I planted a tree that will serve as a tie down between two different trees.
I also bought a variety of hammock stands (Tensa, YOBO Gear), for hanging with no trees around. Haven Tent is good to...
I saw the setup at HangCon. This is gonna be a sweet stand. I love their setup and how it could accommodate children. My toddler would love this stand.

Best to guy it out on any windy day. Hammocks and tarps will act like a parachute.
If no wind, then no worries.

YOBO stands, such as the Cricket, don’t require stakes. It’s self-standing. The YOBO Hive will be bigger, but also stand alone.

YOBO stands and Tensa Solo/Trekking Treez come to mind.

I saw the demo at HangCon 24. I liked the small stand that my 2yo would happily jump into. I was told as my 2yo continues to grow, so would her stand through optional accessories to expand the stand....

While at HangCon 2024, I spoke with a Haven Rep (completely forgot his name, very nice guy). He told me they cannot completely remove the bug net because there was a patent on the design.

Dutch is an expert on titanium everything. Maybe he could make titanium beads… that would be awesome… and lasts longer than the plastic beads.

I heard of some people putting 80” x 30” reflect-x under the Haven pad to trap the warmth.

Nice thing about the tensa 4 is you can widen the stance and lower the profile a little. You’ll end up sacrificing a little bit of floor space. I found if I collapse down one section (the foot end of...
You can try something like Stopper set for rock climbing or another one could be Camelot cam set.

I’m guessing only an A Frame tarp would work… or is there a way to attach other types of tarps?

Keep preaching.
There are new hammockers every year. Maybe some of them didn’t know about it.
There are old hammockers that become complacent and need reminding.
Life is short, but it...
Sorry, you’re right. Supposed to increase the R-Value with lower temps. My brain was backwards… I know what I meant to say, came out wrong.

I saw a YouTube video about f someone cutting reflect-X to the length and width of the pad and placed it underneath the pad. They said it lowered the r-value.

That’s a great idea.

Sorry for the late reply. It’s been awhile since I’ve been on Hammock Forum.
I’ve asked Dutch and unfortunately, his business has ramped up and could not do it at this time.
I got in touch...
That’s awesome!
Pictures, mate… gotta see pictures of all these different hang spots.
Hanging in urban/industrial spots sound cool.

I know the big one is the use of 2” straps to protect the trees.
Another is to not cut away the foliage or hack down limbs (destroy or maim) trees. Leave that up to the P&R to designate trees or...
