Have you seen this multi-person hammock?

I got the email. I got the email!

Ready?

I'm not sure you are.

Shipping to the US, is $350. This should give you a clue as to the actual cost. They sent me a PDF brochure with lots of good info. Give me a few minutes and I'll get it posted here.

Bottom line; for US customers:
Type A (small): $2,900
Type B (3-4 person): $8,700
Type C: $11,800

I suppose I should mention that the word "From" proceeds the price. Oh my!

*twitch* *twitch-twitch*

Really? I've spent less on cars--total--in my lifetime than that Type C (though I'm rapidly approaching it with the wife's current lease). Then again, I've probably spent that much on restaurant visits over the last decade...maybe if I don't eat out for the next ten years...

Hrm...DIY...1" Amsteel used as suspension for everything, attaching the hammocks inside to it like some sort of mega-bridge design? Hrm...

Quick someone start designing a uq for that thing.

I was thinking how cool for a patrol of Scouts. Then I thought of how strong the trees would need to be to manage the moon-bounce like treatment that it would have to deal with!

I think it depends on the Scouts and the situation. I could see this being used at Philmont, Northern Teir and Summit Bechtel Reserve. Imagine something like this for the 2013 National Jamboree.

If you look at image 7 in the gallery, they show a lot of scaffolding all around. I hope that was put there just to take pictures, and not to build the thing.

I'm getting zpack to start designing a tarp for mine. I wouldn't want just sil over that.

Pack weight Pack size?.....

You mean number of Pack Mules...

There are lots of ways to get into a tree. This has to be one of the silliest things I've ever seen.

I mean, I'd love to see one in person, but seriously. Who on earth needs this?

trampoline bottom......

I can see so much going wrong with that setup but then thats what happens when it has a trampoline built in

I wonder if the Redwood Forests allow hammock tents like that strung up? Or would Ironwood trees be recommended lol
