Title: New Tenth wonder hammock and Tarp Test
Post by: Grace. on July 28, 2011

Me and Oisin decided on the Tenth wonder hammock and tarp in the end. As it just came to over 50 pound for both each. Got them sent out on next day delivery and they arrived this morning.

We will be testing these out tomorrow night but we were just wondering what is the best knot to tie each end up with?

Those look very similar to DDs stuff. Will be interested in how they turn out. Think we need an overnighter in Donard Wood for some relaxing fun.

Here's a vid of Uncle Ray talking about knots for hammocks.

That sounds great. We will all have to work out a night that works for everyone soon :)

Will let you know how it goes when we get back.

Also might need to take the laptop with us so we can do those techniques lol.

Hopefully oisin will remember them. 0.o
