Does anyone use a ridge line on there Clark hammock?
I'll take that as a NO.
Just saw your post. I added a ridge line to mine but it's an older Clark. I hang my glasses and such from it.
Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!
I used a ridgeline for awhile - just from hoop to hoop to keep the hoops from falling when the bug net was open on my 250. I hung a small organizer from it, too.
But it was just something else to get tangled up so I didn't keep it for long.

I made a hammock 11 foot by 57 inches width put a ridge line on it and works great put a topper on it made from sheltowee Hammocks!! for extra wind protection and i love it!
Its a good day to be out in the woods no matter the weather.Mist One..
I added a ridgeline and totally modded the suspension on a Clark NX 200. This suspension would work on any of the North Americans.

Not really a great story, just an experience i had while camping with some buddies a few years back. We were up at Bong State park in Wisconsin and the only site that was hammock friendly-ish had 2 trees that were about 20ft apart and i had a really hard time getting the tree straps up high enough to get a good lay in the hammock. I ended up tightening the suspension up so much, just to keep from hitting the ground once i got in that i could barely get the bug net closed. That was a very uncomfortable night in my Clark.
One of the best things about a ridgelined hammock is the you can tighten up the suspension as much as you like and it doesn't affect the lay of the hammock.
I always have the ridgeline with me and have only needed to use it one time, but i hardly ever put it on the hammock. IMO the Clark is so easy to set-up and i don't thing the angle of the suspension is as critical on it as it is on other gathered ends.
