Installing your SnakeSkins
Untie the knots on the ends of the support ropes and remove the webbing straps.
Thread each rope into the wide end of the snake skin and out the small end. Put the webbing strap back onto the rope and secure with one overhand knot at the end of each rope.
The skins stay gathered on the ropes. Snake skins can be used to collapse the Hennessy Hammock only, the fly only or both the fly and the Hennessy Hammock together, depending on how it is set up on the hammock.
How do I use SnakeSkins?
To collapse your Hennessy Hamock into the snake skin, release the side adjustment cords for the rain fly and the Hennessy Hammock. Reach under the hammock, grab all four cords and fold them into the rainfly as you roll up the Hennessy Hammock inside the fly.
Holding the rolled Hennessy Hammock in one hand, simply wrap your hand behind the reinforced ring at the larger end of the gathered snake skin and slide it over the rain fly and Hennessy Hammock to the mid point.
Do the same from the other end and the whole Hennessy Hammock disappears into this two inch diameter sleeve.This can take less than 10 seconds if you are not trying to be super neat or maybe 30 seconds if you are fussy.
No more folding, rolling or stuffing it into a sack, just untie it from one tree, coil it up and untie it from the other tree and throw it into your pack or tie the waterproof coil onto the outside of your pack.
