    You are also an excellent candidate for some protein shakes.

    Speaking of the Racer, I've tried numerous times to get Hennessy to make a batch in the same fabric they make the Hyperlight from without success. I wanted one for my daughter, in fact, they sold me a hyperlight pretty cheap so I would stop asking. IIRC, the Racer is a bit more narrow than the Hyperlight, at your height you might be more comfortable in the latter because it will likely be easier to get on a diagonal in the wider hammock.

    You likely will have to call them, that isn't a stock item, they only make batches occasionally.

    Hello, Christopher - we no longer make the Adventure Racer. It was designed
    for adventure races like
    the EcoChallenge but people wanted to use it for Trail Hiking for which it
    was not suitable. We now
    make the hyperlight which weighs more but is much more comfortable and
    durable.

    Thanks

    Ann
