Is this a dangerous idea with my WBRR?....

One evening I inserted my Klymit Static 30", 3" thick pad between my double RR at the recommended angle of hang. I like the pad because it raises me up enough to feel less constricting on my legs and shoulders. Next morning I embarrassed myself by flipping over. Try getting out of that situation with the bug net zipped up! groan...
I got the idea next time to fasten my tree straps about 6 feet high on each end creating a huge drop in the middle of the hammock, like maybe 45 degrees. This made my RR a lot less tipsy. I put in my pad and surprisingly lying in the hammock felt just as flat as before yet more comfortable. Question is, I was hearing a lot of creaking and groaning at my suspensions. But slept fine the next night. Should I expect something to break if I continue this idea? Thanks

I am thinking you will be ok. Posting a picture of this set up would help. Are you sure the

wasn't your back ?

I have never heard of a safety issue from having your suspension being too loose. You are relying a lot on that pad for structure though so that might be a failure point. If it is flattening you out when there is that much of an angle you probably have it inflated almost all the way. I use a 25" tensor in my RR and it makes all the difference making the lay even flatter. Might be some middle ground though between where you were at the first time and the 45 degrees you got to the next night. I will say though I have never had a problem tipping over in my RR (at least so far, knock on wood) so might not be the best resource on this.
