Thank you Warbonnet.
I've got the Blackbird and have been thinking about a Ridgerunner for years, but never quite pulled the trigger. The email this morning was all the excuse I needed to take the...
Looks like a interesting hammock and one more to possibly add to the hammock armada.
The only weak link I can see is the need for an air pad. Back in my tent camping days I had my fair share of a...
I consider myself a warm sleeper and when I ordered this TQ I told Mac I wanted something for our warmer Southern climate. He told me he would make it out of 1/2" CS.
I have had it out a few times...
Here ya go. The stuff sack is smaller than the one Mac sends.

Glad I found this thread, because I was wondering WTH was going on with me... lol
Just started hammock camping this summer. The first time camping was in July and I did not get up during the...
A big thanks to everyone for a great hang. It was my first group hang and you folks really know how to put one on. Lots of good people and good food.
Packing up tonight and heading out by Noon tomorrow. I'll be bringing an extra hammock and tarp if needed.
I have the MM Top Blanket and just returned from a camping trip. The low got to 44 and I was perfectly warm.
Not sure how much further it will take me but I'm guessing by the low-mid 30's I'll need...
It's my Dangerbird with Argon 1.6 Woodland Camo. :D
Oh yeah, middle #1182, looking good. Should make for some fine stealth camping.
Did not realize that business owners had to wait to get paid and as far as the fees are concerned, doesn't a business still have to pay credit card fees when a customer pays by credit card?
At...
Just got word from Brandon.
They are no longer taking PayPal. :huh:
Gunner, I'll take a Large and a XL t-shirt if you order them. I figure I'll be able to wear the Large when I get there and need the XL by the time I leave. :lol:
Just got off the phone with PayPal. Nothing wrong on my end, it would appear Warbonnet has stopped using PP. Hate using my cc, as my hobby money is in my PP account from selling off other hobby gear....
Thanks, sent a couple emails this morning, still waiting on a response and I would call but I cant find a number listed anywhere.
Wasn't sure if it was a glitch on their end, my end or they just...
Ordered a WBBB and SF in late July and paid using PayPal.
I tried to order another SF this morning and the only payment option I get now is using a credit card.
Did Warbonnet stop taking...
Superfly has been sold.
Sold pending funds.
Sorry for the mix up. Post edited.
Agreed, we all owe a big thanks to Tom for making us hammock addicts. :lol:
A HH Exped was my first hammock and I still used it occasionally. It's a well made hammock and it sure beats sleeping on...
I ordered this Olive Brown WB Superfly in late July.
Other than me taking it out of the bag in my living room to check it out, it has not been used.
I have decided to order the multi-cam...
+1, loving mine along with my Gearbox.
My SBP came with cordage for hanging. I went to my local outdoor outfitter and purchased some climbing webbing. I cant remember how much I paid for two 12' straps but it wasn't much.
I then used...
I have the HH Exped. It was my first hammock and at 5'8" 200 it takes some fiddling to get the hang right, but I can get to where I can sleep comfortably in it. It still has a small amount of calf...
Looks like Papa and Mama Smurf are going to be busy. :laugh:
Glad my Dangerbird order got in (barely) before the 14 TBirds order. Those sewing machines are going to be running hot.
I like your style. lol
I'd been using the ropes/descender rings but decided to swap out the suspension. I ordered the Amsteel loops with cinch buckles, straps and Dutch clips from Dutch and they arrived this past week....
I ditched the rope and the descender rings I had been using. My Dutch gear arrived yesterday and I installed the Amsteel Continous Loops with Cinch Buckle. Took about 15 minutes. I went out in the...
Oh yea, I'd love to see some photos of that setup.
Sounds too cool. Not sure what my Australian Terrier would do in his own hammock, but he does love his comfort...... just like his owner. :lol:
I've gone to a separate ridge line for my tarp which makes life much easier.
I have been using webbing/ring suspension but felt like changing it out so I just ordered these from Dutch...
Good luck. I'll be interested to see what answers you get.
I have a Byer of Maine Brazilian with the corded ends and mine has some tangles also. I've been the same route as you, watched the lady on...
Got mine also.
Thanks again gunner.
Ordered a Blackbird and Superfly on 7-16 and 7-22 respectively and the order was shipped 7-29.
+1 to the Tribe.
Got my Blackbird and Superfly a couple days ago and couldn't be happier. Great workmanship and design.
They are a great addition to my hammock/fly quiver and I can't wait to get...
Notbusy, don't take offense at some of the responses. People are fierce in their loyalty to their favorite cottage vendor and rightly so.
Yes, maybe the return email was a bit impersonal, but as...
Looking forward to hearing how the trip went. I'm hoping to hit the C&O in September. My other options are the Great Allegheny Passage trail and the Greenbriar River Trail.
I've cycled the GAP and...
Thanks for the info guys. I'll check out the suggestions.
Will be visiting the in-laws mid August. They live in Fairborn, outside Wright Patterson AFB near Dayton. I'd like to find a place to do a little hiking and maybe spend a night in my hammock in the...
Hey oldog, great story. I did a bit of camping as a teen in the late 60's. I lived around Chicago and used to catch the train up to the Indiana Dunes State Park to stealth camp, before I even knew...
I have tried using a pad with my HH Exped. What seemed to work for me was to roll the pad up, put it in the Exped and position it so its partially unrolled, turn around and sit on the pad and unroll...
I know what you mean about the salt marshes gunner.
When I was with the FD we had to launch an inflatable to get to a kid who had drove a jet ski high and dry onto a mud shoal with the tide dropping...
Ding ding ding, give that man a cigar. Yep it's Kenneth Kramm and he looks as at home in the bush as anyone I've ever seen.... and I thought Dave Canterbury was a bush rat.
+1 on the Tree Table. Lovin mine.
What could be better than relaxing in the back yard, in your hammock, cold drink in hand and watching a Shug vid.
Ratdog's just livin the dream..... :D
After looking at the Dryfly I can see your concern with blowing rain.
If it were me, I would get the WB Superfly because of the doors and better coverage. The WB SF is lighter and with the doors...
He said......... writing from a beach in Costa Rica. :lol:
Not sure if this has been posted, but I found this video pretty interesting.

Just goes to show how much we really need to get by in the woods.
I'm...
It's always possible that you will end up somewhere without a place to hang.
And although I would love to say I will never sleep on the ground again, stuff happens. I would not embark on any trek...
Congrats. It's great to get off the ground. :D
Let us know how the first night works out for you.
You're right, it's a great deal. After reading your first post I placed an order for the Hex and paid $53 shipped. That's less than I paid for my Gear Guide tarp which is smaller.
