    I understand about sales. Company need money to keep business to go forward.

    But I think I design for myself soon.

    I'm another vote for the Warbonnet Ridgerunner. I had a Hennessy and the Warbonnet Blackbird. They are both very nice but I find the Ridgerunner the most comfortable and I have a decent view of the world around me without lifting my head. Sure it's a little heavier but not a lot and definitely worth carrying. I also find the 'saddle bags' to be very useful. I can keep a very decent amount of stuff right at my fingertips and never even feel it while sleeping.

    Ridgerunner is easy to shake than Blackbird?

    "Easy to shake?" If you mean literally to shake it, to get bugs off or leaves or something, than yes it is very easy shake. Just flip it over and shake it. If you have a real mess then the screen, if you get one, unzips on 3 sides and now you can clean every inch of your Ridgerunner. If you are just referring to hanging it then I use toggles, whoopies etc. on my Ridgerunner and find it easy and quick to hang.

    Sorry. I mean balance. When you use gathered end hammock and move your body, it's swing less than bridge hammock?

    Oh, now I get it, that does make the question more logical. (I may be slow but I get there.) It is a little more tippy but I have never even come close to falling out. I did have a few moments in the beginning where I tipped more than I wanted to when I sat up but that has been it. Once you get used to it sitting up and or moving around is no big deal.
    (Buy, that question really does make more sense now.)
