I still don't know why more people don't use a carabiner (the long side used for the marlins pike) as they are both very light, easy to store, will not crush as a hollow shaft could, have other uses, and can serve for hanging stuff off of (i.e. boots or poles).
A warning to use them in the right way as shown here or you'll be on the ground (unless you use Dutch Clips the old way).

Oh yeah, in some set-ups you can then hook your tarp RL in as well to reduce possible lateral movement.
