    The RR and full lenght Lynx

    I purchased a RR for Mrs Law Dawg (ret) and just got her 0 degree full length Lynx UQ (thanks Boulderman). Set them up in the backyard lab for my bride to try out and they got great reviews! I've got to say that the RR and full length Lynx combo is an elegant system. Simple to set up and seemingly a simple design...much like Eric Clapton makes playing the guitar look simple.

    The Lynx fits like a glove and the combination makes for a very comfortable (so she says) sleeping system. Even if the 0 degree Lynx was way overkill in our 104 degree backyard. The calf ridge is gone and the Mrs really appreciates the view from this hammock. Added to those complaints when she tried her BB 1.1 dbl was the UQ shifted and made her cold. The Lynx will always be positioned perfectly and at 0 degree rating should have her warm indeed.

    Got to say well done Brandon...a very well thought out hammock system.

    Glad she likes it! The RR & Lynx really is a great combo.
    Potential is nothing without hard work.

    The RR and full lenght Lynx

    ===> I just ordered the same thing, with a Spindrift Sock. Can't wait to compare it to my Blackbirds, and my Hennessey!

    Well done, got a feeling you are going to like this set up. I'd like the RR etc we got if my hog body was not too hefty for it that is.

    I got the 3/4 lynx with mine, because I am only 3/4 long myself

    Check out Paul's AHE custom made Jarbidge for the RR. and also,,Te-Wa makes a almost perfect fit Breeze summer 3/4 down quilt that fits nicely as both work like a charm for summer. Enjoy the RR.

    The RR and full lenght Lynx

    ===> Thanks guys! I know I will love it! I already have UQs from AHE and Hammock Gear I can also adapt if necessary. I just figured the Lynx was made expressly for the RR, so I know that will fit!

    I also have the RR and Lynx combo. The reason I like the Lynx is because there is no fiddle factor, you just put it on and its a perfect fit.

    Yep My husband set me up with a RR (no lynx yet... nudge, silverpalm2x) and he was duly rewarded when I agreed he needed his own WB. Only he went for the BB. Pays to take care of your wives... take note!
