I first received my Superbly and was a little stunned to learn it does not include guy lines. I didn't read through the product description like I should have, but live and learn. Aside from the missing cordage there is nothing bad to say about the Warbonnet Superfly, With an 11' ridge line and a 10' wingspan there aren't any hammocks that I am aware of that wouldn't fit comfortably inside. The main reason I started looking the the Superfly was because I needed a 4-Season tarp that would allow me to hike in the winter months without adding a lot of extra weight. Prior to purchasing this I was using the Hennessy Hammock Hex Fly, 70D Polyester. While it is a great rainfly its compressibility was poor and the weight was nearly double of the silnylon.
Because of the panelling and tie out points the Warbonnet Superbly can be pitched in many different modes. Straight to the ground with the doors shut in the winter to trap heat, or in "porch mode" during the summer to enjoy the breeze. I have also seen it configured with tent poles for the side panel pull outs.
For those of you who like to hammock camp or those just looking to start, you realize it is the little things that make a world of difference. For me what I am most looking forward to is making a cup of coffee in the morning without being trapped in the coffin of fabric above me with a burning alcohol stove. It is hard to get motivated and leave the comfort and warmth of your hammock in below freezing temperatures without some caffeine to wake you up. So if you are looking for an all purpose all weather rainfly I highly suggest looking at the Warbonnet Superfly. You can click on the link above to take you right to their site.
