    guy lines

    I have used the AHE guy lines set for my BMJ yarp and liked them. I just ordered a HG Cuben tarp and am getting ready to order more guy lines. My question is concerning the JRB self tensioning lines. Anyone use and like them? pros and cons, please?

    you don't need to use self tensioning lines with a cuben tarp, the cuben fiber doesn't stretch like silnylon so you can just crank it down tight and not have to worry about it going slack
