It was a bit disturbing to see Dutch suspend selling the speed hooks. I was proud he did it and he stated the reason being his rush to judgement on putting them out on the market. That being said, I have hung using my hammock anchors about three times thus far at varying tree distances. I've notice some slight discoloration of the amsteel but that would be expected in my opinion. There is still a slight learning curve on the attachment and I have to be careful to insure I have the proper routing of the line per HammockFans instructions. I am keeping a close watch on mine to insure I am not experiencing a similar issue as the speed hook. I really like my anchors and marvel every time I use them that something so small can keep me in the elevated bliss.
They are both such innovative and useful products. Great line of thinking, just remains to be seen if the execution will hold up under the proper use of the product. Here's hoping for no future issues with the Hammock Anchor and for Dutch's speedy resolution of his concerns with the speed hook.
