Bushmen Ultralight Hammock might be the lightest on the market full-size, 3m x 1.45m hammock. It weighs only 150g. Ultralight micro-ripstop 15D nylon is convenient, breathable, and pleasant to the touch, which ensures comfortable rest. It is also very strong. With its extremely low weight, the hammock can hold loads up to 130kg. The green color blends into the natural surroundings. If you are fed up with every unnecessary gram you need to carry with you, hammock ULTRALIGHT is a real treat for you.
Tensioning system
The set includes two 3mm Dyneema cords with a tensioning system, the so-called Whoopie slings. They allow easy to hang the hammock. It is enough to hook the ear of the tensioning system by passing it through the hammock loop. Then, insert the tightening tension loop into the target mounting location.
Finally, adjust the position of the hammock using the whoopie slings and… conveniently arrange yourself in the hammock.
Accessories
For greater comfort, we added a ridgeline with a mesh pocket. Thank you that your valuable items will be always with you. During the journey, you can keep your tensioning system, ridgeline, and any other items in your pocket and know that nothing is lost. If you are in a hurry and you do not have time to pack the hammock into the bag or the hammock is still damp, you can always push it into the mesh pocket. The pocket is almost twice as large as the hammock bag, so it is easier to dry the hammock. Then put the accessories in the bag of the hammock. It will probably not be very elegant, but it is fast and practical. In the middle, the hammock has a loop on which you can hang the bag (e.g. from a tarp). You can keep there some small items such as glasses or others that did not fit into your pocket.
Bag
Ultralight hammock is packed into a tiny bag with clever construction. The cover combines the advantages of a traditional bag and the “BISHOP-BAG” type cover. One hammock loop passes through a specially reinforced hole in the bottom of the bag. For this reason, the hammock is intuitively easy to unfold – like from a “sleeve”. It is also easy to pack – like a traditional bag. At the bottom of the bag, there is an additional loop, which can be used as a safety measure. It prevents the hammock from getting lost. Last but not least – having packed the hammock into the bag, its dimensions are 15 x 5,5cm. That is the size of a can with a capacity of 350ml.

Very compact and lightweight. Easy to pack in the bag that comes with it. Seems incredibly strong despite the light fabric, and it is large and robust enough for a guy my size (100kg 194cm). Comfortable, does not buildup condensation.

It is an extremely light hammock that packs into a really small space, suitable for light camping.
Only hung on it a few times, so I don't have much experience with that hammock yet. The durability and longevity of the product is a bit questionable, it clearly requires care from its user to remain intact.
A handy packing bag into which the hammock can be stuffed straight back after use without it having to touch the ground.
The material in the hammock is a bit slippery, you can see if you can properly relax and sleep in a diagonal position.
The size is good for me, but I am less than 170 cm tall and weigh 60 kilos. I can't judge how tall or big a person can still comfortably use this.
