BIAS Questions

[Tobit]

Thinking my next hammock will be a BIAS as I'd like to keep the costs low.

I see on their site the have the Weight Weenie Hammock for $48 but a "KIT" version for $60. What is the difference? Does the kit include suspension? Is this the difference. There are also no color options with the kit.

I'm sure the good people at BIAS will be here shortly to answer you, but yes the difference looks to be suspension.

I never noticed this before, but you totally don't get a color option with their kit. Hrmm.

I believe one if not both are away on a vacay. So you might try a more direct root via email.

I am out of pocket, just got a connection tonight for a bit. Is there any recommendations on places to check out in Cape Cod? I'm headed there in a few days. (been in Niagara for a few days) I'm ready for the wife to drive

You probably want to avoid Provincetown.

And maybe he doesn't. I went to a Bob Dylan concert there and it wasn't half bad. Irrespective of the predominant sexuality, it's a pretty cool place.

Oh, I know...love the place, meself. Still, many straight males are totally squicked.

Can someone describe the color problem?

There was no color option on the WW Kit but it appears to be fixed now.

I just placed an order for one with ridgeline and knotty mod.

I see color options for the Weight Weenie hammock, and they're the same color options for the Weight Weenie kit: Forest Green, Coyote Brown and Silver/Gray. The product description of the Weight Weenie kit indicates that it includes "a suspension system including of toggles, whoopies and 72-inch polyester straps (1-inch wide)."

So if you already have a suspension, save $12 and just buy the hammock. But $12 is pretty cheap for a suspension if you don't already have one. If you bought the suspension independently from BIAS, it's $21.95.

I have a BIAS hammock, but I like a little titanium bling in my suspension so I have whoopie hooks. Whoopie hooks are the coolest doodads - I can't live without them. Dutch has a complete whoopie hook suspension on sale for $39. I just bought the whoopie hooks for $13 and made my own whoopies to go with straps I already had.
