I have recently been using mason line run through the tarp tieout grosgrain material instead of grommets and girth hitching the line to the ends of the poles. No DIY skills needed all you'd need would be the poles and a foot or two of line.

I know it's an expensive option but you could always buy the WB Cloudburst tarp that is made to fit the WBRR.
Don't let life get in the way of living.
Nice to know about Arrow Head bumpers - on my list of must have. What about a good Cuban tarp for the WBRR - any suggestions that could incorporate the double pole mod?
Full-time hanger here.
I've got a WBRR set-up semi-permanently in my backyard. It's been there all fall and all winter here in MI. Using the WB Cloudburst tarp that was made to be used with the RR.
In order to ensure that it clears snow, the tarp is set to a relatively steep angle. Thus, it is virtually always contacting the spreader-bar ends. So after about six months or so of the spreader-bar ends contacting the tarp material, including in high-wind storm conditions, there is no noticeable damage to the tarp. And I use absolutely nothing as "bumpers" at the end of the spreader bars.
Just more proof that the WBRR is spectacularly well designed and difficult to improve upon.
Any tarp with 4 or more bottom tieouts can incorporate the double pole mod. That's the beauty of it!Originally Posted by David.ramblinrose
