Hey guys, what are the risks in using Std. Dev. in the Sharpe Ratio for Hedge Funds?

Hedge fund returns, particularly those using derivatives, aren't normally distributed.

I guess to hedge that risk you can wrap it up. Wrap up normally distributed risk-management techniques when analyzing non-normally distributed returns, that is.

You can game the Sharpe ratio by lengthening STD term.
