine what's been around me in the woods.
Does any vendor make a double ended stuff sack with a pocket on outside to store suspension components. If not hint hint.
Thanks WV sounds really good. I know no spreadsheet. I'll bring potato salad enough for 10 people.
Planning to be there. What trail are you planning in the Cranberry?
Yes camping along the cranberry river is legal. A portion of the river is accessible by vehicle and there are designated camp sites for this area. In the areas designated as backcountry and...

I'd recommend a UQP that doubles as a parachute! Pretty amazing.
