Sizing and Coverage
Choose ridgeline length to provide coverage beyond your hammock ends. Wider configurations extend protection farther down the sides; narrower configurations reduce material and weight.
Edge Configurations
Straight Edge: Includes eight standard tie-outs, with the option to add four additional tie-outs positioned halfway between the existing tie-outs along the ground-facing edges.
Catenary Cut: Features two curves along each side for a taut pitch. With double- or triple-pole systems, additional curves are incorporated to align with the pole and tie-out locations.
