Hammock Help

[buckley]

Hi guys,

After attending the xmas bushmoot, and only using my DD hammock for one night, I realised that it was too small for me and that I would be more comfy in something a bit bigger.

I am now looking to sell my DD hammock, and replace it with a hennesy ultralite explorer, does anyone of any experience of these hammocks, and does anyone know of a decent stockist in the UK?

Cheers,

Just to let you know DD hammocks have just got bigger, check out their web site Here .A lot cheaper than a Hennessey.

Yes I saw there website earlier this week, I know a hennessy is about four times the price, but I am really taken with them! Expensive but an excellent product none the less. I may consider asking DD for a refund or something, as it isn't much use to me.

I think I may be getting one from my partner for xmas, but she keeps asking for a stockist in the UK! Hence the previous post.

I came across a long hammock at Penrith Survival which looks similar to the group buy ones.

Not sure about the quality though as I haven't seen it in the flesh.

Just got an explorer of ebay brand new with tags from the states for £62, well chuffed!

I have an explorer asym, and i highly recomend it.

Because you lie asymetricaly to the arc of the hammock, you acctually lie flat. Most hammocks dont let you do this.

The most comfortable night i have ever had.

An underblanket bought on a group buy is a must for all year hammocking.
