We are a small company in Colorado focusing on lightweight and compact products. My son is the founder of the company. He started it with a successful Kickstarter campaign and has been slowly expanding the product line. He was a skydive instructor and a FAA Parachute Rigger while he was in college. He grabbed some reserve parachute material to build an ultralight hammock. After some tweaks and adding soft links in lieu of carabiners, the 5.2 oz single hammock the size of an orange was born. He has since added a single plus and a double size that are longer and wider for those looking for a sleeping hammock. The lightweight hammocks are made in the USA using 1.1 oz. nylon that is actual certified reserve fabric that is rated to 50 lbs psi.
We are working on a new soft link for the end loops that uses a button in lieu of a carabiner and a lightweight combination sil/poly tarp, bugnet, sock thingy (obviously needs a better marketing name!) that we will share seeking some of the incredible wisdom and feedback on this forum.
Our products our all open source on our website so the DIY'ers can download plans and specs.
Happy Hanging,
Joe
