Hi. Hopefully one or both of you are still about. :o) I bought a Badawi a few years ago and bought a tarp the following year. However, on the very first trip they were used together, the nylon loops that the long side straps of the tarp 'hooks' over on the tent (around one of the tent poles) came unstitched. They literally tore out of the fly sheet during a bit of breezy night. The loops have since been stitched back in and taped, but we've been too afraid to use the tarp again in fear that they will tear out again. Can I ask, how is it you attach your tarp to your fly sheet? I am tempted to tie a length of bungie cord around the nylon loop to relieve some of the tension placed on it when the trap is pulled tight at the front. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. James.
