One tip I have is to put a different color carabiner on the right side when hung with the zipper facing me!
This allows me to always know when I hang it I know what side the entry is facing! Makes set up quick with no guess work.
Lastly always pack a rain fly with it’s own ridge line separate. The main reason for this is if the weather gets bad you can deploy it first then once it’s taught you can deploy your hammock and gear out of the weather.

Stop making awesome stuff, I have 4 kids and they steal my gear and then I have to buy 5 of everything lol 😆 This would pair well with the snugpak xl jungle blanket

A handy sleeping pad in a hammock starts with one of Walmart’s notorious, blue foam pads. Cut it the length from the top of your head to your knees plus 12”. I’ve hammock camped for years, and no, you don’t need a pad below your knees.
At the head end of the pad, cut off the corners. From an upper corner, mark at 15” along the long edge. On the top end, mark in 8” along the short edge. Mark a line between the points and slice it off. Do the same on the other top corner.
The two corners can be duct taped together along the diagonal edges. Makes a seating pad, a kneeling pad, and a door step for the hammock or tent. The large chunk that you cut off the bottom will be useful somewhere else.

Has anyone have a difficult time getting out of the hammock?
When I swing my legs over to get out, I’m sitting so deep, the material cuts into the back of knees. I also need to swing the hammock back and forth to just try to touch the ground.
I’ve had used many other double wide hammocks, I haven’t had any problems getting out of those hammocks.

Could you take a swagman roll or poncho liner and stuff it into the bug net (upside down) to use as a makeshift under quilt in the winter or would that not give enough loft to be effective?

Dave, where can I get a camo coat like yours? What’s it called? Thanks!

[MrRob]

Ok, I gotta ask. Why are you wearing a jacket at the end of June? Nice looking hammock 👍

[charlesdriggers]

That's a starter hammock? I don't see you needing anything else.

Your beard gives your face a look of just a happier person .. nothing wrong with the previous Dave appearance, , just gives you a more jolly appearance

[philiprish]

I've often wonder ....in a lightening storm are those straps conductive?

[snovak]

Hammock time! I would pay for the name alone, Mr. Pathfinder.
I'm gonna need to check your hat for foreign substances sir.

Your hammock with integrated bug net and included tree straps is more compact than my DD single layer hammock with separate tree straps and separate bug net. That alone makes me think this is a good hammock. Also... I think I paid about 50 dollars for just the hammock... so... that sounds like a money saver as well.

Thanks for the video and for offering the hammock in a subdued color and not florescent blue or bright pink or whatever like you would have to buy otherwise. Probably eventually have to grab up one of those myself

To>Dave C. I looked on your Amazon link but I couldn't find the Hammock in the video. Also I'm interested in the Receiver Mount for my Truck as there aren't many trees in the N.W. Arizona Desert where I live.

There's a lot to like about this setup. Once you lay in an eleven foot you won't go back to a shorter hammock.
I have those straps on one of my hammocks. Like the colors it comes in as well.
Looks like you got everything right... good job. Price is reasonable too.

Your living your best life. You deserve it. Hope your settled in the new house. What kind of watch you got there?

[busted_dyna]

What's the weight rating on it? Maybe I missed it. Dave you look about my size.... 100 % confident it'll hold you over time with no worries?

[JesseJ]

I know this is an old video, but I really appreciate how you sell quality equipment for every wallet. I know that in your store that even when its inexpensive it isn't cheap.

I was just thinking about a new hammock. 😁
