   [..YouTube..] Hammock is sagging over time. To avoid that use a Hitchcraft Monster tie that gives you split second adjustability and no need of any knots. )

   [..YouTube..] Hennessy owner for 4 years now. Love it. Not for winter camping though.

   [..YouTube..] I’m tempted by these hammocks, but I dunno. I have a seriously bad back from an accident, and though they say you can lay almost flat, it still looks to me like it sags and I’d have severe back pains in the morning. I haven’t seen any photos or video that show this “almost flat” thing they talk about.

   [..YouTube..] You lay in it kind of sideways (on an angle) and this is how you lie flat. I too have a BAD lower back and need to lay flat. I have found this a great way to enjoy nature, while keeping virtually pain free. If you have any other questions feel free to ask…

   [..YouTube..] How about upper back? I can’t have my head at much of an angle from my back at all or else I have problems… not only do I have a bad lower back, but also upper between my shoulder blades, etc.I actually sleep on the floor (with cushion) because I need a firm flat surface.I just wish I could get a “test drive” of one of these.I also have meniere’s disease, a vestibular disorder, and other vertigo from a head injury (same accident) so maybe this is a bad idea anyway - seasickness.

   [..YouTube..] If you wanted to test drive it you could always just order one and try it out. If it doesn’t work for you…return it. The hammock does sway a bit with the wind and your body movement, so that could exacerbate your vertigo.

   [..YouTube..] Thanks, I wasn’t sure if they allowed returns.

   [..YouTube..] Which model is this?

   [..YouTube..] i think those are the ‘ultralite backpacker’s; i have the UL explorer and it looks larger than the ones they have

    [..YouTube..] Just to say I have one of these too and a very bad back. It is the closest to pain free I can be whilst lying down. £100 hammock is way better than a £1200 memory foam delux mattress!!

    [..YouTube..] wow u guys set it up really high, arent u supposed to set it at chair height?

    [..YouTube..] Going to REI with my Seedhouse SL1 to return it for this tomorrow!

    [..YouTube..] that sucks you can hear the highway, lol

14. governmentrefunds , on August 17th, 2008 at 6:02 am Said:

    [..YouTube..] I want to set one of these way up in the tree so you actually have to climb the tree to sleep in it. It would feel cool to be up with the birds not the bears.

    [..YouTube..] HH’s are great, you should hang it from trees that are closer together, the less rope you use, the less it will sag.

    [..YouTube..] and what when it falls? :’<

17. manypersons , on September 20th, 2008 at 4:59 pm Said:

    [..YouTube..] it probably won’t unless u weigh more than 135kg

    [..YouTube..] and just in case I will have rope tide to my tactical vest or have more support on it.
