The idea of being in a hammock is about comfort. Don’t cut corners on the hammock. Dutch’s net less is decent. Keep the tarp simple with a hex tarp. You can save weight with the suspension by...

I know with silnylon, it’s a good idea to use shockcords on the tie outs. What about with silpoly or DCF?


Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I know when using Silnylon tarps, it’s important to use shockcords as sometimes the tarps stretches out when wet. Do you really need shockcords with a Silpoly tarp? I’ve been using shockcords but I’m...

Does that mean I should replace my hookworms?

Finally I don’t have a conflict on the same weekend. I’m signing up.

I agree. If you’re really looking to use the Cocoon, save the money and weight. Buy the netless.

Perfect excuse to buy a new hammock.

I use a Z Lite pad in my double layer hammock. I haven’t got any condensation yet. The lowest temps I went to is 36 degrees.

You’ll enjoy the Chameleon. The double end stuff sack work so good for deploying and stowing the hammock, so the hammock doesn’t have to hit the ground.
You’ll want to look at some of the...

I’m sorry if my original post was confusing. We actually had tornado warnings the other day. Although our campsite didn’t get a direct hit, the winds were pretty high. I’m sure you’re familiar with...

Thank you Dutch. I just received my Christmas shopping package from Dutchware. My 17yo should be happy with his new hammock under the tree.
I’ll send the tarp up after the Christmas. Thank you.

With some high winds a projectile branch pierced my Xenon Hex Tarp. It’s small whole near the lower edge of the tarp....

I’ll have to try that. I’ve had trouble with Flyz and Stingers too.

I might be able to make that weekend.

I finally got my Tensa4. When I set it up, I had to figure out the length adjustments for everything. It might be a good idea to mark off the ridgeline to the desired length for the hammock and tarp....

I’m sure it’s going to sell out quick.

I’m out. I’ve got other obligations on Saturday. I’ll keep an eye out for the next outing.


Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Do you think they have those vinyl seat covers to fit my hammock?


Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

My only concern with the Tensa is rigging the tarp. I guess I might need some extra shock cord.

I hadn’t thought about using it in a hotel room. That sounds clever, but how do you get that Orange...

If you were buying a hammock stand, would you get a Tato or Tensa4?

I’m ready for this weekend’s campout with my Dutchware Pine Needles printed Hex Tarp and with Hookworms and Stingers.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180822/5ff985174e08383b8c12cb3e4b01e675.jpg

When your look at the selection of printed fabrics, there are some varieties that aren’t considered Camo, that are “Camo like”. The PrivacyX have some variations that could work....

That might be a good one for my son. Can you put a starship on there.

Does that mean the pine needle tarp I bought will have a pleasant pine smell to it?

How about the flame? You can pretend that the flame is keeping you warmer.

Imagine a galactic bug net. That would be cool.

I got a double layer with Hexon 1.0 inside and Hexon 1.6 outside. I mostly wanted the double layer to put a pad inside and to avoid the 1.0 stretch. And get a more durable outer layer.

I saw your dates and location on the title Sept 28-30, Hidden Lake Ocala National Forest. If we’re coming in on Friday night, it would be best to use one of the shorter hikes. Because I can’t be...

I’m in Florida and go without insulation most of the year. In fact, in the summer I don’t use any insulation on top or under me. I’ll add a zrest pad when it’s below 60 but when it’s under 40, I’m...

Sounds interesting. I might make that outing.

My new Dutchware Chameleon arrived the other day. I tried it out last night and it was wonderful. The hexon 1.0 inner layer was nice and silky. On the wish list sidecar and a new tarp. I’m looking...

That would look good.

My first choice was Djenne but they didn’t have. My back up choice was pine needles. So I have a new tarp coming soon.

That’s a great sale.

I tied an overhand knot on mine and it’s worked fine.

This is clever. I’ve got extra Zing-it and Amsteel. Maybe I can buy the hardware and make some.

This is a great video on the product. It might go on my wish list.

I live in Florida and ordered a double layer Chameleon. But I chose 1.6 Hexon in and out. I just thought that the 1.6 would be more robust. But I guess the 1.0 Hexon is softer and would be good on...

If you get a net sidecar and put your shoes in there, you might want it down by you feet so you don’t have to smell them.

Does anyone actually use the BBB anymore? There are some many better sources now. For instance, you can check these types of forums, review sites and YouTube video review.

Not much call for insulation here in Florida. It’s too hot most of the time. I bought a double layer Chameleon and will slide my old Z-rest in there. But eventually I’ll get an underquilt for...

Thanks Dutch. It all started with making improvements to my existing gear and found myself drawn to the Chameleon. So far everything else should work with the Chameleon.

I recently got a peak shelf for my old hammock. Can I make that work on my Chameleon? Do I need to swap out the side clips?

I ended up ordering my Chameleon tonight. Hexon 1.6 with bug net. I’m adding a storage pocket and peak loft. Your review helped seal the deal.

That looks like a great idea.
