i find that if i get the tarp taught when i hang in the hammock it lowers the hammock too much for the tarp to be really effective and if i string the tarp up a bit lower than that hammock suspension it ends up sagging a bit once i'm in the hammock.
sorry if this derails your thread but i think it's fairly relevant.
