JUNGLE HAMMOCK & FLY
Undoubtedly, the most reliable and tested Jungle Hammock in the
world -- our Jungle Hammock is used by the Foreign Legion in French
Guiana, the Italian Marines, the South African Defense Force, the
British Special Forces, Irish Guards, Queens Guards, Navy SEALS, and
American Special Forces all over the world. We use the finest
materials and coatings, so the hammocks will perform in the most
trying environments for 5 years or longer. The Jungle Hammock is
designed for extreme wet jungle climates. We use rip-stop reinforced
waterproof nylon in Olive Green or Camouflage. The Hammock is 100%
waterproof, and there is a double bottom layer to slide a foam pad
in for snow and winter camping. Longer, stronger and heavier than
the Expedition Hammock, the Jungle Hammock can handle taller and
heavier people (up to 350 pounds or more). The Diamond shaped Rain
Fly Sheet has 4 reinforced attach points and comes with 4 lines.
Elastic cords hold the mosquito netting away from your face. This is
the finest hammock that you will find anywhere, and it is the most
comfortable hammock that you will find anywhere. The comfort comes
from our inner layer and the special cut of the hammock, that allows
room for your shoulders as you sleep. Many hammocks cramp your
shoulders and do not support your body. Also, you will appreciate
the roomy space inside the netting that does not make you feel
claustrophobic like other hammocks. Inside, you will find hanging
loops for lights and gear, and a mesh pocket for important items
that you would need in the dark. Our hammock is the best selling
mosquito-proof and insect-proof Hammock in the world. If you don't
need the mosquito netting, then just flip the hammock over and sleep
on the other side (with the netting hanging down below). The hammock comes with two
12 foot long (1/2" nylon web) straps. It is important to use the
Correct Knots in hanging the hammock. The
ends of the hammock are reinforced for the strap to pass through, and these
straps can easily be slid out and replaced by a longer rope if desired. This hammock can also be used on the ground or on
your bed as a personal "mosquito tent" if you don't like sleeping in
hammocks (or if there are no trees nearby). It also very useful for
keeping out snakes, scorpions and everything else while you sleep. The
lines can attach to a tree branch or a stick to hold up the netting away
from your face.
We
use a sturdy YKK zipper which you can open from the inside or the outside.
The Jungle Hammock is Extra Long and Extra Strong. The
dark colored netting is very fine mesh which is easy to see out of. It will
keep out mosquitoes, no-see-ums, and black flies, and the elastic cords will keep the netting away from your
face and body. In many countries of the world, with different types of
resistant malaria, sleeping sickness and dengue fever, the best prophylactic
is "not to get bitten." This hammock is designed to keep you from being
bitten from insects and prevent disease. If you

DIAMOND
RAIN FLY
The Diamond Rain Fly comes with 4 lines for the 4 attach points. There is also an additional long
line as a spare. The attach points on the corner of the Rain Fly are
reinforced with nylon web, and we suggest you use a double sheet bend for
attaching the line to the Rain Fly loops.
Double Sheet Bend Knot. The Diamond-shaped Rain
Fly Sheet is made of waterproof Ripstop Nylon (210T) and provides the maximum
rain shelter with the minimum amount of material. This rain sheet only has 4
attach points, so that you can tie two lines to the tree and then the other
two lines you can stake out perpendicular to the hammock. The rain sheet extends
50cm. beyond each end of the hammock. You can tie a knot in the line for the
rain to drip from, so that it does not run down the line to the rain fly, or
you can install a metal ring on each loop for the line to attach to.
When the water drips down the line to the metal ring, the water will
drip off the ring and not under the rain fly.

TESTAMENT
Hey Tom, I purchased the Jungle Hammock about a year ago. I have tent
camped, used a bivy and sometimes just a mat. I have two steel rods in
my back from a car accident about four years ago and ground camping in
remote areas leaves me tired in the morning with an aching back. Your
hammock has changed all of that. I now can sleep very well over rough
ground or anywhere and have no problems in the morning. Just the other
night I was out in very strong thunderstorms and heavy rain - I was
totally and completely dry the whole night. This product is very well
made. The sleeve for a sleeping pad is a great design idea, it works to
help provide insulation and keeps the bugs from biting through at night.
I now am able to enjoy the outdoors again in total comfort. All I can
say to anyone reading this is buy this hammock. It will be the best
money you have ever spent on outdoor gear period. Nate Friedl
