    Kickback Hammock Chair

    Paul,

    What are the length and width differences between the Kickback Hammock Chair and the Bushman Hammock Chair? Is the Kickback significantly heavier than the bushman? The new Kickback Hammock Chair looks pretty comfy!

    Hey Kevtron,

    The Kickback is a foot longer and a foot wider than the Bushman so it is a book bit more roomy and is really comfy. Weight wise it would depend on which fabric option was picked for the Bushman, but yes it will weigh more. The Kickback is a double layer of 1.1 where as the Bushman is a single layer of either 1.1 or 1.9 ripstop. So either double the weight or about a third more for the chair itself but the suspension is a couple ounces lighter weight being a whoopie kit rather than full webbing cinch buckle set up.

    I chatted with him about this when I got it and you can either larks head the whoopies to the strap and use the carabiners for the tree end or you can run the strap through its self and use the carabiners to connect the whoopies to the strap. I use my carabiners to connect the whoopies to the straps
