    Had a glorious night in mine last night. Made a pillow shaped like a neck pillow for flights and stuffed JRB down sleeves in it and was all good. Seems the bridge needs a pillow by design.
    Thankee again Grizz!!!!!!!

    Can anyone elaborate on the comfort differences vs a gathered? does it hug your lower back more?

    Very nice and professional looking, Grizz!

    I may have to try to make one some day....

    I'm a back sleeper. Notice on the JRB BMB a bit of shoulder squeeze (pad less). A wide roll type of pillow or wide (26" pad) reduced the squeeze to a non issue. Does the wider head spreader bar alone or the combination of design and bar in the GB eliminate the squeeze?

    For me .... yes. Grizz sent a pretty wide top spread bar. I have rigged so I can use my hiking pole at the head and the one he sent at the foot. Like a hike pole for a camera stand/weapon/tarp support/spear/limbo pole/fishing rod.
    Also, if I put my head really near the top I have no squeeze. To right!!!!!

    Nice looking hammock! I might have to pull out that bridge I started last year...
    (though I know it will look nowhere near as fine as a Grizz.)

    Professor, can you elaborate more on the end caps, or should we wait for the video (hint, hint)

    Started cutting out my first bridge, but may wait to see more about the Grizz Bridge.
