    So, major changes to get to UL, shedding 7oz are
    Shallower, and
    single layer, instead of double?

    Yes according to the site but they also listed that they removed the four under quilt attachment loops and the under quilt now attaches directly to the secondary (spreader bar) rings.

    That is how I am reading it. You give up the wonderful pad pocket- which won't matter to most UQ users. The quilt attaches in some new fashion, to the spreader bar rings rather than to loops on the hammock.

    I'm wondering:
    1:are the weight limits the same and

    2: does the 4" less deep change the perceived "lay"? I'm sure just as flat, but maybe feels different in the shoulders, or still pretty much identical to the original?

    3:And why is the suspension weight listed separately? Removable?
