First look Amok Draumr ultralight 

Awesome welcome to the Amok gang hahaha, I have used my tarps a few times without seam sealing them the normal weight fabric fairs better in rain than the ultralight but I’m now going to seal both my skjold and skjold 10ul because water eventually got through on my last camp. My only advice would be to add some form of drip lines onto your hammock suspension, water is a pain for soaking down the straps, a bit of paracord or some metal clips will work or a full conversation to whoopie slings like I did with my camouflage 4.0 Draumr. Any other questions please don’t hesitate

@@TimRobson30 thanks mate, much appreciated. I haven't checked yet the hammock but I believe it's got some kind of rain drip integrated. Still I will take your advice and add paracord drip on the safe side. May I ask where you got your woopie sling from as I was looking at Dutchware ones. Time consuming from usa.

@@farid5661 DD hammocks stock a whoopie sling set mate it’s really good. Yeh the integrated water baffle isn’t very good unfortunately, they got it spot on with the 3.0 didn’t have one on the 4.0 and brought it back for the ultralight and the 5.0 but it’s not as good. Always here to talk amok!

It’s ggrrrrrrreat

That’s the Main reason I bought one of these hammocks all those years ago, I was never really comfortable in fathered end hammocks now I have space for my shoulders and to move around. All the best

It really is, the ultralight and the normal 5.0 are both serious bits of kit. All the best

It is that. All the best

Thanks for the comment I wish I had funds to go camping every single week but I struggle sometimes. All the best

Awesome I hope you manage to get out for some camping it’s a special way to spend some time. All the best to you

Thank you Andrew I can always count on you for a nice comment. All the best

Yes to this. It will be a nice one for hot nights. All the best

Don’t know why I missed this comment Sorry. All the best.

It’s really nice stuff all the best

It was a great box to open. All the best

Definitely is pal. All the best

Thanks for the comment it is awesome Your right.

Hahaha I left that it in. People need a little comedy these days. All the best

Thanks for the comment many more adventures to come. All the best

I want one! But as i would never leave my back yard it would be a rather expensive place to NAP!

@@private15 hahaa your right that would be some luxury snoozing. All the best

Hahaha I have one of me and one for my girl so no need to go pulling lol even have a third for a guest if someone joins. All the best

Hahaha the river was receding after a flood and actually dropped six inches during this camp, we are very aware of the power of the river and always keep close eye on any rain that is forecast. All the best

There will be a lot of hammock camping coming up. And a comparison video between this and my two older versions. All the best

Your right i love it. All the best

Awesome I hope tomorrow is a good day for you. When you get it set up and first get into it you will breath a big sigh of relief as the world drifts away and you become one with the Amok hahaha. It’s that good

Thank you. All the best

Awesome thanks for your comment. I think the UL looks amazing in the red colour too, I bet you won’t be waiting long. All the best

Happy Easter to you too and all the best

John built it the other week it’s nice and warm by the fire. All the best

I agree it looks great I would love a 5.0 regular myself as I’m a rough lad hahaha. All the best

Yes we have been camping together for about seven years and we have some great times. The tarp is great it’s super lightweight 15D silicone nylon packs down very small. And the hammock is the best so far. Check out Amokequipment online and build a kit. All the best

It will make a really good summer one with the white pad inside it a good autumn/spring hammock with the blue pad and a good winter hammock with the red pad. Ahhh to have the options

And thank you for the comment. All the best to you

They make amazing camping equipment. This is the ultralight version of the new updated Draumr 5.0 and I can safely say they are both really good hammocks. All the best

It is a better match but the red colour I like a lot, so many changes and new features and the upgrade from last year are impressive. All the best to you

Hi Randy thanks for the comment. It’s no problem Glad you managed to figure it out. It no issue to ask for my email and sorry I’ve not got round to replying so far. Fat wood is great thank you for it I will make sure to tell you when I’m running low. Yes all the new Amok stuff was sent to me for free to take a look at for them, they are a great bunch. All the best

A very good preview Tim

I’m glad I remembered to film the big net it has just as many updates as the whole hammock they really hit the nail on the head with this design. Yes I have the elite 5 sleeping bag but I don’t really like it, I use it as a top quilt without zipping it up and I completely agree a centre zip bag would work great I used to have one when I used the old Draumr 3.0. All the best

Thank you

Check out a video by shug on that subject. Short answer is yes if you can rig some poles up. All the best

I wouldn’t say there is a major difference, just a little more airflow in the UL. If I was going out in -12 I would bring my standard version remember now that the UL and standard have the same features. I would get one of the 5.0 Draumr hammocks and the winterlight sleep pad. All the best

No I don’t see it being more of an issue than with any other hammock side wind can make you cold no matter what you sleep in just pitch the tarp accordingly. All the best

Hahaha didn’t think of that yes definitely a plus there. All the best

They sure do and there quite generous. The limit for the ultralight is 120kg compared to the 180kg limit for the regular version, if your even bigger they make an XL version for people over 6feet tall but has the same 180kg limit. All the best

@@TimRobson30 Thank you Tim for your reply, Being a ex-biker, and 6'4" tall kinda need the BIGGER size :).

They really did a good job on this one every little detail has been thought of. All the best

Hi thanks for the comment. Yes ultralight things will always be more money.

