    For some reason, I’m having trouble envisioning this mod. Can you provide more details or a picture?

    Just take a mini Biner and do a few wraps of the ridgeline around it. Pretty sure I saw Professor Shug do it, and it just happened to work for me. Not sure how much shorter it made the RL, but it’s results are undeniable for me.

    I saw some pictures in the thread “Shortening a ridgeline” from a couple of years ago. Now it makes sense.

    For me the key to a good (no - great!) sleep in my WBBB XLC is to make sure that my head is well towards the end of the hammock.
    I find that putting my shoulders level with the logo patch is perfect.
    While I generally do put the foot end higher than the head end, I find it's not so important.

    I also find that my worst sleep in my XLC is still better than any night spent on the ground!
