Comments
There is a discrepancy between the figure used for the hammock in the main description and the final table. The answer is the sum total from the final table BUT if you do as I did to add up all of the weights as you read through the description you arrive at a different answer, one that is not offered in the Competition Question.
I'm also unable to find any confirmation information on their website
I was asked by UKC not so long ago whether I wanted to test a hammock system for a future review. It looked a clever and well made product, but I just genuinely couldn't think of any use I would have for it, as nowhere that I camp either on a campsite or not, necessarily has the trees to hold the hammock.
I know hammock systems really have their partisan fans - but does anyone use one in the UK? It just seems you would be so limited in places where you could pitch it, either on sites or wild camping.
I do a large amount of hammock camping in the UK. It is more restrictive in location but can be much more discreet than a tent. I personally find hammocks insanely comfortable and enjoy the experience more. Only use it for wild camping really and always have a tent in the car for the options but you can definitely make it work quite easily.
Hi Toby my preference for camping depends on elevation, but if i know i am likely to be below the treeline then hammock and tarp are my go to. it does take time to get used to, initially if feels quite exposed and vulnerable.
