alright so i just spent another weekend in the woods in my 11ft bb... and yet again though initally comfy i end up tossing and turning onto my different sides to compensate for shoulder strain. I also have to keep a leg bent to avoid some hyperextension.
at this point i have my 11ft bb. 10 ft double parachute, 9 foot wallworld and an 11foot dutch.
I dont have alot of time (no overnights) in the dutch but I've gotten the shoulder strain on each of the hammocks.
I have had alot of time with the bb. and spent countless hours tweaking its setup to try and achieve comfort. but always end up with the shoulder strain on my left shoulder with my feet left... Ive tried hang height adjustments, ridgeline lengths and sag tweaks. at first i thought it was my pad causing the issue so i got an underquilt... but no change, same issue.
I am thinking of trading/selling the Custom BB. in favor of trying a bridge. I dislike the fact that a bridge is heavier, but at this point ill try anything before going back to ground.
thoughts?
