Hey all ..
im about to make my order with in the next two weeks .. for a wbbb .
im #180 about 5' 11" .. and am looking for space saving in my pack as well as lightness..
im looking at the wbbb 1.1 double layer . with the buckle suspension. it more weight but the ease of use imo might out weigh .. and the edge tarp ..
so providing my weight and height ..hows this sound?
also what are some other things that i might need to add to my order? biners?
guidelines?

one more quick question about the wbbb.. on the chart there a flatness number/rating .. how is this rated? what do the numbers mean .the higher the number the flatter the lay? just curious
any other ideas ?
thanks

Height and weight aren't an issue, you'll fit fine.
I haven't used the Edge tarp yet, but I can't imagine it wouldn't work over any of Brandon's creations.
The number is representative of the user's weight. The higher the weight, the more fabric you need to acheive max flatness. They are totally subjective and based off of what users have told Brandon, but an excellent guide.

like cannibal said you will have no problem with fitting in the bb. I am 6'1 and weigh around 350 and have plenty of room in mine. My brother in law is 6'5 and was suprised how much room was in it. congrats

so your saying according to my weight vrs. the chart weight .i should acheive a very flat lay? ive never tried the wbbb .but have read and read some more . and could not find one complaint. ive been hanging a HH for a while now and this bottom enrty was cool at first but now ,just a pain in the a@$.. im in the process of reveamping my alot of my gear .for a Co. hang this july with the family. for less weight and space in my pack ..so this means i have to spend wisely also ..
ive decided to wait on a uq as spring s very close,and use a pad for now. and opt for a wbbb ,a down bag .and new tarp..
thanks for the coments fellas and the schooling..

QUOTE," and could not find one complaint. "

Well i have a complaint about the WBBB and that is i didn't find it sooner. For your height and weight you'll be more than fine, the WBBB is an excellent product and Brandon is one of the gang here and gives excellent service.
