    Dutch Pack?

    Hey Dutch,

    Now that you have shown your design prowess and have the amazing team and materials, have you ever considered making backpacks for those of us who are thread injector challenged?

    Bet you could offer some amazing stuff.

    I still have one last Credit Card that isn't maxed yet.

    What if the mesh on the front of the pack comes off and becomes the bugnet? You can attach it with this fancy Vision zippers of yours.

    The bridgeskin is an awesome design! However, didn't you say it was limited in the rain?

    Rain does make it a challenge. You can deal with it but you better have a great pack cover or your hammock is wet. That material is waterproof though so the inside would stay dry.

    As much as I would love a Dutch Pack, there are such fantastic pack makers out there that I question what I could bring to the party. Also fitting people for packs is like fitting people for shoes. I know one cottage pack maker has over 10% return ratio for sizing problem. Lastly I have more hammock stuff to invent. I have a list of projects that I am constantly working on. I have 3 new hammock designs coming out and I love pushing the limits on the different materials and components. For now I will be happy putting my Chameleon in my Ohm. I gotta lotta love for ULA.
