Wtt bias ww for shorter hammock

[spamburglar]

I have a BIAS WW DL in green/coyote with knotty mod, 9' dynaglide RL and whoopie sling suspension. The hammock is in excellent condition,. but I decided an 11' is just not for me. Looking to trade for a WB Traveller or similar. I weigh right at 250, so I need something rated for me. Preferably a 1.1 dl or 1.7 sl, but will consider other options. Thanks for looking.

Spamburglar, I am a bit surprised. I assummed a longer hammock always provided a flatter therefore more comfortable hang. I consider myself on the steep part of the learning curve so I appreciate hearing about the experience of others on this forum.

Can you explain what you don't like about the longer hammock?

Thanks

I took a 3" piece of plastic coat hanger and used it as a toggle so I could get it undone if it didn't work. I tied an overhand knot with the 'toggle' in on each end of the BWW hammock. I'd imagine that shortened it by 8-10 inches. Just sayin. Now it fits me better.

My main issue with the hammock is the diagonal I am most comfortable with also creates a large ridge...almost like an A frame, which creates a huge air gap between hammock and quilt. The only variation I have found that eliminated this problem was going on a diagonal that I found uncomfortable, I never experienced this issue with the shorter hammock, so I am going back to a 10 footer
