Hennessy Hammock Expedition Asym - Zip

Hennessy Hammock Expedition Asym Zip

New for 2011 - side entrance design with zip closure

This new Hennessy Hammock is a variation of the Classic Expedition Asym but instead of the Velcro bottom entrance the new hammock has a side-opening zip entrance.

If you have been shopping around looking at ultra-light outdoor camping gear and equipment as an alternative to a heavy tent this hammock might be the most important piece of outdoor kit that you ever buy!

With a little practice a Hennessy Hammock can be set up in 3mins. Sleeping in a hammock means no more roots, rocks and puddles coming through the floor of your tent and no more aching muscles and stiff joints from sleeping on the hard ground.

Tree covered and even sloping terrain is perfect for camping hammocks as they can be easily levelled out but with the addition of a couple of walking poles or sticks Hennessy Hammocks also make excellent shelters/bashas.

Due to the totally unique design of The Hennessy Hammock Expedition Asym you’ll experience a level of comfort outdoors almost as good as your bed at home and maybe even better. The Hennessy Hammock Expedition Asym is the first hammock that supports your back like a quality mattress – you’ll wake up in the morning feeling great.

The Asym part of the name comes from the asymmetrical shape that is the key in the Hennessy design as lying on the diagonal is the secret for maximum comfort in hammocks. Hennessy Hammock designed the first hammock with a diagonal axis and moved the right side anchor point of the hammock down by the position of the knee and the left side anchor point up by the shoulder which makes the hammock feel longer with a wider 'sweet spot' of comfort. The designers at Hennessy then did the same for the rainfly and added 30% more fabric for excellent coverage.

The Hennessy Hammock Expedition Asym has built-in insect netting, mesh pocket on ridgeline and webbing straps to protect the bark of trees. The Expedition Asym is supplied in a hardwearing drawstring storage bag with full set up and care instructions printed on the back.

The waterproof rain-fly is polyurethane coated polyester ripstop nylon and may be tilted to any angle, rolled up above, removed or used separately.

Did not buy my hammock from RVops only because it was out of stock but as a previous customer of a good company that supports the troops i will write it here. Almost as close to design perfection as you can get, pretty much idiot proof to put up and blissfully comfortable to spend the night in, the ... » more...
