Hi, everyone. I am a long-time hanger, but I have never tried a bridge hammock. I am wondering if it is possible with a bridge hammock to hang with your legs lower than the rest of your body.
This is important for me, because for some reason over the years my legs have become very susceptible to cramping if they aren't at least slightly lower than my torso when I'm laying down. (This is only after I've worked them hard, as when backpacking.) I have therefore come up with my own gathered-end design that lets me lay with my legs lower.
I was looking at Nature Calls' review of the new REI Quarter Dome bridge hammock, and his legs actually look a little higher than his torso, which wouldn't work for me. It made me wonder if all bridge hammocks are similar, since the selling point for bridge hammocks is a flatter lay than gathered end.
Thanks!
