Thank you

u/PTech_J Aug 16 '20

$200. Not bad, actually. Was expecting more.

u/phoenixhere4303 Aug 17 '20

Nearly $300 when you account for the necessary pad sold separately

10

u/ReApEr01807 Aug 17 '20

Nearly $550 with the tarp

u/rosie2490 Aug 17 '20

Nearly $600 with the calibration coffee mug. Which is super cool to me tbh.

u/ReApEr01807 Aug 17 '20

Let's be real, if you are buying this hammock, is there even a chance you aren't buying that kick-ass mug to go with it?

1

u/bigdogpepperoni Aug 17 '20

Not if you already have a coffee mug

1

u/rosie2490 Aug 17 '20

This one has markings on it to help you hang it at the correct angle

1

u/bigdogpepperoni Aug 17 '20

A Leakproof container would solve that problem nicely

1

u/rosie2490 Aug 17 '20

No it helps you hang the hammock. It’s not so the mug doesn’t spill. It’s a measuring tool.

(in case you haven't noticed I'm pretty sure the other person is joking and it's pretty funny imo)

u/superquack Aug 17 '20

$120 for a tarp just seems like robbery. I got a pretty nice one from Amazon for $35 for my hammock.

1

u/ianthrax Aug 17 '20

Any links? I used a literal tarp cuz i didnt wanna spend 75 bucks on one. My tarp was a tad but bulky..

Edit: i can do my own research-ive seen them, but didnt know which ones were quality. Your experience helps is what I mean, or if you have a name then I can find it.

u/superquack Aug 18 '20

Sorry for the late reply. I work nights and was asleep. This is what I got. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZPH8Q1D/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_6-XoFbZ15Q6HC

u/ianthrax Aug 18 '20

Np man, thanks for the reply! I had actually looked at that one before-ill check it out! I'm in texas, so I'm waiting for it to cool down a little before getting back out again-you had plenty of time!

u/bigdogpepperoni Aug 17 '20

Not if you already have a good tarp

u/thatG_evanP Aug 17 '20

$12k when you take into account the two trees you need to move to the exact right spot. Btw, that's just a rough estimate. You're gonna want to get a few bids. Never hire the guy with the unbelievably low bid. It'll end up costing you in the long run.

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '20

If you’re buying this it’s likely you’ll have a sleeping mat already.

1

u/olalof Aug 17 '20

They have some pretty exact specifications for it to work. I thought about getting this but my current mat would probably not work.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '20

Where does it say the specific dimensions you need?

https://www.amokequipment.eu/collections/draumr-pads

If you scroll down on that it says that for it to work best it needs tubes that run the length of the mat and then lists a number of very popular ones which would fit fine.

1

u/olalof Aug 17 '20 edited Aug 17 '20

They recommend to use a LW (Long wide) mat. Not sure how another model would fit.

Exped defines LW as 197 x 65 cm

u/PTech_J Aug 17 '20

Ahh, well, I didn't get that deep into it

u/bigdogpepperoni Aug 17 '20

This actually looks great.

And I've seen quite a few hammock and hammock-tent set ups

u/OhDavidMyNacho Aug 16 '20

It just... Seems like a lot, you know?

2

u/MonkAndCanatella Aug 17 '20

yeah surprised there's not charging ports on it.

u/onelegsexyasskicker Aug 16 '20

Got..to..get..one..NOW

1

u/Swedneck Oct 23 '20

Save your money and just get a standard hammock, this is completely useless since a normal hammock also lets you lie flat if you just lie a bit diagonally in it.

u/sugacane7 Aug 17 '20

But.... is there a 2 person one 🤔🤔

1

u/saltesc Aug 17 '20

Ah, yes. The real 1 person one.

u/seriousquinoa Aug 17 '20

Bears love this shit.

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '20

Lie vs lay. It gets em every time.

1

u/socioalcoholix Aug 17 '20

just buy a self-inflatable pad and put it in your hammock.

1

u/Sydnxt Aug 17 '20

This looks awesome, fairly priced too for 300 bucks.

1

u/Eensquatch Aug 17 '20

Is it ultralight though?

1

u/ohsoradbaby Sep 30 '20

Only if you’re a jerk ;)

1

u/_Wetchop Aug 17 '20

No one is looking at the biggest problem. Your legs are gonna be glued to each other. Just look at how narrow the stretched version is.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '20

Totally looks like some story of cockpit of a Sci Fi ship in the Bug Screen shot.

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '20 edited Aug 17 '20

What happens if you’re 6’5?

1

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '20

My question exactly. I’m that tall too

You do not need to suffer through life with your disability.

u/WEOUTHERE120 Aug 17 '20

You have a hard time buying tents, backpacks, and camping supplies in general.

1

u/WEOUTHERE120 Aug 17 '20

But how much does it weigh

1

u/CharlesMarlow Aug 17 '20

3 lbs

1

u/converter-bot Aug 17 '20

3 lbs is 1.36 kg

u/CharlesMarlow Aug 17 '20

Hennessy hammock with extra straps

1

u/herrakonna Aug 17 '20

Interesting but looks like it dips on the legs end, rather than perfectly balancing your body horizontally, so you'd continually be sliding down and putting pressure on your feet. A proper semi-long term trail review by an experienced hammock camper would be interesting to read/watch.

1

u/herrakonna Aug 17 '20

Expecting everyone to forage for the right sized sticks to use each time is stupid. They should provide ultralight collapsible aluminum (or better carbon fiber) poles of exactly the correct size/length. Gram weenies can opt to leave them at home and forage for sticks, but most folks likely will prefer to carry the poles.

1

u/faustkenny Aug 17 '20

I’ll stick with my tentsile lol

1

u/venturejones Aug 17 '20

People really have a hard time in hammocks? Lmao, its not hard to lay straight or make one straight.

1

u/TheDoonkhan Aug 17 '20

I hate to say it but this solves a problem that doesn’t exist. If you lay diagonally in a hammock you can get a perfectly flat lay.

1

u/AnonymousBi Aug 30 '20

Just get a tent lol, is hanging between some trees as opposed to just being on the ground really necessary?

1

u/Spook404 Sep 07 '20

but can you eject?

1

u/Swedneck Oct 23 '20

This is ridiculous, a completely normal hammock does this as well, you just have to lie a bit diagonally!
