I'm thinking of buying a DD frontline hammock. I like the idea of the breathable material and its at a price I feel happy to pay (missed the group buy of course), but I know nothing about Hammocks. I have read through several posts on hammocks but I'm not sure if I am any wiser about the specifics.
Now in the grand scheme of things the DD hammocks are at the lower end of the price league (amongst the better makes), so can anyone explain the possible down sides of going with the DD.
I suspect, given the price, I will probably go with the DD, but for example the mosquito Expedition is £58 (with free worldwide shipping) and I would pay the extra if there was a convincing argument. Unless I've got it wrong it seem the Hennesey Hammocks come with tarps, but I was planning on using my exsiting Tatonka tarp, at least for now. They also want $60 to get it to the UK. So I suspect the only contender is the Mosquito.
As an extra point, I also like the idea of buying from a company based in my home county.
I'm 5' 10/11" and about 90kg so I suspect I won't have a specific sizing issue, that might affect the choice.
