    Question Snakeskins Conflict with ridge line

    Okay so I have a continuous ridge line with soft shackles for the tarp attachment and I kinda want some snakeskins for it but I can't do it with a continuous ridge line.
    Shouls I just switch to a non continuous or just not have snakeskins?

    You can just put the snakeskin over the tarp and ridgeline together.

    but I can't put the tarp away like that because the ridge line sticks out each end

    It's supposed to stick out each end so you can attach the line's to the trees. When packing up you can figure 8 hank the lines from each end.

    Oh okay but I usually put the ridge line under the tarp.
    Do I have to put it over?

    Under or over, both work with snakeskins. You can make (or buy) snakeskins with a little pocket sewn into each end for the hanked lines.
