    Eno SN not wide enough?

    Last night I tried to sleep in my hammock but my feet kept on sliding out. Is there any way to fix this? or do I need a new hammock?

    The SN is a narrow-ish hammock if I recall.
    Carry forth....

    Yeah IMHO it's not wide enough for an adult as far as overnighters go. My 11 year old daughter does fine in one but a full grown man or any woman not considered petite would have issues. I think anyways. FWIW.

    With my eno the width is not the problem.... It's the length. I have a diy that's much narrower but a few feet longer and wow! The eno has taken a back seat ever since.

    +1 on the single not being wide enough. I have trouble stretching out in it, and getting a good diagonal lay. I wish I had gotten the doublenest instead. Its great for naps though. Ive got mine hanging in the living room
    with two m's, like "hammock."

    I can't lay in the SN nor can my 14 year old son. It's just not wide enough to be our go to camp hammock.

    im 5' 10" and only a buck 30 and i couldn't deal with it. I think I am going to go the DIY route. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I would rather be comfy that weight concerned, so whatever DIY hammock you think will fit my needs would be nice to see.

    my feet fell out of the wb traveler- back when i strove for a ridgeline length of 83%/hammock body and some good sag.

    the eno sn is as wide as the TTTG SBLH - and as long.

    i like a more in-line lay these days, and find a narrower hammock more comfortable.

    it all depends on where you find comfort - but the knotty stretch may help keep your feet in.
