This is an awesome product. Great design and a quality buildThis is an awesome product. Great design and a quality build. Has an integrated stuff sack so it’s never lost. Drawstrings so you can snug it down around your pack. Light but strong, it packs down to about the size of an orange. Very multi-use. This will be on my must-take list for every hike.

What kind of fabric is UBC?

The UBC normally uses silnylon fabric. However, if you wanted it made out of different fabric we can always do custom work.

Brilliant designSpeaking of brilliant, my coworkers were all kinds of jealous as I lounged in my 2T’s to view today’s eclipse! It packs down to pocket-size (in its own pocket), weighs next to nothing, covers your pack (and/or YOU) in the rain, and is comfy as all get-out. Super versatile, reasonably priced, fantastic workmanship. This “pack cover” (the least of its uses for me) comes highly recommended – GET IT!

Can this hammock chair be made in the Hexon 1.6 or 2.4 fabric or a fabric that can support a higher amount weight for bigger guys?

admin –
Yes we can make it in a 1.6 or 2.4 however you will loose some of the versatility of the chair as this can double as a pack cover. We have also done a double layer to keep the chair waterproof and it will increase the weight limit on the chair. However this will also increase the over weight of the chair as you now have two layers of fabric.

I’d like to know what you would recommend for the lightest and cheapest options for suspension. What should I purchase in addition to the chair to hang on your average size trees while keeping it lightweight as possible?

I would recommend going with the whoopie sling suspension and then you can purchase the spider 1.5 webbing and do a marlin spike hitch.

I just came back from a backpacking trip in Yosemite and I added this as my one luxury item. It ended up being a very useful all purpose accessory and will now be permanently in my gear list. I originally thought to bring this as my possible shower (only use it did NOT get). Day one we got caught in an unexpected hailstorm and downpour. All weather reports were for clear skies the entirety of our trip, so this quickly became a pack cover and it worked really well. The next night we ended up camped on a ridge and I used this as an extension to my tarp to keep out the draft. It was also used as a water bucket to share some water that we needed to filter and then finally it saw one use as a chair for a lunch break trail nap.

I got this on sale Fall of 2018. I thought Chair & Pack Cover. This has become my GoTo Gear Sling as well by adding a couple UL Whoopie Slings. Keeps my pack off the ground & critter free. Had to go to the ground one time and this made an Excellent Ground Sheet to protect my Hammock & Thermarest 48″ Pad so I could turn my Hammock into a impromptu Bivy. Worth every penny I paid for it.

Let me begin by saying that this is most versatile piece of equipment I own, hands down. It’s a great product, but nowhere is there instructions on a proper hang for chair mode. Took me a little over 2 hours, which is ridiculous seeing as I own a Chameleon Complete system. Also, if you’re unsure about suspension just get the beetle-buckle with sewn-in clips. Whoopie Slings are cool, but nowhere near long enough for thicker trees.
Dutch, a video showing proper hanging angle/tips and tricks (I keep sliding down plus getting leg pinch while sitting) for the chair would be great, as it shouldn’t take 2+ hours to get a proper hang on this.

The weight limit on the chair will have a maximum of 225lbs. Any of the suspension options that we have will accommodate that limit.

Question

I bought one of these a while back because I thought it was something that could be used in a lot of different and helpful ways—and I was right. One of the ways I was planing to use it was as a gear hammock. After tinkering with it under the hammock, to the side of the hammock, and over the hammock (but under the tarp), I settled on placing it over the hammock. But, while that allows me to set the hammock up at a normal height off the ground, it forces me to set my tarp up higher than normal which can be difficult depending on the hang and can also expose you to the elements a bit more depending on the size of your tarp. So, I recently got to thinking that since it is waterproof I could possibly hang it separately from the hammock and outside the tarp while still having the contents protected from rain (as long as I wrapped everything up properly. BUT… I wanted to confirm that is correct before I tried it out and learned the hard way that I had made a bad decision. Normally I keep my backpack and my shoes in it to keep them off the ground and from getting wet. Anyway, would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks in advance.

The design is simple and very functional. Just got back from a trip to the alpine lakes wilderness in Washington. I set it up as a hammock chair at first, but after rain the first night, I rigged it around the whole group’s hanging food. It kept everything dry. Also used it as a temporary tarp to wait out some rain. It was tight, but four of us stood under it. Love this multi use piece of equipment.

Can you make one with dyneema fabric? If so, what we would it cost, what weight load could it handle, what benefits and detriments would you anticipate with such a fabric substitution.

Odd question… is the UBC fabric equally water resistant on both sides?

Alex Thomas –
Yes. This is made from our Silnylon fabric that is evenly coated on both sides.
