    Tarp Continuous Ridgeline

    I just watch one of Shug's tarp rap videos.
    I really like the Ridgeline, I have some 1.9 tech line from DIY Gear.

    Will this suffice, or should I go with a larger diameter line.

    Thanks

    Your 1.9mm line is plenty good. My continuous ridgeline is 1.75mm.

    My CRL is between 30' and 35'. It has worked well for me. YMMV.

    My forum name is Fish<><; I'm in the navy; and I hate sleeping on the ground. If I didn't need ground to walk on or measure resistance to, I think I could happily give it up.

    Your Mileage May Vary
    In other words, your results may not be the same as mine.
