I am looking at buying a Big Daddy Tarp. It looks like a nice piece of well made gear for a good price. I have also been impressed with the company's customer service. I have one concern, though, and would appreciate some input from people who own a Wilderness Logics tarp. My concern is the way the line loops are attached to the tarp at the corners and ridge. What has been your field experience with this tarp developing small holes or tearing in the silnylon along the long edge of the triangular reinforcement patch? I'm not saying there is anything wrong with it, but I would prefer a patch about double that size made of a lighter weight material to spread the tension out. If it holds up, though, it really doesn't matter to me. Any field experience or comments about durability would help me. Please give an estimate of how many times you've used your tarp if your comment is that they "hold up fine".
