    I made a 13 footer from the Hyper D XL its 6 foot wide so the sides are rather floppy but it's extremely comfortable. The main problem is that it's too wide for anything but a custom made underquilt.

    I have an over cover for my Pinnacle 360. It's vented on both sides at the peak so condensation is not a real problem. It's a great winter hammock but too heavy for the summer heat in Florida.

    Therein lies the problem, I own multiple hammocks netless and netted, a pair of tarps, quilts and a couple of packs. Snake skins out of mesh sounds appealing though.
