HG Phoenix on new WB XLC / Problem

[saharrison67]

Did my first outing with the new XLC this weekend. Used my HG Phoenix. On the XLC right side there is a ribbon hanging on the outside which I assume is for anchoring an under quilt somehow. It lines up perfectly with the plastic loop on my Phoenix so I tied it off. On the left side on the XLC there in no ribbon. When sleeping I found the UQ slipping out from under me and sliding to the right. Had to keep reaching out and pulling it back over thru the night. Once it slid completely under and was hanging beside me. Anybody have this issue yet ?

I think that ribbon is for a Hennessy hammock. I'll offer this video that may give some UQ insight.
Carry forth.

I just realized, the ribbon on the XLC is used to tie the bug netting out of the way when not used.

I believe the ribbon is for tying the bug net back. I had to extend the shock cord a little on my Phoenix when using it on my xlc and it stayed put better.

How did you do it ?

Ooops...I thought you meant a ribbon on the UQ.

First I'd disconnect the right side, that extra tension is potentially causing the quilt to favor that side. If adjustments don't work out, in a pinch I've run shock cord right over the ridgeline to the sides of the quilt to hold it in place. This was temporary though until I got it tweaked properly.

Just try using the underquilt without fixing it to the hammock. If my HG Incubator is set up with the right tension, it stays with me. This means, if I move, it moves with me. Attaching it to the hammock would only mean that it is less flexible and is prone to slipping if I move where it cannot follow.
