    They will come down past the triangle cords

I don't think you're gonna find something big enough to pitch downward for good wind protection over 2 hammocks and not be rubbing the sides of the hammocks badly...you'd probably need something 15' wide with an RL that was set 8' off the ground

    If wind protection is needed you're better off using 2 tarps and not hanging side by side. 2 side by side hammocks are alot harder to protect.

    The 4 panel pulls on the TF would need to be sealed

    Also, would be a good to see these explained with their differences on your TARPS 101 page
    We were thinking about doing a chart or something

    Other than a few ounces in weight and 10-30 dollars, why would you want a mini or thunder as opposed to the superfly? I'm thinking ventilation - air flow - but one can get that with the super and have optional doors if you get a chilly wind on nights.
    Your thoughts?

    It's that ever elusive "weight loss" for many. Plus it's new and who doesn't want the newest thing if you have the budget.

    A few ounces is a lot to some people.

    One example: my primary use would be bikepacking, and so I have to be just as concerned with volume as with weight. In some cases more so. I like to use frame bags rather than panniers (to better go on narrow trails) and big shelter components just won't fit. I used to have an ENO ProFly and it took up my entire seat bag -- only used it a couple times and returned it for something smaller, despite the nice coverage.

    Awesome, thanks! (Though I should lament more future time being spent drooling over Warbonnet photos...)

    That's awesome. I was just going by the picture I saw on the website. Can you post a pic of it covering the triangle?
