6/10 online ordered and I'm on my second go around lounging in my new BB today. Pretty good turn around I'd say!

I'm getting back into backpacking after a decade of absence due to the ground and my arthritis not being a good match. Have a WBBBXLC dbl1.1 and superfly on order as of last week and really looking forward to my first hang. Thanks to everyone for the great message board and detailed sharing of your experiences as I anticipate that my first hammock is going to be perfect!

I can't wait to get it hung and try it out, unfortunately I don't know when that will happen since I don't have any trees at home, and now I am realizing this is going to be worse than waiting for it to arrive. Any tips or pointers from you more experienced hangers are welcome and appreciated, I have no experience with one of these and bought it solely on its reputation and the fact that it had the features that I was looking for, and wanted to buy from from one of the cottage vendors.

Well I spent my first night in my new WBBB over the weekend, and it was pretty sweet, although I still failed to sleep all the way through the night, I don't know what it is but I have yet to sleep a full night in a hammock without waking up at least 2-3 times, I did not experience any calf ridge pressure, but I did wake up at one point and the bottom of my foot was cramping up though, not sure what that was all about , but it was by gar my best night sleep in a hammock so far.

I had the same problem. I was SO excited to get my BB. When I finally got it I couldn't sleep very well

I got a RR off here though and what a difference. (Thanks hanglife, sorry it just didn't work as well as I thought it would).

Got a message back from Brandon yesterday. They got my order mixed up, and only sent one of my tarps. They'll be sending out the second today (hopefully it gets here in time for my 7/4 backpacking trip). He mentioned that he's throwing in a spool of dyneema, probably as a peace offering.

The Edge we already got (arrived Saturday) is unbelievable. I already have a Kelty Noah's Tarp. I cannot believe how much lighter the Edge is... It's mind blowing.

Then leave for the woods never to return and live off your skills and current gear (remember to leave that smart phone behind).

I am so sorry that you have been affected by this disease hopefully your family will still be able to live a normal life.

**Note please do not cancel your credit cards as I need then for my own GAS.
***Lesspayne is not a medical doctor but will take your money to purchase gear for himself

Sounds like Brandon is getting caught up and shipping times are back to normal.

**Seamroy** · 06-26-2013, 08:03
