I'm not sure. The tent was on a little higher ground, but still looked soaked. They didn't have a vehicle and appeared to be kind of living out of the tent. I know they started off in it that night,...

Yeah, he had his running shoes under his hammock and they ended up floating away. When I got up that morning they were floating about 15' from his spot.

Well, I really like how fast and easy it is to hang my hammock using the Lapp knot. I've been using it for a while now with different webbing and rain or shine with no issues/failures that cause me...

I was too underwhelmed to take pictures aside from the one feature I liked and that was the placement of the D-rings that work great for UQs. Mine is actually already heading back....

Yes, simply brilliant especially since this is the side I prefer to enter/exit on. Will have to do something with the magnets more permanently. However, as stated, you can shake them all you want and...

I’m still testing your Lapp hitch. Took my hammock down last night and put it back up using it on both ends instead of just the one.

This video might be helpful.

I just tried it at home this evening. I already had my hammock hanging with the becket hitch and just changed over the foot end to this. I do miss the adjustment ability that is part of the Becket,...

Agree! I ended up ordering both the SL and DL lightweight and the lightweight inner layer on the DL feels great.

At some point I need to check out my brothers 1.6 hexon to see how it compares to...

Thanks for the update. Where did you end up camping on the Buffalo? A few years ago we camped at Kyles Landing. We had 12 people hanging in hammocks and had people constantly coming up to us to ask...

This is exactly what Derek found in his testing. Skip to 7:10 to see the Becket hitch tested.

I just got my new WB Eldorado with the Becket Suspension. In my hurry to set it up in the basement and talking to my boys at the same time, I tied the Becket hitch over the strap instead of the...

I noticed that you also purchased a HG netted hammock. I would be interested in knowing how the HG compares to the WB when you have had time to form an opinion.

Oh, I meant to add...I thought it was interesting that the loops for the tie outs were different on the outside and inside of the bug net. As they come, there are stiff narrow loops on the outside....

Great to hear! I received my orders today. My first order was a $75 SL in brown + buckles. Two days later I decided to also get the $105 DL in brown + Becket with FishHooks.

I’ve been testing...

I saw some pictures in the thread “Shortening a ridgeline” from a couple of years ago. Now it makes sense.

For some reason, I’m having trouble envisioning this mod. Can you provide more details or a picture?

Decided to gift a previous generation WBBB XLC to my son and get an SL Eldorado (brown) with a two tone XLC winter top cover (brown/olive). Hopefully, the good deed in providing my son with a...

I’m not much of a hot weather camper and typically keep some of my clothes and insulation in and attached to my hammock. This makes it difficult for me to attached the second side of the hammock...

The stretch “feature” of the fabric is my main hesitancy to choosing a single layer of the Ninox (I’m currently backing the DL). I have been using a WBRR and would like to see a similar sleep result...

I knew somebody would call me out on not having pics!

Upfront: The hang angle in my basement is not optimal and I only use the hang time when using my hammocks at home. The phone I’m using in the...

I took Rob’s design and made three modifications.

- I passed the strand through the sewn loop of the bug net pull-out and...

Ouch!

Shug, I think we need a link either to an existing video in the archive or a new video demonstrating the proper way to enjoy our morning coffee in a bridge hammock...and thanks for all you...

I didn’t get one early on and have been a little disappointed with my decision, but no more! I’ve placed my order!

This is what I’ve been doing for several years with no issues using a front loader and woolite for my gear.

Enjoy reading from your hammock and eating and playing games together under a commons area tarp. Also, a nice twig burner like the Firebox stove is great in wet weather at the edge of a tarp. As...

Okay, thanks for the info.

Are these standard width or wide? Also, what size diameter and length is the spreader bar?

I'm in the warmth and safety of my WB RR right now waiting for my son to get the camp fire started. He came over and tells me there's a spider on my bug net.

Woodridge is a great place for a quick overnight trip with the family! It’s also a good way to test gear and packs with the 4 mile loop. Will probably end up there for one night next week with the...

I go by FEMA regions. Mine is FEMA Region 7. It casts a much larger border than Shug's 200 yards since it also includes Iowa!

Thanks! I was going to take some pictures of the Ghost Pepper, but it just wanted to fly away with all of the wind. So, it stayed in the hammock while I took the Long Hot pictures.
