Anybody got any opinions on the http://www.survivalaids.com/highlander-nomad-hammock-tarpaulin-system thinking of getting one it's about my budget with tarp as the tarp seems to be the most expensive part.

I've never owned a Nomad but it always seems to me that tarp is way to small to be effective. Any sort of heavy weather is going to see you getting wet. I'd recommend checking out Tenth Wonder Hammocks, I own a couple their hammocks and tarps. They seem to be a bit short on stock at the minute but if you can hang fire I'd get a sargasso tarp (no doors around £30) and a XL Hammock. If you need the bug net the Hornet range are good too but I only use mine if I know I'm going somewhere really midgie.
Thanks that looks quite good i would only use it during the summer when im on a scout camp not much longer than 3 days really so i might get the nomad i did look at the TW hammocks they are in my budget but then the tarp is extra i can see that not many people have actually done a review on the Nomad hammock so if i get one i will do a proper review on this as well.
the nomad tarp is pretty useless when its raining and windy. better off with a tw hammock and keep your eye out for someone selling a tarp on here
HillBill I'll get caz to contact you about that as she's paying for it for my birthday
