Doublenest - Ridgeline or Re-Sling?

[oldgringo]

I guess I have some things to learn... I am a noob and tinkering with the hang of my DoubleNest. After a lot of frustration and trial and error by means I won't bore you with, I tried a ridgeline of 114" and things seemed better. After reading this thread I can shorten even further... WOW!!

I am going to get this right!! I am going to get this right!!

Great forum!!

James, start by measuring your hammock...the advertised length is meaningless. Stretch it out straight using the suspension, and measure the distance between the suspension points. This is your OAL. The ridgeline length will be a percentage of the OAL...83% is often quoted, and will get you in the ballpark. 114" sounds much too long for an ENO DN.
