    I think I already know the deciding factor. If he does not suffer the dreaded calf pressure more in the WBBB than the Explorer, my bet is he keeps the WBBB. ( I guess the HH is also a zippered model? )

    If he does- even if the pressure exists but is significantly less in the HH - then I bet on keeping the HH.

    I still really like my HH Expl ULs, particularly if I am in a Super Shelter mood. But, I admit except for that one factor, I over all prefer my 1.7 double WBBB. And I might prefer a 1.1 or Traveler even more for all I know.

    Both great hammocks - like the suspension, shelf and double layer in the WBBB. Have fun with your 'researching'!

    I also have a HH Deep Jungle (their double layered zip). I love the fabric, but heavier than my WBBB 1.1 DL.

    I prefer my 1.1 DL over my 1.7 SL BB, but I find the SL 1.7 Traveler plenty comfy. For all I know I'd love a DL...but I haven't been in one!

    Neither Tom nor Brandon make a bad product.
