<p>Just yourself and two sturdy trees or posts! Every Nakie hammock comes with no-knot straps and carabiners for an easy, no-fuss setup. You don’t need any extra equipment or have to tie a single knot. Our current record is 27 seconds!</p> <p>Here’s how to set up your hammock in a few simple steps:</p> <ol> <li><strong>Find two anchor points:</strong> Look for two healthy, sturdy trees or securely installed, load-bearing posts about 3–4.5 metres apart. Make sure they can safely support your weight, and check for dead branches overhead or hazards underneath.</li> <li><strong>Loop the straps:</strong> Wrap each strap around a tree or post at roughly head height. Feed the end through its own loop and pull snug to secure it.</li> <li><strong>Attach the hammock:</strong> Clip each end of your hammock to the straps using the included carabiners, making sure both gates are fully closed. The straps have multiple loops so you can adjust the height. Start with a loop near the middle.</li> <li><strong>Test and adjust:</strong> Leave a gentle curve in the hammock rather than pulling it tight. Slowly lower yourself in to check the height and comfort, keeping your seated position low to the ground. Adjust the strap loops or strap height as needed.</li> </ol>
