I’m sure this has been talked about before. But it seems like
There’s a divide on tarp lines. Stronger, lighter. Vs weaker to prevent tarp failure. I haven’t thought about this for a long time. I use zing it / lash it on my lines with prussics to adjust and for silnylon I add a classic shock cord loop. But I recently have a huge tear in my tarp because of strong wind. I can’t blame it on the guidelines themselves, but I was wondering what everyone thinks about having weaker cordage to either break or bend but then wouldn’t that leave more sag with weaker cordage? And also if the guidelines have no give, does that make for higher stress points for ripping the tarp? Thanks in advance
