I was experimenting with my new XLC setup in the backyard this last weekend and had a few questions. I have the adjustable webbing. My kids ran off with my carabiners and I could only find one. I took off one strap and threaded it through the loop and then back to the buckles and it worked but was slow and I dropped the hammock on the ground. Seems like you really need carabiners for the adjustable webbing, right? I thought about ordering some Dutch clips but I'm afraid I will lose them if they are not attached. Do they work with the adjustable webbing without falling off. I assume the Dutch biners are too small to clip to the webbing, right? I have (or my kids have) some Nano biners that I like but is there something that fits the webbing better?
Secondly, I was more comfortable when I took the bug net off. I was feeling a little closterphobic so maybe I was just more relaxed. Does the net affect your lay? I hate bugs but maybe the zippered net is not for me.
Third even with about a 30 degree angle on the straps, the ridge line was tighter than what was in the Warbonnet BB setup video. I'm about 220 and probably have 40 pounds on Brandon so maybe that is it.
Thanks.
