    Vince, can you tell us about the undercover. I assume it offers some additional warmth and splash protection. Is that correct or is there more that it does? Thanks!

    Hey Ben - the undercover is basically a wind blocker and traps warmth in a "dead" space. It can boost the temp range with your UQ 5-10 degrees. And it also protects your UQ and hammock from sideways rain and also fog as the UC has a DWR coating to shed rain/fog/mist. In cooler weather my wife and I always carry one. Since its a "universal" design, it fits gathered end hammocks as well as bridges. In warm weather it can be quite stifling.

    Got my bridge in charcoal gray hexon 2.4 in the mail today! I've been wondering what angle should I hang the suspension at for an optimally flat lay?

    30 Degrees - just like a gathered end. You may want to raise the foot end a few inches also. When you hang it, the middle should be bowed up a little, that way when you get in it will be pretty flat.

    Need pictures? Let me know - got plenty!
