    I've hung from evergreen without much stickiness on the zing it. What are your trees and rope?

    I use zing it too. It stays connected to the tarp. Figure 8 the long end like you. The tarp is in a snake skin, but then gets stuffed into a mesh bag and clipped onto the seat behind me if its wet, it can dry some, if it's raining I don't need to open anything to get it out.

    I use 1.7 zing-it for the ridge line. I've not had a problem with sticky here, but I agree with the concept of stowing the sticky line in a plastic bag (probably a small ziploc)
