Patent-pending
Asymmetrical Shape
Lying on the diagonal is
the secret for maximum comfort
in hammocks. We have designed
the first hammock with a diagonal
axis. We call it the "A-sym".
We have moved the right side
anchor point of the hammock
down by your knee and the
left
side anchor point up by your
shoulder. This makes the hammock
feel longer with a wider 'sweet
spot' of comfort. Then we
did
the same for the rainfly and
added 30 percent more fabric
for excellent coverage (not
a feature of Cocoon, Expedition
2.5, Scout or Cub). |

Patented
"Snap Tight" Zipperless
Closure
Your weight tensions the entrance
which automatically snaps closed
behind you. |

Patented
"Perfect Set" Comfort
Curve
Integral ridgeline maintains
the same comfortable shape with
each use to keep your back straight
and level when resting on the
diagonal. |
| |
|
| • |
Patented
"Never-Tip" Center
Balance Design
Eliminates instability by entering
from the centre instead of flipping
over the side. This is the first
hammock that does not cause
you to lose your balance while
entering the hammock. |
| |
|
| • |
Bug-proof
Large area of No-See-Um
netting to provide ventilation
and keep insects outside the
hammock. When properly sealed,
the entrance design also makes
sure no bugs get into your hammock
at night while you are alseep
and also during the day when
you are away from camp. For
further information about bug
protection, clink on our mosquito/jungle
page. |

|
| • |
Windproof
The No-See-Um mesh and hammocks
fabric will deflect wind to
provide a calm space inside. |
| |
|
| • |
Waterproof
The rain-fly is polyurethane
coated polyester ripstop or
silicone impregnated nylon and
may be tilted to any angle,
rolled up above, removed or
used separately. |
| |
|
| • |
Nylon webbing
straps
These are attached to the
end of the suspending ropes
to protect the tender bark of
trees and provide greater span
for the ropes. We call them
"tree huggers." |
|
All hammocks
have these additional features
except the Adventure Racer,
Cocoon & Scout: |

Triangular
Mesh Gear Pocket, Glove
Hooks,
Caribinier Loops A nifty
gear pocket slides on the
ridgeline
and stores out of sight behind
your head - this can be used
to store your keys, pocket
knife, change and other small
personal
items. Two glove hooks are
also threaded on the ridgeline
and can be used for attaching
LED lights and even attaching
a drink can by the hole in
the pull tab. All hammocks
ridge
lines are installed with a
loop on each inside hammock
end to
which a small caribinier can
be hooked to hold daypacks,
water bottles, and other small
items which are too heavy
to
hang over the ridge line. It's
dark up in the corners and
you
have to look but they're there,
so - check it out! |

|
| • |
Full Velcro
Seal
Your body weight keeps the
entrance sealed when you are
inside the hammock but the Velcro
seal keeps bugs out while you
are away. The Velcro seal also
prevents unintentional opening
when flip/flopping around.
