We've put up a new blog post: https://www.tensaoutdoor.com/one-tree-two-hammocks/ . Content may be familiar to our regular followers, but we wrapped it up for ease of reference to new site visitors.
Ever since we moved the blog from the front page of our site to a sub-page, page views have plummeted, so I'm publicizing "manually" to see where traffic comes from.

Used long term on hard surfaces, such as full-time indoor hangs, the 4 feet on the floor had a tendency to tear after a number of months, yes. You could then borrow the 4 in the air as replacements, but it wasn't ideal. Meanwhile the rubber compound would also tend to leave black marks on floors and walls/ceilings. Also the originals have no lock-on mechanism, so occasionally when the guyline was at a very shallow angle and merely looped over a foot (as in your photo), it would pull off leading to a spill. The new feet are a more snug fit. We've dropped the price of original replacements to near cost.
The new feet solve these problems. We didn't order enough and the MOQ is high, so the price reflects. Next production we'll order plenty extra and drop the price.

Cool cool. Thanks for the explanation.
Mine is set up full time on concrete, but not used daily. The feet on the floor still look good after ~2 years of intermittent use.
I've thought at times about ordering a backup Amsteel ridgeline and baseline, though I could simply splice my own, reusing the planaria, if I ever actually need to replace a line. Some extra feet might be a good idea to complete my 'service kit.'

I've used my Tensa4 as a stand and as a solo and both times it worked really well Still need to dial it in better but I am learning.
Really awesome product though, saves me the risk when I backpack with friends, they often go to areas where tents can go but isn't a lot of good options for me.
I just bought the Tensa Solo... I hope it works with a Dutchware 12' netless and a Dutchware 12' extra wide hex tarp. Would anyone happen to know if they are compatible?
