    I have the week off after Christmas and can probably crank out a little video on how to use the suspension if you guys still want one. Let me know and I'd be happy to help.

    Cool. I'll get that done this weekend and try and make it as detailed as possible to help out as much as I can. If anyone has specific questions then please ask away so I can make sure I cover everything.

    The biggest issue I see is most over tighten the end shockcords that are designed to help seal the ends.

    Fronkey,

    Maybe some user mods too, like adding more biners or shock cord locks or what not. I found that if I loosened my end channel on my Incubator, it would actually not slide off my feet as much. I sewed in some grossgain loops to attach the UQ to the hammock via the mini-biners, but I then used some shock cord with the biners to keep the grossgain from ripping out.

    Basically...it is like what I did to my JRB Greylock 4. I added shock cord (secondary Suspension) to all four corners that prussic onto the primary channel suspension. Then you slide the prussic knot up the primary suspension to stretch the uq out thus up against you buttocks and back.
    It is a pretty easy and good solution.
    Carry forth.
