===> Welcome! Where are you? We will be having several hangs in Mass, western, central, and eastern Mass, and close by in VT, NH, and ME coming up this year. Hope to hang with you at some of them!

I'm down in Medway. Just got in some ripstop today from DIY gearsupply and I'll be making my first hammocks for me and my boys in the next few weeks. Hope to meet up with some of you and make it out to a few this year.

Chaz, Got a link for that WL pole mod kit? I need to get one on order myself. The more I look at the versatility of the SF, then more convinced I I am that I need to get in on that.

I ordered the parts from Quest, quick delivery and just $29 delivered to my door. The order also included 3 feet of 3/32 shockcord. Easy to put together and I used string with mitten clips instead of grommeted webbing.

It should be 3 yards not 3 feet of shockcord.

Hey thanks Joe. Much appreciated. I'll follow the link.

Be sure to fill us in on the RR once you get a hang in it. I'm curious to see how you like it. Have been toying with the idea of an RR. Hear only good things about them.

All the best !

===> Gil, as a big guy you may find a bit of "shoulder squeeze" in the RR. It is less as long as you stay up hear the head end. Feel free to hop in mine at the next hang. There are some tricks to laying in it, especially for side sleeping, but once you get it, it is a really comfortable hammock!

I really enjoy my Ridge runner. I have probably slept about 20 nights in it. Maybe more. I have found it to be really comfortable. I have used it with under quilts and a ground pad. Both work great. Though I have found it was hard to dial in the HG quilts for it. The ones made by Warbonnet work flawlessly with no fiddle factor.

Thanks Chaz. I'll take you up on that. Would definitely like to lay in one to get the feel. I appreciate the offer.

Sounds like you guys may take a hit tonight with the weather. We got ours on Thursday. (Another 12 inches out here in Western, Ma. - Nothing to speak of today/tonight.).

Stay safe. Talk to you soon.

All the best !
