    Newbie from SoCal

    Well, just thought i would say hi, I have been on the forums for a couple of days. I got an ENO double one link kit for Christmas. I am really happy with how comfortable the hammock it self is, but I am not too thrilled about the way it all sets up, and the lack of adjust-ability in the slap straps. After many hours of reading on here and watching videos from Shrug and others and have decided to get a WBBB 1.7 DL. I am really tempted to go for the Hennesy because of the 2 for 1 special right now, but I think the WBBB will be the better option for me.

    Howdy from Texas! You can't go wrong with either choice.
    I have a WBBB 1.7 DL and love it. I recently picked up a HH Expedition from another forum member and it is very comfortable too! The Expedition is a bit narrow if you are accustom to the width of your ENO DN. Check out the wider options.
    The specials at Hennessy are tempting and well worth it. The Double Layer of the BB was a selling point for me, but not necessary if you do not plan to use it. Keep in mind you can resale either choice here on the forums.
    As far as your ENO goes, in my case, I ditched the slap straps and standard hardware, installed a ridgeline, whoopie slings, webbing for a great setup with loads of adjustability.

    Hey another California hanger, welcome Cris! I like my WBBB 1.7 dbl very much...like the Traveler 1.1 dbl even more though. Had I to do it all over again the WBBB 1.1 dbl is the way I would go (even at 250 lbs).
