Then a Huge Rat attacked us)))))))

Wow sorry to bring up such a scary event for you bro!! Glad it ended only as a scare and not as you were thinking!!

Shugster,

In the video, it appeared that you were laying for a while on your stomach. I have been unsuccessfully seeking this nirvana sleeping position ever since I began my adventure into hammock-land, but have been unsuccessful so far. Please tell me that you did!!!

I did lay there on my stomach awhile and it was pretty comfortable. I am totally not a stomach sleeper but those that do would find this hammock comfortable.

Shug, how does your UQ's fit with such a diaginal lay? Just curious.

I am really not that much more diagonal than my other hammocks....
Keep in mind I am a 2/3 UQ user....this is my Winter Yeti. Fits like a charm.

Are all of the WL hammocks No Net? I think they are all 11 ft hammocks, right? What would be the advantage of a Snipe vs one of the others? I guess weight, due to no pad pocket. Any thing else? Would comfort be about the same in all of them?
