So i decided i was tired of having just a "lightweight" hammock, so i made a really really light one...

I basically used tzbrown's design, but customized for me. It is only 4 feet wide, and 9 feet long, with a triangular footbox. It is made of 1.1 ripstop, so it is kinda fragile, but i dont plan on hoppin in it with an open knife, so im good. Im 5'9" and 155# so it doesnt have a huge amount of stress. I ran spectra cord through the seams, and attached them to the suspension. The ridge line is spectra as well, and it has 6' amsteel whoopie slings (7/64") larks headed directly to the hammock. one inch wide, 5' long, polyester tree straps, and ill grab a stick or something from my pack to use as toggles. i tested it out and slept in it...its perfect size for me, but i think it would be terrible if i was any taller. TOTAL WEIGHT IN BAG is 6.13 oz! i was pretty happy with that
Pics are coming soon....
