    sagging on parachute style hammocks

    I have 2 trek light doubles in my house. One is about 1 years old, one's about a month old or so.

    I sleep in a hammock every night - there's no bed in my room

    I've noticed that the hammock sags to one side. My body weight is pushed either to the left or right and the "walls" or "ridges" on side the of the hammock become very stiff - impossible to sleep 'up on'.

    It's affecting my sleep. I don't like having to sleep on a specific portion of the hammock and i just dont like the walls it creates. I've washed the hammock, which would normally 'reset' the hammock but it seems to have stopped doing that and i instantly sag back down to the same part of the nylon as pre-wash. Is there anything to do to remedy this problem? I can take pics/vids if i'm not explaning myself clearly.

    I miss the 'openness' that the mayan hammocks provided. Unfortuantly, all the mayans we've had in my house have ripped/broken. Is there any way to get the same affect in a nylon?

    I have money for another hammock and am thinking about picking up another if it'll be better sleep at night - any sugestions? I know WB has a huge following here. (it was a toss up between a TL and a WB when i first got my hammock)

    I posted a thread real long ago about having a pirate themed room. Here's pictures.

    (old pics, not pics of the problem)




    Thanks guys
