    I've seen a one spreader bridge here...

    Seen some vendors call their design a hybrid because it has integrated rainfly or other stuff- but at it's core they seem to be one kind of hammock or another...

    Asym hammocks...

    Or just all of the above- Anything other than a bridge or regular gathered end?
    Or is there a specific style you're speaking of?
    Bridge hammock: i think lay with head and foot point at trees.

    Hybrid hammock : 90 degree lay line from normal hammock

    May be…

    Not to jack the thread, but I LOVE your pic! Am I assuming too much that you chose scorpio from this episode of Simpson's because they talk about the hammock district

    I gotta say that my DH 72" is pretty sweet for me.
    It might be a 'hybrid' according to someones definition as it has an integrated bug/top cover. (If the parts are with me, I can't lose them!)
    Do I love it? Oh yes, as it's certainly large and robust enough to support me.
    4# or so?
