Well, I made it out last weekend to test both hammocks and have decided to keep the RidgeRunner and send the XLC back (unless anyone nearby wants to save the wait and shipping charges and buy it...
I may have been feeling the effects of pitching between trees that are only slightly over 14 feet apart and/or I may have rigged the suspension less optimally than the first time, but it was more...
Did another back yard overnighter in the RR to see how my 47"x20" Big Agnes Insulated Air Core pad would perform. Amazingly comfortable with little to no shifting as long as I put my weight on it...

Interesting! Are you saying that the perpendicular baffles help reduce the side/seam pressure by flexing the sides of the hammock outward slightly? Does the pad maintain a smooth curved top side at...
I've probably seen your posts on this before, but what ccf pads do you use in your RRs? I plan to test a couple ccf pads and an insulated air pad or two (like the neoair mentioned by Loki), as well...
I still have lots of time for evaluation, but I FINALLY received both hammocks yesterday, and after some considerable setup consternation, chose the RR for my first night trial.
After quickly...
