Question 1

Kayak friendly? Small compact?

Accepted Answer

The bag with everything in it measures 2' long and 7.5" wide. Weight is manageable and would not be a concern on a kayak IMO. I would not describe it as small or light. I just kayaked up the Colorado this summer. I didn't use this but it would have worked well as a ground tent. With no rain and 100 degree nights I just used a tarp. When I purchased the tent, the bag was made of tent material so it has some ability to keep out water if splashed etc. I think this would be a handy kayaking option.

Question 2

The description says you can eliminate the Sleeping pad. What part of the design compensates for that?

Accepted Answer

I camped in mine 2 times so far.  First time hanging.  It was 40 degrees outside and to make it worst I had it hanging over top a cave entrance.  It was a long miserable night.  I wish I had a pad under me of rextra insulation.  2nd time was mid august and hot.  I used it on the ground as there was no-where to hang it.  Thats the idea,  it can be either.  I used a pad to cousion the ground.  I had to pull the rainfly back half way to get air.  It was too closed up and hot.  another thing is on the ground it is very low.  I sleep best on my side.  My upper arm was touching the top.  I like it best as a hammock.  I enjoy hammocks anyway.  I have my next trip planned.  Its going to be a cold weather backpack trip.  I plan to bring a pad and also a bag liner too ( didn't have last time ).  May even put hand warmers down in the bag by my feet.  Warm weather hanging,  I wouldn't even think of a pad.  Very nice hammock.  I also recommend tree hugger straps and a tention system called a whoopie sling.  google that.  Real aesome way to hang it.

Question 3

Could this hammock be hung from a portable hammock stand?  If so, what should the length, height of the stand be?  Thank you.

Accepted Answer

I hung mine on a hammock stand that is about 15 feet long and that was bought on Amazon.  It does not hang on the shorter stands like what Ikea sells.

Question 4

Is it free-standing when used as a tent?

Accepted Answer

We haven't used it on the ground yet, but the answer is yes.  You would just have to stake out the ends to the ground so that the poles stand up.  Simple.
