I haven't noticed a narrowing effect .. the snipe is 60'' wide and with the shock cord it still has the ability to extend to the maximum width .. the shock cord also allows one in ingress/egress without straining the hammock .. it does effectively take the floppy sides away from the gathered end style .. with the Snipe being 11 foot long this might be the reason .. on a shorter hammock the narrowing effect just might be incurred .. not having any experience in anything other then the Snipe with this design feature, I can only attest to the lack of narrowing effect to this hammock ..you wanna' feel narrow .. I'll loan you my Clark UL ..
