    Catch-all sack length for Ridgerunner?

    Hi, I'm planning to get a Catch-all sack for my Ridgerunner. I hung my Ridgerunner and measured it end to end, and it came out a bit less than 8 feet, so I'm assuming the 8 foot Catch-all would work. Has anyone ever gotten a Catch-all sack for their Ridgerunner?

    Thanks.

    I'm interested, I've been considering this as well. I was thinking around nine feet so as not to crowd anything. I hope this gets some good input.
    If you prepare for failure you will probably succeed.

    I put my RR in my 10’ catch all and it was almost too big, so I think 8’ would be perfect after rolling the triangles into the ends.

    If you are including quilts I'd go a bit longer then 8'.

    So, combining feedback from jdy98p that 10 feet is too much, and the tip from coachhahn that 8 feet is small with quilts, it sounds like 9 feet might be the sweet spot. I will have bulky top and bottom quilts (I'm going with the winter-width sack).

    So how did you make out? Did you go with the 9 footer?

    Yes, I did pick 9 feet, but I haven't gotten it yet. I ended up going with custom robin's egg blue fabric, so that adds to the time since Jared has to order the fabric.

    Silly me, here I thought I was done adding things to my Christmas list... Definitely interested in hearing how the 9 works out.

    Since I am going diy, my next concern is diameter. 20 degree top and bottom quilts and hammock. Think 5 1/2 inches is enough?

    Jared's size options are;

    Available in 2 sizes - Standard & Winter
    - Standard - 13" Width
    - Winter - 20" Width

    Not sure whether that's diameter though. Would seem pretty big for a diameter.
