Currently contemplating purchasing a Blackbird as a second hammock and would appreciate some thoughts from Brandon, Clark Hammock users who have slept in the BB (Cavediver2, Fin, Raw), & any others with a word to say.
I currently have the Clark NX 200. Can't say I'm totaly comfortable and would prefer a flater lay as I hear the BB would provide as in this post.

I use my hammock mostly for touring with my bicycle. Weight is not as important as size (compactibility). Does anybody have photos of the hammock in a compressed state (maybe next to a pop can)? What is the size of each hammock in there compressed state?
I'll be keeping the Clark hammock for winter (love the weathershield) & friends. So, I would like my second hammock to be a smaller pack size then the Clark set up but of course very comfortable at the same time.
So which BlackBird do I get??? Howfar can I push the envelope & still be very very comfortable. Or do I just be safe and buy Double 1.7.
