I switched from whoopie slings to straps with buckles (Dream Hammock Sparrow) so that I could have shorter suspension when using my Tensa stand, but it would still be 11' to 12' from one end of the stand to the other. I have used a 12' ridgeline winter tarp and the hammock stand was completely within that tarp, but not by a huge amount. I think it would be a little tricky to be under 11' unless there was practically no suspension and you just had the ridgeline length and little else.
