    What do you think is the coolest thing to come out in the last year for a hammock camper?

    Name just one or pick one in each forum catagory, hell just have at it.

    It weighs NOTHING! It has what I like about my (older model - no pocket zips or drawstrings other than my waist drawstring mod) UL Down Inner parka but LIGHTER. Great warmth/weight ratio and great packability, exquisite craftsmanship.

    I know...I picked up my first hammock last fall, a Hennessy Explorer ultra light. Since then I picked up a Hennessy Expedition for my 9 yr. old son, a WBBB XLC and a Grand Trunk double to hang in my my home office. I've been bit by the DIY bug now too.

    For hammocks... Diamond variants of nylon & poly fabrics.
    It is a very alert, active sheep, with a stylish, lively carriage.

    I use a Juki & Pfaffs w/ assorted attachments, and have serviced lots of vintage machines. Any questions?

    I have to disagree. The best part is when you get everything really dialed in. As far as new stuff...Speed Hooks have to be my faves. Although the first year is kinda fun, figuring stuff out and the whole learning curve, it's still nice to have it all settled and sleep warm and comfy.
