In reply to Sydney. I would argue that all whoopie slings are universal. Some retailers may recommend them for a certain hammock but it's mostly marketing.

Hi I noticed you mentioned the options of threading a whoopie sling or a continuous loop in order to enhance the suspension system. I was curious what whoopie sling would you suggest getting for this particular hammock? I was looking around and noticed that some are specified to certain hammock brands and some seem universal.

In reply to Liam Grice. My guess would be the length, but I am also drawn to some of my first hammocks. Nostalgia?

I fell in love with hammocking in the older version of this hammock with the nettle strings( sale price was10$,no netting). Even though there was a tangle factor, it was very long and light. After using a more expensive gathered end hammock, I will be going back and buying the same older style but with netting. The older version is still around, but looks like this is the replacement at Nearly 3 feet shorter. There was something about that type of hammock that was very comfortable. The fabric? The length? The strings?

In reply to Matt Brindle. Yes, of course! All gathered-end hammocks can do this. The difference with Hennessy is that the bug net is sewn with an asymmetric design, which prescribes the diagonal lay. Open hammocks, and jungle hammocks like the Kakoon allow you to lay diagonally in either direction (head left/feet right; head right/feet left).
