Ok so I have been kicking around an idea on how to make my tarp guylines as easily adjustable as my CRL. I only did it to one as to see how well it works. So I took say... 8ft of zing it, added a shock cord tensioner. I then spliced on a dutch hook to the end of the zing it after placing a prusik on the line. So my line now goes... line to tarp, line to stake then loops backs to prusik. I should be able to easliy tighten down my tarp by sliding the prusik up. I havent had this set up yet but I hope it works the way I think it will. One thing that kinda stinks is I made my prusik out of zing it as well (its all I had). I wrapped it 3 or 4 times to get it to bite. I places it in a vise and yanked and yanked, it appears to hold well. So time will tell, I'll report back.
