    This is pretty cool. I would bet there would be a market for a slightly smaller size. Somewhere between this sidecar and the current side pocket he sells.

    Hank Scorpio: Hammocks? My goodness, what an idea. Why didn't I think of that? Hammocks!

    Maybe make a sidecar for the Sidecar. A sidecar pannier if you will. This way you could still stuff a TQ into the "Sidecar" and your camera, glasses and knife into the "Sidecar Pannier".
    Enjoy and have fun with your family, before they have fun without you

    I didn't want to up the costs but I think it would be need to have pockets for smaller stuff, like a ridgeline organizer on the hem. It could have a pocket for a fake mustache and another for your curling iron. I might make it an option but maybe you shouldn't bring so much junk.

    But... How will I look fabulous in the forest if I don't bring my fake moustache and curling iron with me?

    More seriously, I keep my Chameleon and TC bundled together in the stuff sack. Will the triple combo still fit, or would I need to DIY a new carrying bag for this?

    Might attempt DIYing something so that shoes can be stored without the need to be careful.

    I got my Sidecar yesterday and its pretty sweet. Easy to put on and it is YUUUUGE!! Even with all the storage options the Chameleon presents, I have been missing the shelf from my old XLC a bit - this solves that in a big way.


    I wish there was an adjustable tie out included with the Sidecar. I was under the impression one came with it ( I misunderstood the original video since there was one attached..my fault). I would have ordered one with my Sidecar had I realized. I suggest either including one or making it an add-on option/drop down item on the Sidecar ordering page.

    Thanks for continuing to innovate and give us all the things we never knew we always wanted, Dutch!

    Maybe I'm confused, but don't you swap out the tie-outs from the section it is replacing?

    If a tree falls on a guy without a fake moustache and flat hair in the forest, does he make a sound? I actually think that between the RL Organizer, the peak loft, the Sidecar, and the external pocket, there is already tons more storage than any other hammock provides (including my old WBBB).

    Did yours not? That was probably an oversight. My sidecar came today, and it included a length of shock-cord w/ line-loc hooks on either end. Then again, maybe Dutch just likes me better.

    How much weight can this hold without buggering the zippers? I'm thinking that's an awesome spot to put my wool anorak in winter. If you get mine to me quick enough I'll test it with wool stuff at the winter hang!!
