My WBBB dream hammock

[krshome]

I have and love my WBBB but really like the new XLC. If Brandon made a 10 foot version in a single layer 1.9 Multicam with a 1.1 black topcover and .7 oz Ultralight No-see-um It would be my dream hammock. It would be everything I would ever want in a hammock. New name though (BBC) but that already taken Someday maybe, someday

Seems there are some real requests for a 10ft BB/XLC? any reason why you feel a 10ft over your current 11 is better?

I'm 6'1 and have made many 11 foot hammock and I have found no real benefits of the extra length. I actually feel shorter is more comfortable. Also the 11 foot hammocks are pushin the length of my tarps for coverage. I made an 8 foot for my 5 year old and that is really comfy, go figure.

I know this is probably a dumb question but what does XLC stand for in the new hammock? How is it different from the normal BB?

Check out the videos on Warbonnets site. Should help clear up sone of your questions.

Wow, this is the first time I have heard anyone say that. I'm 6'-5" and the new XLC is by far, more comfortable than a regular Blackbird for me.

Just goes to show, different strokes for different folks
