    Single layer 1.6 Hexon for 275 pound fellow?

    Hello All,

    I currently have a WBBB (10') double layer 1.7 and find it very comfortable. I am looking to shed pack weight, however.

    Published Data on Hexon 1.6 indicates a single layer is good for up to 350 pounds. Any thoughts on whether this fabric would be appropriate for my weight?
