Long Drops and Hard Knocks is a book celebrating fifty years of a remarkable annual event – a school camp. But it’s no ordinary camp and this story is packed with adventure, laughter, drama, danger and intrigue. Queenstown author Sue Fea takes us beyond the world-renown, high country Skippers Canyon, near Queenstown, and into the vast, beautiful and remote Branches Station. There, decade after decade, one generation following another, hundreds of youngsters from Wakatipu High School have discovered themselves through their camp, an unmatched outdoor experience. Without home comforts, with few facilities, fending for themselves, facing physical and mental challenges, they have to endure whatever weather and dramas come their way during a relentless programme designed to help them cross the threshold into adulthood. Long Drops and Hard Knocks tells scores of stories of challenge, overcoming fear, self-discovery and achievement during a relentless two-week camp under canvas. They have little contact with the outside world, face situations they have never confronted before and then re-emerge to a world left behind, lifelong friendships created, new skills revealed, having achieved things they had only imagined and stronger and better for what they have experienced. Long Drops and Hard Knocks is more than history. It’s a powerful reminder of the strength of the human spirit and what it can achieve in the right environment and with the right direction.

Great Cargo Net for the Price! 👍
This item is nice and appears to be high quality compared to others that cost way more. So for $15 you cannot ask for better. Now how it holds up over time is another story. My last one was so dry rotted and it stayed stored inside the pocket of my door for several years. Regardless for only$15 if you get 1 year out of it you got your money's worth. Just purchase a new one. As far as seams, stitching and elasticity, it's very good. Carabiners are black coated what looks and feels like aluminum but cannot confirm. The quality as they open and close feel solid. Again time will tell. I would definitely recommend this net. The only negative is the bag it comes in is garbage and cheaply made. It's like dollar general plastic toiletries bag.

Very handy in many situations.
This is a very useful gadget. It is very stretchy, adjustable with extra straps, easy to store in it‘s own bag and a pretty good weight. We used it to transport a mattress, hay bales, a large stack of cardboard boxes and a desk. The hooks are strong but easy to open, it did not tangle for us at all.

Cheap and tough
I got this for a trailer not a truck and it works perfectly for dump runs instead of using a tarp and bungies. Comes in a little bag I'll never use again and had some accessories i don't understand, but if you want a springy net for something that's cheap enough not to care about breaking this is your product
