Was out car camping over the weekend and I keep the original nylon daisy chain tree straps and Nylon Parachute fabric hammock in the camper full time.
I haven't used these in 2-3 years now. I set up the hammock waist high as normal and when I got in I sank to the ground. Nothing broke, I just forgot how much stretch there is. After ungracefully rolling out of the hammock I reset to about 4' to 4 1/2' off the ground and I still ended up with my backside only 8" off the ground. The setup is great for afternoon lounging in the campground. But much more fiddly than my Amsteel suspension I use on my backpacking rig.
