I hang my NX-250 so that there is just a little bit of sag in the storm cover/bug net covering between the two flexible pole arches (empty hammock). To me, that seems to give me the best lay. I also tend to like my feet just a couple of inches higher than my head. I am not fond of extra ridgelines hitting me in the head when getting in and out of the hammock, although they could be handy for hanging items from. I just find them to be more fiddle factor (which is not necessarily a BAD thing!) and love the ease with which the Clark sets up; no side tie-outs on the hammock to prevent a nice gentle sway or trip over. I love my Clark......and Clark Bars!
Have fun with your hang, just try it several times and you will be able to see the proper sag in the storm shield without even having to think about it.
I just went to the Clark web site and they have a new, professionally produced video featuring the NX-150 and 250. In this excellent video you can see exactly what I was talking about regarding the proper hand. Enjoy! http://www.junglehammock.com/models/nx250/index.php
