I use this with my 11 ft\ WBBB-XLC and it works fine.

To get a 30 degree hang, I have to rig the ridgeline very tight when setting up since the stand flexes, but when I lie in it, the ridge line loosens to normal since the ends flex toward each other. I like that the stand breaks down for storage and reassembles quickly and easily with no tools required other than the included ones. The included wrenches are stamped metal. I keep them attached to a brace on the frame with a soft prussic so I don't lose them. If you have a large enough car trunk or a pickup, etc., you can leave the major sections assembled for transport. The lower bar joins the side struts that holds the detachable upright end pieces. It uses a bolt with a hand knob to secure the tubular pieces together. I normally do not rig up my superfly, but it is possible. It is my go-to setup for yard testing or just lounging on a nice day. It is too heavy for backpacking use though it would be great to take along for a basecamp setup where there were no trees or for car campers.
