Ok, outside of the video reviews has anyone who bought a DD Jungle hammock have anything to say about the hang of this hammock ?

Many a good hanging prevents a bad marriage.

What sets a canoeing expedition apart is that it purifies you more rapidly and inescapably than any other travel. Travel a thousand miles by train and you are a brute; pedal five hundred on a bicycle and you remain basically a bourgeois; paddle a hundred in a canoe and you are already a child of nature.
-- Pierre Elliott Trudeau
Yeah I`ve got one now, used it proper for the first time last weekend up in the Peak District. Friend and I were Wild camping and ended up on a 45degree hill the first night hung between 2 trees with no tarp, had plenty of room, ( I am 6`0 and 17 stone ) . good nights kip......quick setup and take down... i`ve sold my old Hennessy to a mate.......DD all the way for me now...

The DD Travel was my first hammock - for the same reason like most - the price. It's 9' (270cm) and so is the new Jungle Hammock, so the lay should be similar. I'm 6'4 and I was Ok in it until I tried a 10' (only a month or so after I got the DD). 10' became my minimum for comfortable diagonal lay. DD says its comfy up to 6'5, I would say for that it's missing a foot of length.
I would always take a tarp with it to have good shelter.
The bottom layer will probably act as a 60F UQ. The spreader bars may help to avoid shoulder squeeze.

Could you possibly post a picture of the hammock packed in its stuff sack? I love my frontline but am thinking about picking this one up but am concerned about how much space the whole system will take up in my backpack.
It looks like a great hammock. I would like to hear a review from someone who has spent the night in it during a rainstorm. I know DD says that it's not designed to keep you dry during a driving rain, but I wonder if anyone has tested that.
Is it a single or double layer hammock? I dont see it listed on the website.
