    Flipping a WB over to make it a seat.

    It is recommended to flip the Henessey Hammocks over to use as a seat. Is this way recommended using a WB also?

    Why not just tie the bugnet back and sit in it? That is what most do.
    Flipping....the hammock ridgeline may get in the way of a good sit.

    Actually the HH front is folded to the center and then you sit on it. You do not turn it upside down. Folding it this way you do not have the edge, which gets tight, cut into your legs. You can do the same with the WB xlc as well. But like Shug said a lot just sit in it.

    That info is specific for non zip entry hammocks. HH was bottom entry.

    WB is best used by opening the zip completely. Flipping it would potentially stress the netting.
