    Ok, I took some pics yesterday of my first FOB that pretty much hangs 24/7. I "nap" in this every night for about an hour before going to bed. I have a secondary tarp above this set up for more of a protective tarp from the elements. Due to the neighbors kittens climbing the trees and then jumping onto the tarp, I didn't really want a bunch of little holes in my set up. Here's a pic how it normally is:


    Here's one with the whoobie over it. The poncho liner fits my hammock perfect and really helps keep the heat in even in windy conditions



    Here's one without the woobie. As you can see, the rainfly as the full system works perfect



    Here's an inside view of the pad pocket and the angle it's on in the hammock



    another with my MSS intermediate sleeping bag on the angle



    Hopefully these pics help to better understand the hammock.

    Cool idea with the poncho liner. I use mine every day but inside the hammock....over my body. You can also tie it under the hammock as back up to your closed cell foam pad on temps below 0. So, which do you like better the flannel liner or the calendared ripstop liner in your new hammock?

    Haven't got to spend any time in the new one yet so I'm not sure which liner I like better yet. It got down to 32* last nite with wind. I stayed warm but my nose got a little cold. I need to swap out the hammocks but with all the overtime I'm working I just don't have much time. Plus I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to cut one of the whoopies off as I can't get either end to relax enough to let the hammock down. When I do, I'll use your suspension to hang the new one up so that I don't have those problems again.

    I think Tony's doing a photo shoot this weekend so hopefully he'll have some better pics than what I have. There's a lot of little amenities that you don't see on his website. One I just discovered is a tent stake pouch attached inside hammock stuff sack. These hammocks have a well thought out design and are super comfortable. I loved my 1st one so much that I bought another. And then I worked a bunch of overtime so I could order a 3rd (customized also) with a custom made rainfly.

    I like the way the zipper/door looks. It seams that I saw a similar design but can't place it. I would really like to see one in person.

    Wow, that looks really interesting. I'd like to take one of those car camping. Pretty cool.

    Tony's building a new Pak-It-Lite Hammock website. He's added a few new pictures and info on his old one (http://camphammocks.com/hammocks.html), but will have a lot more on the new website.
