    I have a switchback with the rw mod from 2qzq. I believe it is a 1.9. Bought it from another member here. Definitely a 2 layer. Don't know of you'd be interested. I can find out if it is a 1.9 if your interested.

    I am interested if it is a 1.9 double layer. I looked up RW mod and it is really simple and handy. PM me with price and answer.
    Thanks...

    If you do get a switchback I would recommend the rw mod. it is nice to be able to completely take the bug net down to the end of the hammock and have an open air lay.

    Indeed. When I looked at their website I saw how easy it would be to do.

    I have a 1.1 dbl that I could part with. Not sure of your weight range. I'm about 220 at the moment and it's fine for me.
