2010 DD Travel Hammock Review – DD Hammocks
This is a review of the 2010 DD Travel Hammock.
It Now comes with 2 zips (one either side of mosquito net) allowing quick entry / exit either side of the hammock and also allows you to tie the mosquito net up above you, out of the way, when not needed.
As before, this hammock has fine mosquito netting which keeps out all insects (including the dreaded British midge). Entry is via one of two side zips each with two double-sided zippers.
Features include two waterproof base layers so if needed (no trees) it can be set up on the ground as a basic bivi/tent, see pictures. The hammock also features two small internal pockets which are great for storing a torch, phone etc as well as three velcro patches between the two layers to help keep a thermarest/pad in place if cold weather camping. Now comes with an extra 2m elastic cord to create a ridge line inside the hammock to hold lightweight gear such as glasses etc.
You also have the option to lie out in the open (without mosi net) – simply tie the hammock up with the mosi net underneath the hammock.
With the waterproof floor this hammock can be used anywhere and along with our Tarp is the ultimate lightweight camping system!

@Roboflux….. Your question was answered in the video. Water will always take the shortest route down with gravity. Watch it again and listen carefully at 5:19 and at 7:46 .

Nice job Ashley. I found Hennessy does the same thing with their stuff sacks. Just a little too small. Especially the one for the underpad. 5/5

Hi, why do you use two carabiners on both sides?
Also, you could fasten the insekt netting on the midle loop on the nett, then you save some bungy cording.
