Kammok Roo Single UL Ultralight Hammock
Kammok Roo Single UL Ultralight Hammock
The Roo Single UL is a one-person camping hammock that packs down to 5.9 oz (167 g) and stows in its own water-resistant stuff sack about the size of a lime. It lays out to 100 x 50 in and is rated to 300 lb. The shaved weight comes from Levitas 20D ripstop nylon with a DWR finish, so it sheds light moisture and breathes instead of trapping heat.
Suspension is a toggle-and-loop system: an aluminum toggle on a Dyneema cord buttons through its own loop, dropping the carabiner weight off the standard Roo. The toggle mates with standard daisy-chain straps and whoopie slings, so you can run whatever suspension you already pack. Tree straps are sold separately. Perimeter loops let you clip an underquilt for cooler nights without adding a pad.
This is an ultralight build, so treat it like one. The 20D fabric is tuned to save grams, not to be a daily backyard hammock dragged over rough bark. Stay inside the 300 lb rating, keep it off abrasive edges, and it earns its spot in a thru-hike kit where every ounce counts.

Use cases
Built for ultralight backpacking and thru-hiking, where packed weight is the deciding spec and you carry your own straps. It is also small enough to ride along as a near-weightless trail lounge for breaks, summit naps, or a spare seat at camp.

Does it come with straps?
No. The UL ships with the hammock, the toggle suspension, and a water-resistant stuff sack. You add tree straps separately. The toggle-and-loop system mates with standard daisy-chain straps and whoopie slings, so most straps you already own will work.
How is the UL different from the standard Roo Single?
The UL drops to a 5.9 oz packed weight by using Levitas 20D ripstop and an aluminum-toggle-and-Dyneema suspension instead of carabiners. The standard Roo Single uses heavier fabric and carabiner attachment and weighs more. Pick the UL when packed weight is the priority.
Will the thin 20D fabric hold up?
It is an ultralight 20D ripstop, tuned to shave grams rather than serve as a daily backyard hammock. Stay inside the 300 lb rating and keep it off rough bark and sharp edges, and it holds up for trail use. If you want something to leave hanging on the porch all season, the heavier standard Roo is the better call.
Can I add an underquilt for cold weather?
Yes. The perimeter loops are there to clip on an underquilt for shoulder-season and cold-weather warmth, which keeps your back insulated without stuffing a pad inside the hammock.
Is it waterproof?
The DWR finish is water-repellent, not waterproof. It sheds light moisture and dries fast, but it is not a rain shelter. Pair it with a tarp for wet weather, and pack it dry to protect the coating.
