    Hello from Switzerland

    Former ground sleeper I got into hammocking because everywhere I went no matter what sleeping pad I took, I somehow always had a stone beneath me. First hammock was a DD frontline, although I eyed the following a lot
    - hobo hammock
    - Clark Vertex
    - Clark NX-270
    - dd superlight

    What got me was the adventure pack, which came with everything included. (And youtube is full of videos of how to make the Frontline better)

    After a couple of nights out in the forest and I ordered my whoopie slings and stoppped using the airmatress pocket in favor of and underquilt.

    Tried hammocking in the UK but could never quite find the 2 trees when I was by the coast

    Currently waiting to try out the Dutch chameleon and hopefully find a suitable UQ for it.

    Hi, and welcome form South Carolina, USA
    No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

    My chameleon arrived! The tree straps had me baffled until the 3rd beer when I understood how they worked.

    Will try them out friday night and post a picture.
