    Hennessy Cub Weight Question

    I order the Hennessy Asym Hammock holiday special and got the Cub as the bonus. My question is about the weight limit. My lovely wife is about 125 lbs, is this too much for the hammock? Is it the strap hanging limit or the material? Just curious as it would be a good use for her as my daughter is not that into going camping, more of a dancer.

    I'm pretty sure the weight will be fine. Her height may come into play. If the hammock is too short it can get a bit claustrophobic.

    I have slept a bunch of nights in a HH Scout which i assume is the same or similar. I am 5'10" and 170lb was just fine.

    Web site says Cub hammock is designed for kids under 5'7" and 120 lbs.
