Hammock Equality
Over the past couple years that I have been hammocking and around this forum,
the question of whats better (Brand or Brand) has come up often. And far to
many times a comment or miswording has turned the topic into a brand bashing.
Whether that was the intent or not, we should try and avoid this sort of thing
from happening (My Opinion). I have seen this go as far as to make a new member
regret his choice of what he ordered when he hasnt even tried it yet!
I get wanting to support the cottage vender over the more established mainstream
brands when you can. But also remember what the bigger "mainstream" brand(s) have
done for this comunity.. Its pretty safe to say they have got more people into
hammocking than just about anyone. And in the end isnt that what we all want?
The best blanket answer 90% of the time is to suggest or help them find someone
local to them so they can try and make there own decision on the matter. Tell
them the differences and point them to someone that can show them it in person.
We should also try and avoid comments like "Beginner Hammock" Lets keep comments
happy and prevent a Harley vs Crotch rocket type of attitude from forming here. I dont
care if you prefer an Eno or a giant back yard hammock. The only thing that
matters here is HAMMOCKS are bad ***.
Thats just my thoughts..
Now im going to go grab a nice drink and lounge in my HAMMOCK!!!!
