I know some (all?) of you do not like this. I was hesitated at first. I have two of the originals and actually do not have a need for a new version. And this is not the type of the KickStarter I personally like - feels like a begging of money which normally is done over bank counter from the bank manager.
If you have a sound company with good business idea why not to get money through normal channels: saving, loaning and asking from investors. Best of KickStarter products are so out of this planet nobody will lend money for them even if the product is good and needed - at least I think that is the biggest reason for KickStarter to be there in the first place. But this is just a redesign that should have not be need if the Alpine hammock would have been made right at the first round.
But on the other hand. Maybe my Alpine hammocks will eventually wear and tear and I will need a new one. There is no similar product at the market and I think there should be. Product is excellent and the new version will be even better. And maybe boys have learned some lessons from the first campaign.
So I will again be a proud supporter and hope at least some of you will see the greatness of this products idea.
Give them money - Every dollar counts!
