    Hello from Buffalo!

    Hi ya'll, looking to share my hammock adventures, successes, and failures in the pursuit of the ultimate "hang". A bit about me, I camp often with my 2 sons in scouts, my oldest has taken a liking to hammock camping and I'm curious if its something I replace my tent set up with. so far we have: ENO double nest, with a separate sock style bug net and onetigris underquilt. DIY 11' Polyester fabric and DIY 13' 1.8 ripstop nylon. I'm a big boy at 6'3" 280#'s which is why I'm leaning towards boarder line ludacris size hammocks. So many questions!! I'll see ya'll on the fourms.....

    hello from across the green bridge.
    I'm pretty similar build - I find the ENO has to much stretch for me - so have ended up with couple other fabrics. Have also gone with suspension like poly straps or whoopies to couter the effects of gravity.
    Good luck - and you are doing good for the boys too.
