The 2 SG hammocks are identical lengths to each other so I view it as free comfort, especially since I most often carry a 12' tarp anyways and will note that that's the length of tarp SG sells. I suppose it's the engineer in me who cares, but it drove me crazy why when I set the ridgeline to 110" that the suspension would need to be set so much steeper than the typical 30* in order to get the right tension in the ridgeline and height above the ground. When I really got my hammocks out and compared all 4 against each other was when it "clicked."
