    HH Scout mod

    I've just received two HH scout zips for the kids, and occasionally me, and am interested in changing the suspension system. I am using the single line method on my ENO DN, and like it. I looked under the fancy little "end cap" on the HH and found that the hammock body and "guts" have been ran through with a hot pocker, and tied with a combination sheeps bend and clove hitch. Has anyone re-worked this system and with what method or knots. Thanks!

    It's been done a time or two with whoopie slings.

    It is fairly easy to change out with whoopies. They are many threads on modifying HHs.

    I had got my kids Scouts awhile back. and They/We love them.
    I also changed the suspension and it is much easier for my 3 year old. The webbing and camlocks work great for the kids and hold up for me as well.
    Not to mention, that out of the 5 Hennessys we have, the Scouts get used the most by me.

    Thanks for the responses. I'll be changing the set up soon. Love the video of the young lady setting up her own hammock.
