What would you like to know? They've very comfy, you lie diagonally across them so you're pretty much horizontal.
The tarp you get with them is a bit too small for windy rain, theres a Hex fly you can buy extra which is gigantic.
Snake skins are covers which slide over the hammock from either meaning you can tie it to the tree first and then unwrap it.
If you're under 6ft an Expedition Asym will do but if you're over or over 18 stone you'll need the Explorer Deluxe.
Although it mentioned on the website you can use it on the ground with the absence of trees its really not practical at all.

I've used one for the last couple of years and found them excellent, if a little cold in winter without an underblanket. I don't suspect you'll have much of a problem out in the tropics unless you have a night time downpour.
I do think they are rather expensive, when compared to the DD or groupbuy hammocks. I'm not entirely convinced I would buy another now others are available, but at the time I bought mine, they were the only ones available that were up to the tasks I wanted it to cope with. Even then I had to purchase it from the US, they weren't available in the UK.
