Hey guys, I just noticed that DD Hammocks has some new products for their hammocks out including underblanket, tarps, and sleeping bag liners. Just an FYI: http://ddhammocks.com/products.php
Also does anyone know how their underquilts compare to others? If not, what is your favourite underquilt?
Any specs on the Underblanket?
Not that I have been able to find. This is all they have listed online:
Underblanket £72
Size: Fits all DD Hammocks
Colour: Olive Green
Weight: 1kg (approx)
Includes: Stuff/ compression sack
Currently Low Stock - Be Quick!
Hammock Underblanket designed by Ian Dent-Willoughby and made by Snugpak. Compatable with all DD Hammocks.
Do I smell another group buy forming?
I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

I have emailed the company looking for specs on their "Underblanket". If they are down-filled, I would be interested.
I just had a quick glance at the site http://www.snugpak.com/.
No down in sight!
So i kind of doubt it's made of down.
Shame really, 'cause it's based in Europe for a change
At 72 UK pounds, that equates to $133.49 US dollars. Add the shipping, you are talking over $150 US at least. Too much for a UQ made with man-made insulation, IMO. Too bad, I'd like to see what these are all about.
Yeah I agree, if it is synthetic filling the cost is too much (too bad).
Anyone know if there was a product review by the group DD Hammock purchase?
i have just received one of these and the top quilt and they wer £62 .i am very pleased with them ,maybe a bit heavy for some of the people on here who are keeping weight to a minimum.i knew the quality would be great from ths company though i already have a coule of sleeping bags.i would also recommend the westwinds ventile cotton range of clothing on the snugpak website ,i have the tempest and also have a home made customised smock made from ventile and in my eyes i the best material for outdoor clothing,does anybody else have anything ventile!
1kg for a quilt. That's ridiculously heavy for a quilt.
I'd go with a JRB. Much lighter, and made with down.
