    BB just arrived!!!

    All right, after much anticipation it finally arrived. I did not get to make it home until late but I had to put on my head lamp and hang it up. My first initial thoughts are this thing is great the way it lays is so comfortable. I do not think I will ever get back in my Velcro HH. The only question I have is how do I loosen it up for take down or adjustment. I have the webbing suspension. It just seemed really tight. Don't get me wrong better that than the opposite and I can get it down I was just curious if there was some great BB secret. Also has anybody tried to put their HH over cover on their BB I have one and thought it would be useful if I could use it loosely overtop of my BB.

    The straps will get a little more supple with time. There is no good "trick", just turn the buckles perpendicular to the webbing and get your finger in the loop that was just, moments ago, bound tight in the buckles. The less tension, the easier it is to adjust. Enjoy!

    I simply lift up on the hammock to take of some of the tension put on the line. It seems to work for me.
