Rolled up and in Snake skins on the trail. Hanging in my sun room at home.

Mines rolled up and reefed with shock cord and cord locks, question, is it damaging to store cuben rolled up tight?

I would think as long as your tarp is dry and not growing mold its fine stored tightly as cuben retains its memory when stretched out. How do sailboaters store their cuben sails constantly? I am not going to baby it as its going to stay in tarp skins stuffed in its cuben bag and ready to go the minute I want to go. Only time will tell. Now if someone answers this thread with a detrimental response,,will immediately change my mind.

For now I keep mine loosely folded as well and store in a tote along with many other items that I can grab fast in an emergency. I am considering using snake skins or storing in a stuff sack on the trail and was wondering about the proper procedure for putting into stuff sack. Stuff it like a quilt or fold it nice and careful. What are you guys doing? Lets see a video. Thanks!
Mine is lying all willy-nilly on the guest bed at the moment, as it saw a lot of weather on the last trip. I usually just end up half-a$$ed rolling it and then stuffing it an extra stuffsack about the size of the one that came with my HG burrow. If I worked at it I could literally put it into a sack about half the size of the one it lives in, so I consider that "stuffed loosely."
