My head is now way below WBBB recommendation. I will measure it later. I might move it back up a notch. Though I also might release the foot end one loop in the daisy chain and that should also take some tension out of the srl.
What I really need is some sort of quantitative measure of comfort. But what does comfort even mean. Even distribution of force? Flatness?
BTW, it my understanding that flat and firm are orthogonal. Flat being from a slide sleepers view that it will not taco me.
And to keep going on I can’t help but compare this to tuning an engine. There has to be a methodology to dialing in your hang. Like do you get ridgeline/sag dialed in first? Or do you do head/foot height? I am guessing you need to cycle back and forth between the two for fine tuning as foot box comfort definitely changes with h/f ratio. But where is best to start? Right now I feel a bit like someone throwing darts at a spinning target. Though I am very much an engineer and appreciate tuning procedure. My work is similar. ‘Do this variable set first, and then dial in a second set and then go back and tweak the first set’ as everything has secondary interactions. Though this is a little more complicated as I have found that what is most comfortable at 10PM does not appear to be the thing that is most comfortable at 3AM.
Though maybe I am over thinking this.
