    Will WB Superfly Fit Over HH Explorer Asym?

    Hello all,

    Currently have the HH Hex fly for my HH Explorer Asym and a trip back in December has convinced me I want doors. I was about to pull the trigger on a WB Superfly. I've read the specs online and the Superfly and the HH Hex tarp are allegedly the same length -- 11'. However, I just actually measured my HH Hex tarp and it is actually 142" of actual material at the ridge line, NOT the 132" the website claims. I still think the WB Superfly will meet my needs very nicely, but I'd really like to hear if anyone has firsthand experience replacing the HH Hex tarp with a WB Superfly.

    TIA

    Jim

    The Superfly is a great tarp...you will not be disappointed if you choose to purchase one...another option...you could have us sew doors on your HH Hex. If interested, please see our website below in signature.

    Donna,

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm already looking forward to the 5 ounces of weight savings of the Superfly and feel I'd be moving in the wrong direction to add more weight to the HH Hex tarp.

    That said, if I get much more annoyed with the one-sided zipper, there may well be a Zipper Mod 4 in my future.

    The mod on the HH is great especially during the summer when you want to use the hammock as a chair. Gets the netting off your neck.
