    Was that a Ridge Reaper by LL, or a different UQ? I couldn’t quite tell from the pics. If it wasn’t the reaper, did you experience any side gaps? How did you attach to the Banyan?

    Thanks!

    Yes it is. Sorry for the crappy photography! I can set it back up tonight in the back yard and take additional photos. I hadn't really played around much with the attachment options before setting it up in the wild, but all I did was use the mini biners. I didn't experience any gaps. I think the fit may be slightly different because the width of the new Banyan is less than the original, however. I knew it would be a risk but was willing to try it anyway, and it seemed to work just fine.

    I received an email from him last week about the color. Based on the date of my order, it seems like he is close to being back on schedule.

    No worries! I appreciate the clarification.
