My current hammock is supposed to be 84x54 lay area, actual width is around 50" and total hammock length is 9'. I use a sleeping pad for $$$ reasons. I find my biggest issue it that the pad and goes over the edge of the hammock, the edge makes its way toward the center of the hammock and next thing you know my feet are hanging off the hammock. I don't have this issue if I'm just taking a leisurely lay without any sleeping gear. I'm considering a 60+" wide hammock so the "extra" fabric contains all my sleep gear. I find I don't like my feet being right on the edge. After seeing your 68" hammock, I'm inclined to back off to 64-65"
