I am in the minority on the size of tarps - I may as well stay in the minority on the fabric. I own two, yes two, cuben fiber tarps, but hike a silnylon. I prefer the stretch to get a taut pitch. Smaller trees lean to the center when you enter the hammock. A little stretch will soak up the slack. The Warbonnet Edge is big enough and has a great cat cut design.
The weight of my zpacks hex is 9.8 oz. in the mesh tarp sleeves with the side guylines. My Warbonnet Edge is 12.0 oz in the stuff sack with side guylines.
