good to know. I just set my tarp up in the backyard. I didn't get a good full pitch because I'm hanging in the corner of a fence, so I'm not really able to crank down the tieouts. Even thought I...
Haha, well i'm wondering if the fig. 9's on the ridgeline cause me to overtighten it before I tie out the guylines. Do you use fig. 9's on your tarp?
Ya I'm wondering now if it might be that I'm in the humid south (ATL) and the humidity is increasing as spring is here. Also I think the couple times I set it up it had rained so the ground was wet...
Awesome, I really like using the knots, there very versatile. Glad to hear they work for you.;)
I got my spinn deluxe a couple weeks ago. I had brian add 4 more tieouts (2 extra on each side). I've set it up multiple times and I have been very pleased with it, it gave me so much more room than...
I use the taut line hitch on my maccat's guyouts. I have had success with this knot so far and there has been zero slippage with the speer's no-tangle line. I leave the knot intact when i pack the...
Thanks for the advice Pan, I'm going to re-rig the hammock tonight and try again. The lows tonight are looking to be right around 30 degrees. I really like the underquilt, before I got it, I would...
AARRGGHH!! I wanted these for a christmas present, but they've been sold out for a while!!!!!!!!! :scared:

Yep they sure do. I got a thermawrap jacket for $84! I got it as an early christmas present, but I can't wear it until then :(. Just looked at JRB's website and they have mark down's on alot of their...
Last night I found out how to tie the taut line hitch. I read it is a friction knot and tried pulling on it to get it to slip, but it seemed to hold tight. I have yet to try it out on my tarp but I...
Hey everyone,
Well I think I've decided on getting the JRB No Sniveller as my underquilt and the Western Mountaineering Summerlite (full Zip) as my top quilt. This is looking like the most...
The new website looks awesome Brian! I think it will help bring in new customers for you.
Thanks Smee. Your products sounds great. I can't wait to try them out! So Trail Days will be going on sometime mid May in 2009?
Man I wish the MSRP was still $395! Have they added to the quality of the quilts or have they just upped the prices the past year or two?
Thanks for the welcome Slowhike! HF has been a great resource for hiking with my hammock.
Thanks for the heads up on nest sale Gadgeteer.
Can anyone speak from experience about the JRB...
Hey everyone I was just wondering if anyone knew when/if JRB has their sales during the year. Right now I'm interested in the no sniveller or possibly the 3 season quilt set. However the prices are a...
