    Cloudburst leaking

    In my first backyard test of my new cloudburst I found the little rings that are sewn into the ridge line are leaking. The pullouts leak also as expected since I haven't seam sealed them, but never had the ridgeline leak. It is only leaking where these little rings are, not the entire ridgeline. Also, what are the rings even for? Should I just seam seal around the entire area of the rings?

    The rings provide an attachment point for the WBRR's bugnet shock cords. I would seam seal a bit.

    ah....that makes sense. I'll try and seam seal it. Also took your approach on the pole mod and works perfect. Only had to buy 2 extra poles and the 145° sections. Thanks
