Product description

Hennessy Hammock Cub Zip

A Complete Shelter System

Amazingly Comfortable

The Cub Zip is our smallest hammock for kids up to 5'4" and 120lb / 170 cm and 54 kg. We say it’s for children but this is not a toy. It has all the quality materials and features of the larger hammocks for a complete Hennessy shelter system. We think that it’s important that kids shouldn’t have to compromise to get a quality piece of gear. In recent years, to save weight, several smaller hikers have used this model to complete the full 2100 mile length of the Appalachian Trail.

Children under 12 must be supervised by an adult when using a hammock.

The Hennessy Hammock is a legendary piece of camping and survival equipment and has been the choice of epic expeditions exploring the full length of the Nile, Congo and Amazon Rivers, up to the Arctic, down into the deepest caves on Earth, and other extreme environments around the world. Every Hennessy is a complete, engineered shelter system. Built tough for years of service, every hammock is uncompromising in materials and workmanship.

All Hennessys include webbing straps, tightly woven fabrics and high quality support ropes, a matching detachable rainfly, a "no see um" mosquito mesh, a gear loft on the ridge line and a stuff sack with set up instructions on the back. Built tough for years of service, all of our support ropes and webbing straps are six times stronger than the weight rating of the hammock.

We believe it is essential to include complementary webbing straps with each hammock to prevent damage to the tender bark of small trees. The Hennessy Hammock has almost zero impact and is an excellent example of a “Leave No Trace” shelter.

Experience a level of comfort on the trail almost as good as your bed at home and maybe even better. The patented asymmetrically shaped hammock supports your back and knees like a quality contoured mattress off the ground.

Tall or large campers and campers with injuries, sore joints, bone spurs or back pain tell us about finding their first night of comfortable camping in many years with the larger Explorer Deluxe or Safari Deluxe models. You will wake up in the morning feeling great. Some owners of Hennessy Hammocks claim that they come home from their adventure feeling better than when they left. Some report that they tossed out their beds when they got home from a hike and set up their hammock in the house.

Patented entrance on the bottom automatically snaps closed under the weight of your body and seals with velcro.

The "Classic" bottom entry works great when you are being followed by a cloud of mosquitoes. When you duck your head down to open the bottom entrance, the mosquitoes don't know what you're doing, so they get out of the way for a few seconds. Before they know what's happened, the door has snapped shut and you are on the inside and they are on the outside.

Zips closed with a full length, heavy duty #10 YKK zipper on one side between the mesh and the bottom fabric.

One advantage of the zip model is that it's a little easier to set up your bedding but the mosquitoes also find it easier follow you in and join you for a snack later, so double check for intruders before you zip up for the night.

Hennessy Hammock is a small family run company whose only mission is to continually improve the evolution of hammock design.

The inventor, Tom Hennessy, has been sleeping in hammocks for over 60 years and experimenting with designs for over 40 years. He made over 50 prototypes and beta-tested his designs for six years before getting patents and going into production.

Triangular Mesh Gear Pocket, Glove Hooks, Carabiner Loops, and included Webbing Straps.

A nifty gear pocket slides on the ridgeline and stores out of sight behind your head. Two glove hooks are also threaded on the ridgeline and can be used for attaching LED lights and even attaching a drink can by the hole in the pull tab. All hammock ridge lines are installed with a loop on each inside hammock end to which a small carabiner can be hooked to hold daypacks, water bottles, and other small items which are too heavy to hang over the ridge line.
