    Because a 60 ft long 8ft drop tarp would be really heavy....I would bet.

    They claim their 14 oz is just as durable as the 18 oz. I can tell you from my experience that has not been the case. I've had wood chew right through them, where I never had that with my 18oz 4's. It's also harder to handle in the wind than the 18 oz.

    They just don't have the quality you see from others. It shows in the stitching, D rings showing rust within a couple months, mysterious tears that there's no explanation for. They import them from China, and it's a case of getting what you pay for.

    I do like the tarp straps we got from them, they've held up real well.

    I don't think they're a bad company or anything like that, but at least for tarps imo it would be better to spend a couple hundred $ more for a more durable product.

    Portion control is the key. Had to learn that myself.
