    Agree with sideshow, i've found so far it keeps the lines tidy.

    Just got my 11' Trail Lair in Hexon 1.6 and won't have a chance to hang until next weekend, but oh wow is this fabric soft! The color (moroccan blue) is lovely, and the included bugnet-stuffsack is a very nice, thoughtful thing to include, as is the hammock's stuff sack with openings on both ends (can use as a ridgeline pouch for stuff if wanted; can leave the two ends' loops exposed so I can attach one end while the hammock is in the sack and not dragging on the ground).

    I'm really impressed overall, and it's obviously SO MUCH more spacious than the ENO Jungle it's replacing. One more kudos shout-out to Jared!
    New to hanging!

    This is true, to a point. Compared to a more traditional style UQ (e.g.: HG Incubator), the TW shifts around less. But, I've had both of mine shift out from under my feet a few times. I fixed this by sewing on a small grosgrain loop just below the UQ hook position and inserting a short piece of shock cord with a cord lock. It adds a couple grams, but eliminates any chance of the TW slipping on me.
