The wait is over....I just received my Sparrow this evening...and I can't contain my excitement.

Won't be able to take it out for a bit, but I will post here with a report once I do. Only thing I...

ah I see, I'm new at this, so I was just speculating. I would probably opt for that then if (when) I spring for one of Dutch's hammocks.

Thanks Sanglin, I've been perusing this for months and just couldn't decide! I'll reserve further questions for my own thread :)

Thanks for the video. Before you adjusted the feet, though, it looked like the mod hikes up the fabric to create a very high wall...makes me wonder if views out the side of the hammock are...

Exped is a bomb company! Great review!

I'm new to the forum...is it poor form to ask why you're selling the hammock? (i.e. is something wrong with it?) I don't mean to be indecorous!

Would the tie-outs remedy the extra fabric dilemma? I was aiming for a little extra wiggle room to achieve a nice diagonal lay. Working on making it to a hang out west...but no dice so far.

This was one of my thoughts/concerns going into this, so I feel dual zippers is a great call. My gut tells me to go with the integrated bug net, I tend to toss and turn and wouldn't want to be...

Hello everyone!

I imagine this post will echo many others on this site, but rather than hijack other threads with my questions, I figured I'd start my own.

I'm new to hammock camping, so any...

I see...thanks PapaSmurf! More questions surely to come! :)

For someone like me at 5'9" and 137lbs would the stretch difference between the two fabrics be negligible? While young, ive got a bad back and have read less stretchy fabrics tend to offer better...

I am looking to move from uncomfortable ground sleeping to hammocking while backpacking, and as I'm brand new to this, was thinking of going with a 64" X 11' sparrow...would I need to look at an...

Hammock noob here...
Why would you recommend the tie-outs? Do they really effectively keep fabric out of the face? I'm thinking of going with a 64" X 11' sparrow. I'm 5'9" and 135 lbs for reference,...

As someone who is looking to get into hammocking (still haven't had a chance to lay in one yet), I'd love to hear how her experience is with the sparrow!

So much good info here! Is there much of a functional difference between the .9 and .5? I assume it's durability, visibility and weight that vary. Is the .5 oz very delicate?

Hope I can make it there one day! Looks amazing!

As someone looking to try out a hammock before buying his first one, I wish I could join! I'll keep an eye out for any hangs nearer to San Francisco!

Brand new to the world of hammocking and wondering if anyone will be in Yosemite (Valley) this coming weekend? I'm ready to pull the trigger on a hammock of my own, but wanting to try before I buy,...

Looks awesome! Headed to Yosemite this weekend! Unfortunately I am new to hammocking (don't own one), so I can't help with your queries. I am wondering though, How long and wide is the Dutch hammock...

If anyone is in the San Francisco area and willing to help out a complete noob yet to lay his virgin behind in a hammock, I would love to sit in one before I pull the trigger on something...

Sprocket was the name of the dog on one of my favorite childhood shows, Fraggle Rock. Randomly used it here, but I'm hoping to acquire a trail name on my PCT thru-hike that I will one day...

No worries! Given the thread has been dead for 3 years, have you refined any further opinions or insights as to the effects of hammock width on comfort? Some swear by 72" others cite no additional...

Thank you both for the info! Dialing in my first hammock purchase sure is a tedious, albeit exciting, process! No hangs in my area, and finding difficulty trying anything out, so I'm trying to just...

Any word on this report? I'm a newbie to hammocking and am very curious about the width comparisons!

Not meaning to hijack a thread, but it's a bit older, so I thought I'd ask...I'm brand new to hammocking (in search of a more comfortable backcountry sleeping system), and am wondering why one might...

I'm just gonna put this here because I, too, really want to pull the trigger on one of these!

First post, brand new to hammocking and looking to try one out before I buy. What a welcoming online community! Looking at the Simply Designs Trail Lair or WBBB based on comfort in the great reviews...
