High Tech Hammock - Best Hammock Ever! (At least we think so).
High Tech Hammock - Best Hammock Ever! (At least we think so). Video Clips. Duration : 15.15 Mins.
I am uploading this video so people can have this Free -- FOR NON-COMMERCIAL USE ONLY. This is my own invention -- a new way to make a hammock. It is the culmination of many years of experimentation. It's the Easy Hammock on Steroids. I hope people find this useful. The price I was charging for the CD doesn't justify the effort and expense in Burning the CDs, buying the CD Envelopes, the Padded Shipping Envelopes Printing the Labels and Shipping. If you find my videos useful, you are free to Donate by going to my website hamacastaino dot com Thanks, Ray

Hammock Bug Net
Hammock Bug Net Tube. Duration : 5.55 Mins.
A modular mosquito netting for your hammock. This can be put on and taken off after the hammock is already set up. It also comes with its own carrying bag, weighs less than a quarter pound, and fits in a pocket. The materials are 9 feet of 5 foot wide mosquito netting, four ripstop nylon pockets, an extra scrap of fabric (for the top tie-off), and three sections of paracord, about two feet in length each. Of course, this is my design; feel free to modify it with whatever you have handy. My design was inspired by Risk's Quarterweight hammock www.imrisk.com . Actually, it was his website that inspired me to start making hammocks in the first place. I recommend you check it out. Filming was done with the help of my Snowpod, which I invented specifically for this video. Useful, if you have a lot of snow like we do in the mountains.

Rothco Military Style Jungle Hammock - Camo 2011
Rothco Military Style Jungle Hammock - Camo 2011 Tube. Duration : 8.80 Mins.
Hammock starts at: 1:30 Rothco Military Style Jungle Hammock - Camouflage version. The bottom is canvas and will be warmer in the fall and winter. That's the number one complaint about the newer high priced all nylon breathable(uncoated) cocoon type hammocks. You may not get as much breathable material in the summer time, yet it will not be hot at all as some may claim and will not be wrapping around your body. On the contrary, I find there is more ventilation through the side netting in this type hammock than the new top end nylon cocoon types. Lay is very flat when taut, as should be and normal in performance. You can sit or lean out to make your coffee in the morning like any other hammock design. The lean is every bit as stable as any hammock out there imo. Remember the top as well as the hammock is secured to a tree, your not going anyplace. Always use a rainfly over any Hammock and single wall tent! That's a must have to go with these while camping. The built in top in my opinion is nothing more than a way to hang the netting and block the sun. I found the Rothco camo version to be a bit larger both in length and in height than the texsport model. You will need about 50 feet of paracord or amsteel, tree huggers etc. and a stuff sack to go with this hammock. You may have noticed the tarp laying off to the side in the video? This is if i put the hammock to ground, basically hang it the same way but at ground level and use a footprint/tarp below it. Would work the same ...
