I'm with cougarmeat on this one, though I rarely do porch mode. Not sure why. I suppose I don't spend that much time lounging in the hammock, where a view is necessary. When the weather is exceptionally nice, I'll do a quaterback mode.. but that's it. I hereby commit to using porch mode more in the coming months.
I almost always pitch the tarp at the same angle as the hammock (foot end higher and head end almost touching the head end hammock suspension) and I always enter from the foot end so the extra headroom is appreciated. I find it does a better job of controlling water runoff too. That said, sometimes there's no need to get down and tight and I'll pitch the tarp level and higher up.
