    Oopps--sorry, Ekul for not answering. I want an adjustable ridgeline and also need a brighter color (yellow) as my eyes dont pick-up the dark line very well anymore.

    The only lil' thing to watch for on it is not to tighten it all the way on the adjustable end ... hard to get it loose then.
    I will show some of it in a video soonest.

    If your pulling it that far in.... youve got quite a bit of sag in your hang.

    IIRC the RL pulled to its shortest is around 82".

    Look forward to a vid!

    Just seeing what that sag would feel like for sitting in the hammock recliner style ...... I did get it pulled out and now know not to be over-zealous ... as I am apt to be.

    I figured that was the case.

    How was the comfort?

    WHAT?! A clown being over zealous! No way!
    Now listen Shug, you be nice with the gear Opie custom made just for you.
    Maybe you need to take a cruise in the snow on the MUni just to get rid of all that pent up energy mister.
    (Uh oh, I think that was your mum's spirit talking to you)

    BTW-Can't wait to hear about the lolligaging in the hammock soon.

    Happy Trails,
    Being lazy Barefoot.
