Have you also tried a Hennesy (spelling)? It would be nice to know what the differences are apart from price

Hi there
Following this review and the recommendations of a friend of mine I've got a DD Travel Hammock this week. First thing I did after watching the Youtube videos by Grizz alias Professor Hammock, was to swap out supplied webbing with a 4m length of 4mm 330kg Climbing chord at each end. Then out of some 10mm climbing webbing I made two tree straps with a loop in one end, its stiffer and less stretchy than that supplied,

My set up follows the video using a pair of Marlin spike hitches to adjust and secure the hammock. Very quick to set up no lashings or knots. It is smaller and lighter and quicker to set up than the supplied webbings.
