I think a double layer gives folks with a limited budget(like myself) more choices for bottom insulation. Pads, old sleeping bags, truck sun shields, etc. have been used with double layer setups pretty successfully with less fiddle factor as far as the pads moving around. I have designed a hybrid that uses the inner layer as the sole support for the hanger, but with a second totally detachable layer that allows for a big selection of insulation choices. http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=53014
This past weekend I was relaxing under the trees, and the second layer was too hot. I just detached the magnets on the sides and swung it under me to the foot side of the hammock, and it folded up into a long narrow piece of fabric that was out of the way. I felt that nice breeze Oldgringo referred to just fine!
