I use a Hennessy Hamock for overnights and backpacking trips. When I bought it I was a bigger guy so I got the XL. I'm 5' 8" and down to 165ish. Having said that I love the Hennessy. I'm a moving sleeper... side, back, front... I wouldn't be surprised if someone told me I slept standing on my head. The Hennessy is comfortable through it all (may not be room for the headstands, so milage may vary). I have recently been considering a downsize for weight purposes, but I'm nervous about the loss of the extra space due to the amount of tossing and turning I do. I also use a Wilder & Sons hammock to nap/rest in on Craig days, and at the house as my permanent bed. Also a very comfy hammock if I don't need the bug net/rain fly. I have not had a LOT of experience with "bridge hammocks, however I found them to be less stable. I feel like I'm about to flip on the ones I have tried out. It is important to note I have not tried a bridge hammock in several years, and I understand the new ones are less flip prone... just haven't tried them yet.
