First, HOLY CRAP you are huge for a 13 year old. 6'2 and 200. Wow.

I started with an ENO and still have it. It is incredibly comfortable. I take it car camping with me when weight won't be an issue.

The more I learn about people, the more I like my dog.
As a beginner to the hang lifestyle, this thread has been very informative! Congrats on the ENO!
There are two rules for success:
1. Never tell everything you know.
Thanks pace! I'm glad I could help out another newbie.
Also granny, I would go but I don't have anyone that would stay the weekend with me so I don't think I can go unless I could find someone to stick with for the weekend. Thanks for replying everyone! The hammock should be here Thursday/Friday so I'll give an update then.

i have 2 hammocks, and i love mt doublenest. i too am a "noob" but have spent several nights in my hammock now, i hope to get a underquilt soon. i use a g.i. sleeping pad, and have slept in my hammock at 19 degrees f. i was very comfortable
If you guys are looking for an DIY underquilt and want an easy and cheap project, here is a gread thread. It uses 2 $14 (on end of season sale) JC Penny puffer jackets. you can make it a quick and easy project or get a little crazy (like mine) and go all out. fun project non the less. :-)

That's pretty cool Honey. What is the reason for an underquilt if you have a sleeping bag? Do you still need one if you have a sleeping bag?
You will need either a pad or an underquilt. For starters, a blue pad from wally world is the cheapest, lightest option. What have you been using as a ground pad on your campouts in the past?
So how did it go Zoop?
