I am a hammock newbie looking to get his first set of gear. As a large guy (6'5", 245 lb), I am looking at longer hammocks (like the DangerBird 72), and I'll need a tarp to go with it.

I've noticed several hex tarps come in two ridgeline sizes (Wilderness Logics Big Daddy & Hammock Gear 4S 4D CC Tarp are two examples).

All you folks out there with longer hammocks: have you found yourself using (or wishing you had) a longer tarp?
