Hello everyone!
I just purchased a Mamajamba and I love it! It is so big and light, about the same weight in the hand as my Yukon tarp but way bigger! I've been having a small problem with staking it out I suppose. Let me start by telling you how I have it set up.
I have it suspended with a continuous ridgeline using carabiners like here.

For the tieouts/pullouts I have zing it (6' and 9' lengths for the corners and tieouts respectively) attached to Dutch tarpworms on shock cord attached to the tri-ring on the tarp. That sounds confusing..... so here is a picture!

My problem comes in when the wind blows into the tarp it stretches the shock cord out and the tarp starts to encroach on my hammock. I go from a nice roomy tarp, to a claustrophobic mess in a few seconds. I really like the adjustment of the tarpworms but this inward stretch is uncool.
Does anyone have advice on how I can remedy this situation? I would like to continue using the tarpworms (honestly just because I paid for them) but if I can't so be it.
