    That was exactly my fear as well...

    Sold the BB and haven't looked back. The RR is just so dang comfortable. Lol

    +100. I'm sold on the Ridgerunner so much so that I bought another as a back up for the future in case something happens to mine.

    The foot to head looks good to me. Just because the others said it felt good to them does not mean it's right for you. Maybe try some more sag? One size DOES NOT fit all. Good luck finding your fit.
    My ego said, SURE you can.
    Half way in my body said OH NO YOU CAN'T

    Was your head on the right end in the pic? If so, based on where the under quilt is positioned, it looks like you may have been laying too far up toward the peak. Might be why it felt better when you moved way down in the middle of the night.

    Compare your under quilt position to the photo you took of my hammock that same night and you can see the difference in where our heads were positioned.FB_IMG_1466647634055.jpg

    It may just take a few hangs for your torso to get used to it. Like new boots or shoes...sometimes it takes a while until the fit settles.
    Carry forth.
