Stage poles, trees, jeeps–this is a short list of things you can hang your hammock from at a music festival, really the possibilities are endless. However if you want to catch the music on the big stage and just chill in the center of the field with your crew for a while, a LaunchPad may be the way to go. It serves as a great placeholder in a crowd and it zips up in a flash, just in time for you to stage bounce.
Two Sizes
You can choose between the LaunchPad single or double. Similar philosophy to the single and double hammocks, the double is same in length and about twice the width of a single. Whatever your preferences are really. In my opinion; two hippies could fit on a single and four on a double
Three Colors
Mix and match your LaunchPad to compliment the color of your hammock! There’s earthy Navy/Olive, bright Blue/Bright Green and classic Orange/Grey. Which one do you want?
Easy Setup and Packup

When I mentioned earlier that it zips up in a flash, I wasn’t kidding. No wrestling with an average blanket trying to condense it into your backpack–just a few folds, one zip, and throw it over your shoulder on your way to the next show. Look; I have proof, watch the video above.
Soft On Top, Tough on the Bottom
The LaunchPad is topped with a layer of cushy fleece to keep you comfortable, but armored with a coated ripstop nylon to keep you dry. We all know how unpredictable weather can be at a festival. (Have you ever been to Wakarusa ?) Don’t sit on the soggy grass the next morning to eat your breakfast burrito, sit on dry fleece! It’s totally okay if your LaunchPad’s underside gets more than a little muddy because it’s machine washable. Just un-clip the carrying strap and throw it in the washing machine on cold, then air dry. It will look like new for your next stop on the road.
