Description

SnakeSkins are a patented instant stuff sack system that collapses your Hennessy Hammock in about 30 seconds. Your shelter never touches the ground, never gets dirty or muddy. It just disappears into two tapering tubes of silnylon which sit gathered on the ropes at each end of the hammock for amazingly quick set up and take down. For use with all Hennessy Hammock models. The 70 D poly hex fly requires an additional pair of snakeskins because the hex fly is bulkier than the standard rainflies. US Patent US6851137B2

I love these things!
These are just plain awesome! They make setting up my tarp such a breeze. I'm able to leave my ridgeline connected to my tarp so all I have to do is connect the ends of my ridgeline to the trees and my tarp is setup in seconds. These are especially helpful if you find yourself setting up in the rain as you can set your tarp up much faster and keep your hammock completely dry as you can finish your set-up out of the rain. Also nice to be able to tuck your tarp away and just hang in your hammock and enjoy the stars, and if there's a chance of rain, just pull these back, stake your tarp and your golden. Great concept and made of high quality material. Will probably buy another set to use for my hammock as well. Depending on your gear and personal preference, these do allow the room to stuff your hammock and tarp together. Personally, I like keeping my tarp seperate so I can throw my tarp up quickly if it starts raining and I need a dry place to cook a quick meal or just wait out a passing shower. ... show more

An absolute must have for hammock camping
Size: Snakeskins Style: Snakeskins XXL
The build quality is incredible, especially given how things and light weight these snake skins are. We have 3 sets and have used them for years! The XL is big enough for the hammock, bug net and under quilt. We've used them with several different hammock set ups from Eno (Double Nest) to Walmart brand hammocks and found it works great with all kinds. Highly recommend for hammock campers! ... show more

It's a must have
Size: Snakeskins Style: Snakeskins XXL
I got this relitively quick after purchasing a camping hammock and it's worth every penny. It makes the setup and teardown 70% easier. The longest part of taking my hammock down was trying to fold/wrap it up decently in the poorly made bag it came in. With the snake skin I can pack away the hammock within 5 minutes whereas it would originally take 15-20 minutes before. ... show more

Hennessy Snakeskins, work great on Hennessy Hammocks
Size: Snakeskins Style: Snakeskins XXL
Bought a Hennessy Deluxe Explorer, bought these snakeskins for the hammock, still fits inside original stuffsack. These skins fit the hammock as well as the standard rainfly that comes with them, they do not appear as if they will fit the hammock and a larger hex rainfly, but I admittedly have not tried that yet. They do not look like they will fit a hammock and UQ at all. Make for a quick and easy setup and takedown of your hammock. If you own a camping hammock I would definitely recommend these. ETA: I have tried using these with a larger hexfly and it will not work, I bought a 2nd "snake skin" for that. ... show more

Facilitated Tarp Deployment, Recovery and Storage
Our Hennessey Hammock Snakeskins (HHSS) provide us with facilitated tarp deployment, recovery and storage. The XL version of the HHSS works well with our Clark Vertex Rainflies (Tarps). They are large enough to accommodate: 1) most other tarps that are designed for use with single person camping hammocks; and, 2) small/compact camping hammocks. They will NOT accommodate our Clark NX-250 Hammocks. For us, the onetime setup process was a straightforward and required approximately 5 minutes per tarp. There are countless videos that demonstrate the setup and use of this product, so I won't belabor those points. Instead, I'll leave you with the following impressions: 1) Hennessey Hammock SnakeSkins work as designed; 2) If you value your time, they are reasonably priced; and, 3) They are simple pieces of gear that pay multiple dividends (time savings, improved organization, etc.) with each use. If you're looking for ways to simplify, organize and accelerate the set and strike/break camp processes, you might consider giving these a try. We did; and, we have enjoyed and appreciate their use, especially when setting or breaking camp in the rain. Out. ... show more

Well done, Hennesy!
I make a DIY winter tarp (instructions on ripstopbytheroll.com) that was 12 feet long to accommodate my 11.75 foot hammock. I made the hammock to my specifications because none of the commercially available hammocks fit me properfly. A tarp of this size was quite large and unwieldy, so I make snakeskins out of no-see-um mesh and it worked okay. These snakeskins worked like a charm. They were long enough and compressed the tarp enough to fit into a small stuff sack along with the hammock and straps. Its proved itself durable, and very easy to use. It has made pitching a tarp about a million times easier and would recommend this for anyone that wants to compress their hammock or tarp into a very manageable package. ... show more

Great product, wish I had thought of it!
Awesome time saver! I ordered these to go with my Hennessy Hex tarp to make storage and deployment quicker and easier. These definitely did the trick! They are a bit of a pain to put on the first time because the D ring on the tarp is just a little bit too large for the small end of the snakeskin tube, but once you get it on it makes packing and unpacking the tarp a breeze! Just connect it to the tarp ridgeline, get it tight, and you are ready to go! If it starts to rain you just slide the snakeskins back and your tarp is ready to be staked down. To pack it up you just roll the tarp up and slide the snakeskins back down. Saves the trouble of trying to stuff it back into a stuffsack. Definitely recommended for hammock campers! ... show more

Want fast setups and teardowns of hammocks or rain flys - use snake skins!
First off, snake skins are pretty light and make setting up a hammock and\or rainfly a snap. If you use these, the hammock or rainfly will never touch the ground itself which is nice when setting up. When it's time to tear down, it's just a matter of sliding them back over the hammock and throwing them into a sack. I use a sep. pair on a rain fly as well. I shake the fly off the best I can and use the snake skins for fast tear down. If needed, after a trip, I hang the fly up in the garage to dry more. I can't express how fast snake skins are for teardown so you aren't stuck trying to fold a large fly or hammock to get it back in to the bag. **The vendor that sells these on Amazon ships incredibly fast.** I use snake skins for a Hennessy Deep Jungle XL hammock and their Hex Asym Rainfly 30D rainfly. These weigh 2.3 oz (part #: 167) and will fit the Deep Jungle XL (this is one of the largest single person hammocks available) and the hex rain fly fairly easily. Hennessy also has another pair of snake skins that weigh 3.28 oz (#: P169) and have a wider diameter. If you use the Hennessy website or Amazon to order the snakeskins XL - you will receive the 2.3 oz version - you need to call Hennessy and specifically ask for the #169 version (which is currently only sold with the new larger hammocks). I use the larger diameter for the rain fly because I switched the stock cordage with thicker and longer pieces of paracord. Even with this change, these snake skins still worked, but it's very snug. The larger size just makes it easier to slide them off and on with the thicker\longer cordage. If you aren't doing any mods to the hammock or fly these will work absolutely fine for you - just posted the extra details for the people that use thicker paracord or bankline for extended trips to the woods. Hope this helps some one out. Attached a picture that shows the 2.3 oz version on the left (sold on Amazon) and the hammock version that you can get if you call Hennessy directly. **Again, if you haven't switched out the lines, this will work fine for you and shave a couple more ounces.** ... show more
