awright. i'm about to buy a new custom superfly and i'm tryna decide which pole mod to use. in winter i like it to shed snow and have space, but in summer i like to fly high as possible for super doublesided porch mode unless it's raining sideways.

from hours down the rabbit holes of pole mod commentary, i think what i learn is that center pole while beaky will give me free standing porch on one side that flips closed quick? what about holding up to wind? would i be better with sidlepull poles? and since i often pitch in one place for a few days, should i switch to silpoly? i was happy with silnylon, but my current one is developing tears. it's gotten about 270 nights of use, some of which were HARD use, so i think that's reasonable.

i know you guys have OPINIONS, so i may as well harvest some up.