Standard length normal fabric is $219.95 and standard length ultralight is $349.95 hope that helps

I’m sorry I’m not sure what regular version you mean, there have been 5 versions. The new ultralight and the bee regular draumr both have the same changes from the 4.0 model but one is lighter. If you have the 3.0 or 4.0 model there will be different features on the new one. If you have a regular hammock and that’s what your talking about then yes of course it is better. Lots better

@@TimRobson30Sorry for the confusion. I just mean UL vs 5.0

@@John_P290 cool no problem. I don’t see there being a huge difference in comfort between the 5.0 and the UL they both recline exactly the same level and are as long and wide as each other, the straps for the UL are lighter weight and narrower so there is a little more give compaired to my 4.0 camo. There may be a tiny bit of extra comfort to be found in the UL sleeping pad because of the fabric it is made from but I always use my red one as it’s warmest. I hope this info helps. All the best

Thank you very much. Sleeping in all positions is very comfortable, I get no shoulder squeeze no pain in my knees and no issue from laying flat on my stomach even. All the best

@@TimRobson30 great, thank for the feedback.... I think I'll pop in an order for one...

@@brownies-midlifeadventure5333 only thing to consider in my opinion is which sleeping mat to buy, they sell three different ones, fjol this is the basic one with lowest temp rating, fjol UL this is the ultra light one with middle temp rating, fjol winterlight is the red one that will keep you warm down to -12c

@@TimRobson30 thanks mate, was thing of going with the winterlight, don't really need it for the temp up here in the tropics where I am, but great for some southern trips in winter...

@@brownies-midlifeadventure5333 cool, well I hope you enjoy your purchase if you make the decision to go for it if your in the tropics most of the time I would just go with the full UL set up you can always add a foam mat if you want to travel to colder climates the ultralight fabric will be so sweet for you as it breaths just a little more and the UL sleeping mat is still a plenty of warmth for you but will take up less space in your pack

Yeah I saw Andy’s video it looks great for deep winter but maybe a bit to much to carry around for a long journey. All the best

Thank you for your comment. First off It is very flat I would say maybe 95% flat with an angle of around 170 degrees, I naturally turn around in my sleep spending some time on my sides and stomach with no issues and always have a way more restful sleep than in a gathered end hammock. All I will say is Amok equipment have an amazing return policy, if you buy it and don’t like it you have plenty of time to send it back for a refund.

I just got mine sent over from the office and had confirmation straight away, my parcel only took 24 hours to arrive. I know that they have had warehouse issues they posted about it on there Instagram page. Send them an email they are friendly and will let you know what’s happening. All the best

@@TimRobson30 thanks! They do seem like a friendly bunch.

@@davidachee1927 they are very nice people. I hope your issue gets resolved it must be hard to still be waiting, Trust me it will be worth the time. All the best

This product can only be purchased from Amok equipment’s website. All payment and shipping info is available on there website. All the best

I hurt my neck lifting weights and I’ve been in a lot of pain. Getting better now so will be back out soon

Sorry I didn’t spot this comment. This is the regular length version, I measure 5’11” and the regular fits me fine. All the best

It’s more comfortable than the bed I sleep in at home. The full set up including the poles and a coffee cup coats $679

We are both fine, I’m still uploading as often as I can and John is working all hours so is hard to track down. All the best

I’m sorry it’s been a long time. I have trouble getting chance to camp every week due to things in my private life, John just started a new job too so he is more busy than normal. All the best

@@TimRobson30 good to hear that it's nothing bad that has happened to you two! Hoping to see you get out soon again! 🙏

@@Simon-cb4bq no it’s nothing bad I just can’t afford to go out every week with food and fuel for the bike and so on

That’s awesome, you won’t be waiting for long and you won’t be disappointed. All the best to you

@@TimRobson30 I've heard they are the most comfortable hammock like sleeping in bed

@@BoltonMaverickoutdoors my Amok Draumr is more comfortable than my bed, I have the 3.0 the 4.0 and now the ultralight and I love them all.

No not really

@@TimRobson30 Good! You want the top open, but the sides protected from wind. In the videos it almost looks like the mosquito net. Thanks! I have an XL and Tensa 4 for motorcycle camping but an Ultra Lite might be nice for backpacking.

@@leelove5089 as far as I can tell the bug net and body are made from the same material. It’s definitely a lot lighter in the pack

Hello hope your well

My mum made them for me

Hahaha yeah your not wrong pal. All the best

I’m very sorry I have not been out camping I have hurt me neck and I don’t want to risk sleeping out and making it worse, it’s on the mend so I will be out asap. John has started a new head chef job and is working all hours given to him but I’m sure he will be making plans to get back to camping. All the best

@@TimRobson30 Thank you Tim i hope your neck gets better buddy, and i look forward to seeing you both on here soon. I love to watch your videos Tim and little Tyson too. Thank you.

@Gene Guy thank you so much I should be back out soon. I will pass on your best wishes to John he is now a slave to the kitchen again hahaha

All the best

Hi James hope your well. I was never in the camp of thinking the Draumr was heavy to begin with, the larger tarp is available in the same fabric as the last one not just the ultralight 15D but I hear you I wish the tarp was this big all along. All the best to you

All in the set is £499

Not bad if your out all the time Tim, it's on my list of things to get I do a lot of fishing up, the isle of skye be ideal for up there as some of the Mark's are a good hour walk and least you could spend the night there if the fishing is good keep the vids coming fellas kind reguards Martin

@@martinnash8085 be perfect for keeping the migies off you at night pal just watch you hooks in the sleeping mat. All the best

Yeh so that it points the correct direction

Hahaha that’s why we camp on a floodplain the river brings up new wood every year. And we didn’t have the chainsaw this trip. All the best

All the best dude
