    Not that I would ever reccommend exceeding the weight listed by a manufacturer.....

    I weigh in at 250 and use an asym myself. I havent noticed any problems other then some s t r e t c h i n g that occured during the first usage. Of course I do accept that I am in violation of the warrenty and if something ever does go wrong Im SOL. He does have models with higher capacities at the site.

    I'm 220lb as well, I only got to use my A-sym from Damascus to the Daleville, Troutdale area, but I had no problems. I'm going to use the HH Thru hiking this summer. If your long distance hiking you will probably lose a lot of weight anyhow(both in beer belly and upper body muscle)
