    Best UQ suited for RidgeRunner

    I just picked up a Ridge runner bridge hammock to add to my collection. I have a couple HG under quilts set up for my gathered ends and was curious what you guys used for the bridge. If I were to dedicate one quilt, are there any better brands or size better suited for the bridge?

    The best quilt in my opinion for the Ridgerunner is the quilt Warbonnet makes specifically for the Ridgerunner. The Lynx.

    I chose the HG Incubator as it can be used for a gathered end or bridge. It works very well on my WBRR.
    I also recently picked up an UGQ Ambush quilt which also works very well but is purpose built for bridge hammocks.
    I have yet to try a Lynx... I'm certain they are great too. The one thing I wish is that WB offered more fabric/customization options.

    I thought about using my HG but didn't want to have to fuss with the suspension going back and forth between the bridge and gathered end.

    Lynx. It's made specifically for the RR.

    The ambush or lynx. They are both designed for the rr and fit like a glove.

    Lynx. Have never experienced CBS. Not even a worry about adjusting. Four (4) simple mini carabiner attachments. Done. No fiddling factor.
    Works as advertised.
    I know it's not the lightest gear, and it's a lot of stuff, but I use a canoe, so it's a lot like car camping, but without the other cars.

    Same here. If you are into simple hanging then this is the hammock and quilt for you.

    I haven't got a quilt specifically for my RR but I have modified the suspension of my existing quilts to string it up the bars. I thought about getting some mini carabiners and larkshead them on the corners so they clip on like the ambush and lynx.
    I have a UQ full length one I rigged with good success and a Jarbridge I have. Kept me warm. Course that is here in FL and we haven't had any real cold spells in a while. I would experiment like I did and see if that works for you as well. May save you some bucks.
