WEIGHT CAPACITY:
NoGround adjustable poles have passed a 24 hour static 287# hammock load, and multiple nights with a 140# hammocker. In both situations the pole felt very solid. Because of variations in ground quality and geometric set-up there is NO guarantee of weight capacity. Use the system at weights greater that 220# with caution. As with all hammock related activities – Hang or use at your own risk.


Ground anchor suggestions:
Variabilities with soils and ground conditions make this the most problematic task. Not all methods will work in all places. There may be situations where none of the suggestions work. As with anything hammocky, test first, then hang at your own risk.
In almost all situations you will need two ground anchors per pole for stability.
Natural objects: Anything that is firmly in place and you can attach a rope to can be your anchor. Small boulders, trees too far away or too small for a traditional use, cracks in rocks, logs, etc. can make excellent anchors.
Guylines:
Use only guylines that are capable of fully supporting your hammock. I use 7/64 amsteel. Each guyline should be a minimum of 7-1/2 feet long (this ensures a 45 degree or less angle with the ground). Longer is better. The shallower the guyline-to-ground angle is, the less force the stakes have to hold and the better holding power they have. Spread the guyline anchor points about 5 feet apart or between 60 to 30 degrees apart. The farther apart the anchors are the more laterally stable the system will be.

Other notes:
If the ground is soft, or if you need a little extra pole height, put a stable object under the foot of the NoGround pole. This can keep the tip from sinking in, or can increase the effective height without sacrificing pole strength.

Truss line adjustments:
Each truss line has a small whoopie loop at the end for adjustments to each truss line. Adjustments are made without tension on the line. The small line stops to keep the truss end caps in position will slide (with force) if they need repositioning.
