The bipod worked great. The only issue is when I tied the tarp off to the bipod, and you get in the hammock, the tarp sags way down. I'll have to get a longer ridgeline to reach the second tree.
No you don't. Just incorporate some shock cord in your setup to take up the slack.
I would add a loop of cord between the legs of the bipod to limit how far they can spread...could be an ugly moment.
Now: pics!

It's two 8' 2x4s attached near the top with an eye bolt. A ratchet strap attaches to the eye bolt, and then to the base of the tree that's too far away.
