Early!! :lol:
+1 on the Diamondback and the Wooki. I've got a 0* Diamondback and a 0* Wooki, and have been out in 0* temps and was warm. As stated above, theirs is a "system" that works AMAZINGLY well. In my...
Well, my 0* Diamondback arrived today! This thing is NICE!!! VERY fine craftsmanship! Thank you Brandon!!!
I can't wait for that first "0 degree" night to try it out!
I ordered a True Blue 0* Diamondback with 1oz of fill in the leg area. It says there's a 3 - 4 week wait time for delivery. I wonder... How will a 0* top quilt work in the the first part of JULY?!?...
Here's month #12 for a couple friends and I. We also had a few of the grandsons tag along for the night. In total, there was seven of us hanging....
Here's mine... Warbonnet XLC, 0* Wookie, Wilderness Logics 20* TQ, inside the UQ protector and top cover. If they're calling for snow, I put up the...
Yes, mine were originally 4'. I cut them down more for portability than anything else, and I wanted my overall pole length to be in the 108" range. Hanging my Blackbird XLC with an 11' tarp on that...
SO... The the few of us who have the ULTRA RARE 3 sided zipper mods have a PRICELESS piece of Warbonnet memorabilia!!! :lol:
No, I have not. I am about 180# or so and there was not much flex in the poles while in the hammock. My completely unscientific opinion is that you could easily go to 250 without any concern. ...
1. Yes, I did paint mine with satin black Krylon spray paint.
2. I used a bandsaw with a metal cutting blade. (Fine teeth) I wrapped the pole with tape where I cut to minimize any splintering....
i don't have a digital scale to give a weight. Sorry.
Here's a couple of pics. Not sure if it helps... Top cover, or bugnet zips into upper zipper half. Underquilt zips into lower zipper half and then the hammock zips into the inner zipper half....
I too just got my zipper mod, and I think it's absolutely BRILLIANT!! As bigdisgrace says, it fits perfectly. Brandon and Warbonnet DEFINITELY have their act together when in comes to their...
The store is located in the western New York area and they've had them at that price for several years at least. I don't know how they came to have them or how big their supply is.
Not really...
The fiberglass military tent poles I used were 4 ft long and I cut them down to 3ft each and use 3 on each leg, for 108". My XLC hangs nicely. I would think 100" would work as well.
Had the first overnight test in it Friday night. Worked perfectly! Had a bit of an ice storm about 4 AM. Low temp of...
There is a local hardware store that carries them for 99 cents each. They are a military surplus item, so you could look in that type of store. I see there are some listings on Ebay but they are...

This is my DIY Tensahedron stand. I used 12 fiberglass military poles cut down to 3ft each.171112171113171114171115
I'm 5' 10" 180# and I upgraded to the XLC this past summer. I LOVE it! The nice thing about the XLC is you can get the Wooki underquilt that is 'set it and forget it'. No fiddling or fussing. And,...
I ordered mine on the 13th and it's at the post office for me to pick up on my way home from work today. CAN'T wait to get it!
Well, we got COMPLETELY rained out! It started to POUR before we were even able to get out to go to the camp site. The Blackbird XLC and Wooki will have to wait for another day. :(
I'll be taking my new Wooki out tonight for the first time. They're calling for showers in the early AM, with temps in the mid fifties. (Looking forward to rain tapping on my tarp!) I expect I'll...

Here's mine in blue. My wife and kids got it for me as an early birthday present. Hung out in it last night and it was the best sleep I've ever had in a hammock! And I LOVE that shelf!!!
My wife and kids just gave me a blue XLC for an early (EARLY!) birthday present. Planning on hanging Friday night in it! 0* Wooki is next on my list :)
A couple years ago we had an overnight father/son campout with our church. My friend had his hammock there and I was impressed! (Jealous, actually!) Went home the next day and told my wife all...
