What difference btw. WBBB 1.1 vs. 1.7?

[aztech]

I weigh 260 and the 1.1 dbl works great for me. The 1.7 dbl feels more stiff and I actually prefer the 1.1...thinking about getting a second 1.1 dbl (the new one is my bride's). YMMV

by stiff do you mean i will get a flatter lay, or the material is stiffer and not soft?

Yes.

I find the 1.7 dbl does give a flatter lay because of the stiffer material but is not as comfortable as the 1.1 dbl. The 1.1 dbl allows more "cradle" (for want of a better word) effect of my shoulder and hip and a softer feeling matierial too. Sort of like a Sleep # bed...my wife likes 60 and I like 45. The softer setting seems to offer more support overall with no numb arm.

YMMV

Yes I use the #4 HH Snakeskins to wrap up my WBBB and then I stuff the whole thing in the WB bishop style bag that came with it. Overkill I know but that's how I roll .

There no overkill if instead of HH Snakeskin into the bishop style bag, you use a pair of pantyhose with the toes snipped. Tiny mass and bulk, can cost $1 or less. First pair I expected to last a weekend have lasted over 20 uses.

I would never have come up with the pantyhose idea! Seems very obvious. But I may be prefer the slightly better dirt protection of the snake skins ;-)
Thanks.
