I have hammock posts in my yard that are about 9 1/2 feet apart, would this hammock fit nicely in this space? hang too low? not long enough?

I think that's a big space but you can always add some rope to the extremes like I did in my 10 ft balcony and management it. I love mine.

The hammock is 160" from the edge of one hanging ring to the edge of the other ring, so roughly 13 1/3 ft w/out figuring in the "S" hooks used in each hanging ring. You could mount the hammock high enough to keep it from touching the ground, but I wouldn't think it to be very comfortable w/ so much sag.

If you lay out your hammock and measure it out, it should be right around nine feet long from hook to hook. the hammock stand hook points are about the same distance, so it should fit. when you attach it the first time, it will ride a little high. don't worry. once you get in it a few times it will stretch.

The length of the stand from hook to hook is 9' 5". It may fit a little tight, but I don't know how much "stretch" you would have in your hammock.

I do not use a stand for my hammock... I love it so much I built it a covered deck! I hangs between two 6x6 supporting posts on opposite sides of the deck. They are 12 foot apart. (I bought a set of "hammock tree straps" from Amazon to hang it from the posts.) The cotton rope that comprises the hammock does stretch, though, so for the 12 foot distance to work, it has to hang pretty high - about 6 foot with the hammock straps - to keep the center of the hammock high enough off the ground that it is easy to get in and out of. However you hang it, though, GET THIS HAMMOCK!!! You will never be sorry! I do not use a stand for my hammock... I love it so much I built it a covered deck!

Not really. If you go that small, you would actually be using part of the hammock to attach it, rather than the ends. It might work, but I do not think it would be very comfortable.

The stand is 12' from end to end, the hooks are about 3"to 4" down from the top. If your hammock does not have a lot of stretch this will work. If it does stretch, I suggest the 15' stand, the 15' comes with chains that can extend the hammock length bu attaching to your rings

I think 15 feet is too long. I just looked and it said it was for 12-13 feet. We have our hammock on our porch and it is less than 11 '. We had to make a knot in each end to get it up off the ground. If you stretched it 15 feet, it would be too high off the ground and would not be comfortable. This is a great hammock and we have used these for many years.

I have a space saver stand that is 9 ft apart. But I also have straps to use out camping or in the yard. The space for that totally depends on the tree thickness and your straps. I went camping in mid June and my straps would not go twice around a tree, so we had to put the strap about 10 ft up the tree with a kid on someone's shoulders and then stretch the other end to a tree about 12 ft away. Worked great, just looked weird :) I had to kick people out of *my* hammock to use it. It was a big hit and the kids enjoyed getting in it 2-3 at a time. No injuries all weekend.

My Trees sit apart at 12'4'', However I have about 14 inch in length straps from the hammock Mounting hardware to the tree itself, if you can close that distance I imagine you won't have a problem. In other words the hammock should fit just fine.

This hammock would be just about right for your dimensions. I'm similar to those numbers and I've never had a bad nights sleep in this hammock. I would say 5'11" and above would start having the problems.

The hammock is about 6 ft with about 2 ft webbing on each end, so I think this hammock would be to large for a 9 ft spacing.

Im unfamiliar with that hammock. From the pictures I looked at, I would have to say no. I think with a bit of creativity you could come up with something to work just like the skins, maybe something like the bags that lawn chairs come in. ?? Just a thought. Good luck.

I'm not really sure of what size hammock stand would be suitable for this huge hammock since we bought it for our summer camping out in a rustic setting and just put it up between trees.....the straps advertised with it worked really well to hold the weight of our lively bunch, and didn't seem to damage the bark on the trees selected for the task....it's going to be a fun addition to our camping tradition.

The Hammocls Rada are actually long and big. My hammock stand is too small and I had to tie knots in the ends to make it fit. Strong trees 9-10' apart will be perfect. I'm 6'3", 220lbs, and there is plenty of room for more!

I just went outside to check mine for you. It has six holes on each side to adjust for hammock size/height from the ground. The hammock it came with is approximately 11 feet including the ropes. I have mine set to the second hole on each side. The sixth and last hole is approximately sixteen inches lower than the second hole. I suppose that means you could have about 32 more inches of hammock and it would hang about as high as mine does (it's fairly close to the ground). Hope that helps!

Absolutely NOT, that's why I got a 10 ft hammock ( hard to find) for this stand I had. I actually had to put a short chain at each end, depends on how high you want it
