Received my Hyperlight today. It looks great. Not sure it was worth $130.00 more than I paid for my Expedition. About a pound lighter and the hammock fabric is almost silk like smooth.

The Ultralight Backpacker is supposed to minimize the possibility of mosquitoes biting through the bottom of the hammock because a tighter weave of nylon is used vs. the Expedition. Probably the same holds true for the Hyper.

I can't use one. I'm a little too portly for my ULB.:o
