    Modular hammock / tent setup?

    I'll admit, the pic of the bridge hammock caught my eye, but this looks like an impressive combination for people concerned with having to go to ground.

    I wonder about the durability of inflatable load-bearing members. I'll stick with my Tensa 4.

    Oh, I'm planning to get a Tensa4 soon, but I thought this looked like it *might* be backpackable...maybe...and so an option for some.

    Waterproof hammock? I think not.

    Yeah, that makes very little sense to me: if you're planning on sleeping in the hammock, you'll want a tarp anyway, so why not just let the flysheet convert into that and have the hammock be separate?

    Since that includes the tent, fly, pad, and top quilt, I’d say it’s reasonable if not exactly ultralight.

    I thought the same thing when I saw that, but I don’t think the hammock is meant to be a full sleep system. For example, no bug net.
