Sorry, I can't offer any useful suggestions either. I have a TX 250 and I use the Vertex tarp with it usually, or sometimes I use the smaller "XL" tarp that came with it.

Bumping, with a price reduction. I paid $228.74 for this brand new, including shipping. Now asking $190.
Bumping. New River still looking for a new home. :D
UQP Sold, thanks Ratdog!
KAQ New River UQ still up for grabs.
Already done. I will resend, maybe you didn't receive it?
UQP going to Ratdog, pending receipt of funds.
New River 4 season Apex UQ still up for grabs!
From their website: The protectors have shockcorded side adjusters to snug up the protector to the underquilt.
Each end has ample shockcording to attach to the hammock suspension. UQP’s measure 106”...
Well, sadly my husband has decided to return to tent camping :eek:
Up for grabs is his brand new Kick *** Quilt New River UQ. This was just purchased over the holidays and has been used once in...
SOLD to Dutch! Payment received. Thank you! :)
Going to Dutch pending receipt of funds. Thanks Dutch! :)
Thanks! :D
Thanks Meekin! :)
Thanks for the mention, Meekin! :)
Dutch, if you are still interested, I've got a like new Vertex on the forum for $495 without a tarp, including CONUS UPS ground shipping.
Yeah, it is bad timing, I understand. That is why I priced it so nicely. I need the funds so I can spread some Yuletide cheer and still afford car repairs. ;)
If I don't get any takers, I will PM...
Clark Vertex 2-person Hammock
This does not include the tarp. This sale does include the double Hammock, stock suspension, original paperwork/instructions, and drip rings. The color is green.

My husband weighs around 265lbs and we have hanging points in our living room, bedroom, and family room. We used heavy duty eye bolts. So far no problems.
+1 I'm newer here and haven't seen the seasons change yet on the forum, but what he said just makes sense.
What she said. True story.
Everything is a trade off in one way or another when it comes to gear choices, it seems; the Vertex is no different. Like Cali said, I do really like sharing the same...
Welcome from another "Mrs" and fellow Ohioan. :) My hubby is the forum lurker in our marriage. :D
We just bought one recently, but the verdict is still out. Hubby loves it. I don't think it is anywhere near as comfortable as my Clark TX-250, but we are still in the stages of experimenting with...
Thanks. We have hanging points in our living room and family room now as well. :D
Got the shipping confirmation in hubby's email yesterday. Woohoo. :D
:D I picked mine up on the sale forum, but it was still more than a couple of pretty pennies. Totally worth it though. :boggle:
You are right, it never ends. There is always something to try out...
Ha ha! Too funny! :laugh:
In the Clark, I don't have to lay as much on a diagonal to get flat for some reason. When I am laying on my left side, my head is usually to the left and my feet to the right. But when I am laying on...
:lol:
It was on sale 15% off just recently. Congrats on the wife's GAS. My husband and I are just recovering from a bout. It is dangerous when both partners share it. Not good for the bank account...
Welcome to the forums from Dayton! :)
Check out this subforum (https://www.hammockforums.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=114 )for postings about local group hangs. I attended my first one back in...
This illustrates just how uniquely individual hammock comfort is. I find that the more I "sink in" to a material, the more uncomfortable it is for side sleeping. For me, I've discovered that I prefer...
I found it very difficult to side sleep comfortably in the WBBB and ENO DN. I just could not get comfortable. It was a little more doable/comfortable in the WBBB, but still not completely ideal. I...
Okay, just had to share my excitement with some folks who will understand. :D The hubby and I took advantage of the recent sale at Clark to try out the 2-person Vertex. It is on the truck and out for...
Okay, thanks so much for the information. I know you guys are swamped right now! :) My order is right about at the 8+ business day time frame, so it probably will be shipping soon, if it hasn't...
I am just curious if Arrowhead sends out email confirmations after you place an order and/or tracking information once they ship? I placed an order about 2 weeks ago and haven't heard anything yet,...
You summed it up quite nicely there! :)
True, it is totally not a solely feminine attribute. :D
I've had some people assume though, because my picture clues that I'm female, that my name must be Hope and I am making reference to being...
Another female here chiming in. I think it is pretty obvious from my name and pic as to my gender, but I understand that it is not always so easy to determine the gender of someone. I personally...
I'm intrigued by the pod idea, but really, for me, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I will stick with my sleeping bag, for now. I love using a mummy-style sleeping bag. Versatile enough to use as a...
I typically use my sleeping bag and/or liner like top quilts, but lately I've found that in colder temps I like to zip up in the bag to keep drafts out. I experimented just recently using the bag as...
I'm curious to see the responses to your question...
Congrats on your purchase! Enjoy! :)
To me, an over cover is totally worth the trouble. It helps me retain heat. I love having my little protected shelter full of warmth, even if there is some condensation build up. To each their own....
I will do this. Better yet, I will have my husband check for the gap, so that I'm not moving around and changing my position while reaching to check (I have relatively short arms :laugh:). Not sure...
Well, I already have an awesome HG UQ, so I don't really need it to serve that purpose. I currently use my woobie as a TQ and occasionally as a sleeping bag liner. My feet slip out the end of the...
+1 My husband is constantly drooling over Kryptek. Agree completely with everything written above. A tarp and/or UQP made out of Kryptek would be worth their weight in gold. We would pay a higher...
Ah, got it.
Okay, will do. Thank you! :)
You can use a full length UQ with a NX, you just cover up all the pockets, no big deal really. My full length UQ covers the pockets that are on my TX. I chose the TX because I also camp/hike during...
Yes, very similar to the Dream Hammock overcover. The only difference is the zipper placement. My top cover zips into the bugnet, which then zips into the hammock. I have a Clark TX-250.
Got...
Excellent. Just the info I was looking for. Thanks.
Okay, good to know. So far my perspiration hasn't been much of an issue. I tend to be a cold sleeper and don't produce a ton of heat. I...
Hmmm, interesting. I am a side sleeper (about 85% of the time) who switches positions often and I haven't noticed any issues with my full length Incubator.
Edit to add: Even on my side, my...
:laugh:
Well the way my hammock is built, when using the weathershield, (which I love because it really helps trap in heat), the netting is also in place just below it. I should clarify that when...
Okay, so I am totally new to winter camping. Prior to becoming a hanger I've only camped in mild weather, except for one car camping experience down to 32 F with like a gazillion blankets and a tent...
