    XLC delivered in just over a week...

    I'm 6'0" and 185 lbs. I recently ordered a new XLC in single layer 1.7... I've owned two other WBBBs (single layer 1.7 and 1.1) and my current ultralight rig for summer is a 1.1 single with "hardware-free" suspension that weighs-in at 14 and 5/8 ounces with suspension (thanks Grizz).

    I put up my new XLC for a test hang to see for myself if the improvements I've been reading about are as good as I've heard. I am happy to report that they are. The XLC is much more comfortable than the shorter WBBBs are (in my opinion).

    If you are 6' tall or taller and are considering a Warbonnet hammock you should give serious consideration to the XLC. Sure, it's a couple of dollars more and a little heavier (I got mine down to 23 ounces total after replacing the ridgeline with dynaglide, adding dynaglide whoopies and including tree straps made from mule tape).

    I am very happy with my new XLC!

    I have a WTB 1.1 double layer XLC thread started, but I'll probably have to order one from Brandon as I don't see and XLC 1.1 DL being sold... Etither way I'm sure I'll love it at 6'2" tall.

    Seems as though Brandon's delivery times have come down as of late. Glad you like the XLC
