Worked for me last spring in the Nalgene.
Nice
I would like to know as well.
I've bought whoopie slings from 2 different vendors. One slides oh so smooth and the other can be a struggle loosening. I think I know what you are talking about.
So it is holding fine after reinflating. Weird.
Ever get anywhere with the zenbivy or Haven valve leak? Filled mine cold and felt it tonight and it was flat. Should have been fuller with the warm temp swing. Doubt theres a findable hole. Probably...
I as well have had nothing but good experience from Haven and the entire crew. All questions have always been answered and amazing customer service every time. Don't believe I would backpack with it...
I like my Banyan. Best I can tell the "flat" of most of these hammocks is the shoulder squeeze not head to toe. The Banyan def. doesn't squeeze my shoulders but certainly not as flat as the Haven...
I started carrying a nice river rock in my saddlebag. Double duty for my tensa pole and side stand.
Indeed. I've been debating adding a 20 to my 40.
And I'd love to know how to add the degree symbol from my keyboard.
I hung it this afternoon. My trees were a bit farther than I thought so I just needed to raise the ends on the trees. A lot less tension on the ridgeline. Now to see how it sleeps.
Pecked around a little looking for an answer but got limited results. I feel like I've been setting my banyan ridgeline too tight. Does it fall into the 4 finger twist test the same as gathered end?...
I still find myself struggling to find the right anchors. Went to ground with tree roots last time the orange screws and boom stakes didn't hold.
After experimenting with a bridge hammock I do find the UQ to be much warmer than pad/mattress cover but the Haven comfort is hard to beat. Probably a better insulated pad is the solution at the...
I've got a deluxe stuff sack (14.5 x 16) from Antigravity that holds my Banyan and UQ with a little room to spare. Does somebody make a little bit larger to hold my TQ too? I know easiest to make my...
Just figured out I have to work dang it. Well I guess it will save me money.
Nalgene helped me out on a cold trip this spring.
Thanks. It felt right but that didn't mean I knew what the heck I was doing with this hammock thing.
TL;DR= If the Banyon is the route you want to go- I'd definitely just put on the Lynx you own before you go looking for trouble as the general consensus seems to be that the fit is acceptable. I...
Loving the new banyan. I had a 1.0 but the 1.6 provides a little better support for my larger frame.
Yep. Just get a few screw-on feet the right size.
You snow guys are a different breed. I might want to try someday just for the quiet beauty. Thanks for sharing.
Well it can be affordable until the rabbit holes get deeper.
:laugh:
So when you do stuff like this what does food look like?
Perfect. Thanks.
Yeah I’m not sure about the maple king. He would scare me.
Shoot the Banyan was in my cart and I never pulled the trigger before the 10% was gone. Guess I didn't really need it.
:thumbup:
I'm all about an excuse to hang and would love to visit vendors in person. Is it just hanging out meeting new people or hikes or something else?
Any pictures?
Slept like crap on the ground in a tent and never tried another pad. That and packing up wet sucked.
Mine get stored in the cotton bags they came with until one comes without a cotton bag. Anybody got a cheap source for those cotton storage bags? Amazon or Aliexpress but wouldn't mind supporting...
I'm always looking when I go boating but forget about my solo pole.
Too cold for me but some stunning photography as usual.
Thanks for the input.
I hadn't thought about condensation.
I think I would enjoy adding a moonlight or vented top cover to my Banyan but I can't tell the difference. I've watched the video a couple of times but still a little in the dark. Obviously a bit...
I use yellow zing-it for all my ground lines but would love to find some reflective for the ring worms. Did it ever come back on the market? Just using CL of reflective shockcord at the moment but...
I'm looking forward to experimenting with a bishop bag on my next trip. Seems it would be nice to leave the uq attached for a copy of days of travel when packing up.
The explains a lot about your amazing videos and personality. Always look forward to learning from Shug.
Stunning photos.
Hopefully it's nothing that tempts me too bad.
I thought this was hilarious. Close to ordering one.
I have struggled with the orange screws in the southeast with moist ground and pulling up. Last trip had to find some ground roots even after doubling the orange screws, they kept pulling out.
Ended up taking both and never pulled out the Haven. Tried the Banyan with and without the pad. Without the pad wasn't bad but enjoyed having the pad a little bit more. My temperature might have been...
Headed up to the mountains in a few days. Leaning toward the Banyan at the moment. But the Haven has never let me down.
thanks for the heads up. Yep still looking. I think I need a little wider than the regular Eclipse.
I’ve got both. My standby and entrance into hammock camping on the motorcycle was the Haven and it hasnt let me down except a little cold last year. I’ve got a Banyan that seems really comfy on the...
I searched and did not find. Hopefully somebody can help me out. If using 1.75 MM dyneema for bear bag, how do you secure it to a tree?
