    Question Kick Starter - Outdoor Vitals Mummy Pod - Anybody seen this yet?

    I Stumbled across yet another pod system with a twist. I happened upon an advert for a kickstarter from Outdoor Vitals for a Mummy Pod System. Looks like the major innovation was a zippable foot box. Unzipped it will accomodate what looks like nearly every hammock that isn't specialized. Zipped looks like you could - gasp go to ground - why you might want that IDK but....

    Anyhow was wonder 2 things;
    • If there is anyone on here who has contributed to this kickstarter or a similar one

    • If Outdoor Vitals or anyone employed by them is a member here


    Anyhow thanks for input

    Looks like you have to "banana" sleep to use it, I've seen something identical to that on Amazon, no thanks.

    Yeah wasn't my ideal product. Again just curious if anyone had seen this yet - and mainly curious of Outdoor Vitals participated here.
    Here is a link to the video if anyone is curious;

    I have seen one of their sleeping bags and it looked good.

    Have not seen any of their hammock stuff but from what I have seen on their web site, the hammock is too short and too narrow....pass....much better stuff from our cottage vendors out there.

    This thread had someone defending OV and is possibly an employee, though they did not confirm it.

    Wow!! Made in China ehh. Glad I asked around. Idea isn't new but application looked promising for mild weather if you don't mind being a "bannana" but.....
    Would be interesting to hear how that finally panned out.

    I too will be passing
