    ViDEO: Adjusting a HammockGear Incubator Full Length Underquilt

    I have been wanting to do a video on how to adjust and fit a full length Hammockgear Incubator underquilt. So, I finally got a custom one so now I can show. It pains me when folks struggle to get the proper fit on a UQ.
    Hammock camping has a lot of moving pieces and insulation underneath is where most folks fail.
    My opinion is that UQs are the most difficult part of a hammock system for most people.
    Hope this gives some helpful insight.
    Whoooooo Buddy))))

    Well done Shug. I've wanted to do a how-to for years, but my video skills are lacking bigtime. Little adjustments can make all the difference!

    Don't want to question the Shug, but is it really 72"x39"? It looks like the standard size to me, but sometimes video lies.

    Shug,
    Thanks for doing this. This should help many of us get these gather end hammocks under quilts dialed in.

    As always ... great job Shug. Your talents are well received. Question? How do you whip the end of your hammocks? I've been using the channels and that works fine. I want to try something different.

    That is a Wilderness Logics snipe hammock in this video so I did not whip that one.

    It was a quickie and used my new camera too. Sony DSC-HX80.
