    I've got both a full length DIY with the RSBTR kit and an AHE Jarbidge. Prices were similar and I love them both. I'm 5'9" and the Jarbidge gives me coverage from roughly shoulders to nearly my ankles. If you can pick one up, either from the forums For Sale section or directly from AHE, I'd say it's money well spent.
    Cheers.

    The Jarbridge is surprisingly lightweight. It is good quality. Like most synthetic, it will not compress as well as down, but is a good quilt. I have a 3-season and take it quite frequently into the low 40's. At 5'8", you might need a small piece of foot pad in the lower temps as the Jarbridge is only 3/4 length. I am short, so it is full-length for me. It also works very well on a bridge hammock.

    Snugpak makes an "underblanket" Its will made.

    I've have a Arrow Head Designs Ridge Creek 3/4 for using with a WBRR (sold) and Hammocktent 90* Gamma UL, Beta, and Alpha hammocks and have been pleased with the price, weight, cut, and construction.
