I love my Treeboat,  Thursday, 29 November 2007 I guess I'm one of those people who, for whatever reason, sleeps well in a Treeboat. In fact, I sleep better in a Treeboat than I do in my bed at home--the floating-on-a-cloud sensation sends me directly into a deep, blissful slumber. I solve the problem of how to bend my legs by splaying them in a sort of frog-like manner, with my knees pointing out to the sides. I fold my arms over my chest and I'm out. The only problem is that I snore a lot when I sleep on my back. That's OK, as it scares the bears away.

Rigging it up takes a bit of work, but I'm getting the "hang" of it. It's clearly well made, and safe and secure so long as one pays attention to the catenary effect on its gravitational pull. I plan on sleeping in my Treeboat even when I go car camping, if possible. I also plan to add the mosquito net and the tent.

Apparently this isn't for everyone, but it works for me. Good night ...

 OK, I'm a beginner ...,  Tuesday, 27 November 2007 ... so I haven't used enough gear to make the kind of comparisons needed to write useful reviews, for the most part. However, I have tried several helmets, and I like this one best. I assume that any of the popular helmets will do the job, so I'm primarily interested in comfort, and this helmet is far and away the most comfortable for me. It also adjusts easily and ventilates well. Thanks, Becki. ;)
