    Looking for a Gear Sling/hanging system

    So I have been looking for a while for a gear hanging system and I can't seem to find anything I like. The closest thing I have found is the ENO talon ridgeline system, and even that isn't that great. What I'm looking for is something that would either hang by my side or above me. I pee in the middle of the night by rolling the entire hammock and letting lose. haha so no underbelly system will work for me. DIY is an option I am ok with as long as I don't need a sewing machine. I know some of you guys have some sweet systems I could adopt so please show them off!

    This is probably gonna get moved to the General Hammock forum, so look for responses there 'cause it will get moved. You posted in a forum specifically dedicated to the vendor HammockGear, who makes hammock quilts and tarps.

    Lots of vendors here make custom ridgeline organizers, checkout 2QZQ.
    That said, when you do your little hammock roll.....keeping your gear dry in a RL organizer might become issue.

    I will be using a non-structural ridgeline not attached to my hammock in anyway so my roll will not affect it. I am a fan of the jacksrbetter bag there, I remember seeing that before but didn't know what it was called. Thanks for the help, I believe I'm leaning more towards a ridgeline organizer at this point. I wear glasses so I think that'll keep them safer over a sack type system like the jacksrbetter.

    MAD777 LOL that is not my set up just the one from Nite Ize web site. I guess they wanted to show you could hang your gear. I like the system because I also have their iPhone case which come with one of their Sbeaner as seen in the picture.

    I tried a gear hammock from the Jacks, since it doubles as a pack cover. It's a great system, just wasn't for me. I use a small cuben roll top stuff sack from zpacks for all my personal gear, and just clip it onto my ridgeline. I hang my platypus at my head with an s-biner so I can get water easily while in the hammock, and my pack hangs at the foot end, which I use to throw stuff in while I am at camp.
