These look like an interesting concept, creating more tension in a hammock by using 3 anchor points.
$1280 seems a little steep for a polyester shelter though. I imagine a silynylon one could quite easily dip under the 2kg mark?

I think the concept will promote the idea of finding the "perfect spot"
"hey honey, how about those three trees ?"
dunno – looks useless to me…
what would one do with such a shelter…
and no – it won be under 2Kg since you need the long strong straps and adjustment system
Seriously I would forget the backpacking/hiking market and look at the resort/eco-tourism side of things.
Done in heavy canvas (or something like that) they could last a few years and create a point of difference.

Could be a good way to give parents a night free from the kids…
There is a lot of material in that setup and then there is the ladder. Even using some of the lightest materials available, it would weigh much more than alot of the heavier hammock set ups.
Besides, at 2 o'clock in the morning, I would forget I was up in the air that high and fall right out when I have to go relieve myself.
I love them. Can I just use this instead of a house?
