Having had both. I honestly think the Bonded makes for a stronger ridgeline. It adds enough "structure" that I had not anticipated this benefit. I expected the added waterproofness, so that was never a question. But having run it for the last couple of trips including some heavy winds in the shining Rock Wilderness in NC. I'm starting to feel like this advancement has made all other tarps inferior. I realize how bold of a statement that is, but at a $20 upcharge over Dutch's other tarps. Shoot you'd be silly not to at least add them to your wish list.
