The stork delivered a new baby Orca yesterday, in time for me to backyard test it before heading off to summer camp for an extended test.
Many thanks to Mac for rushing it to me!
First impressions:
~smaller and lighter than I imagined.
~very nice finish work
~very warm (although it was a warm night, I was sweating like a pig by sunrise when the first light hit it and had to get up)
~ not sure how it's intended to attach to the hammock ends or suspension. I used a micro-biner.
~ I need to tweak the attachment of fitting to get the foot end to close up consistently. (can't make any adjustment form the inside in a HH with bottom opening)
~I very much like the black, breathable nylon cover. No hammock diaper here.
~I think I'm gunna like it.
This was a custom request modification. I can't help but believe that this is the first born Orca in a large family.
My laid back son:
I had my neighbor model it (his wife did too, and now understands why she sees me out her kitchen window everymorning) :
