    He's got a youtube video showing how it attaches. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvWKm...layer_embedded I'd like to get one myself. They look really cool.

    excuse my stupidity, but being a noob and everything and going headfirst into all of this, what purpose is this supposed to serve? is this supposed to replace a tarp? if so, wouldn't the ends of the hammock get wet?

    So full of doubt, you are, young padawan. The cover serves to helps to conserve body heat and keep you warmer in the hammock, much like a hammock sock does. It is usually made out of breathable material so that condensation isn't a major problem. There, wasn't that easy?

    just a question, why the grey?? i went with camo so the kids can't find me hahahaha. like to go stealth when needed. Btw, the footwear that the gent is wearing in the video, I got those very same pair of 5 fingers, boy do I get some strange looks wearing them

    Bet it's because the 1.1 Blackbird comes in gray and it'll match. Kinda like her purse and shoes.

    Hooch! Where's the dope-slap button on HF ???? I hate it when guys are kinda right.

    ACTUALLY I thought the grey would go nicely with the purple winter underquilt I'm getting. No stealthy colors here! And besides, haven't you heard that grey IS the new camo when it comes to hammocks . . .
