Thread: Byer Hammock?

    Default

    Ok... my friend got one (for indoors sleeping) and so I have seen one in person. Comparing it to my homemade speertype (with substandard material)

    BYER
    pros
    bugnetting is nicer
    folds SMALL
    very light wieght

    cons
    string ends not good
    short
    did not like bugnet ridgeline over the top.

    MINE (speertype)
    pros
    webbing attachments
    longer (fabric tapers right to the end)
    bugnet ridgeline on inside
    made it myself
    has gear pocket

    cons
    doesnot fold as small
    is heavier than the byer
    bugnet hard to stay taught
    not good bugnet (gotta get me some noseeum)

    titanium
    just call me TH
