    Are you lying in the hammock straight, and ending up in an uncomfortable u-shaped banana shape?
    Or are you lying at an angle to get a flat lay?

    If you aren't already, slide closer to the head end. (I think that's right... it's what I do and I'm comfy.) Also you can try bending a knee out to the side, alternating which knee, and shift slightly toward the bent knee side.

    Thank you to everyone for all the suggestions. I think I need to raise the foot end more. I'll stop when I slide out the head end!!!

    Sad to say, but sometimes, the hammock is the problem. I fought with calf ridge for a year with my first hammock until I decided to give a different brand a try. It has been night and day since receiving the new hammock, and I'll never go back!

    Do you use a structural ridgeline with your hammock? I highly recommend using one as it will help you get the right amount of slack in your hammock regardless of the angle of your suspension. You can fine tune the length of your structural ridgeline to dial it into your sleep preferences.
