    When I had my step with loads like that I would put my six footers on the load first, pull them all the way to the deck on one side, then throw the eights over top and pull them down to the other side of the deck, never had a problem with tarps wanting to ballon up this way.

    Now i'm pissed! I was at Mills Fleet Farm today and they had 1000 foot rolls of military surplus para cord for $69.99.

    I stared at it a long time trying to think of what I could use it for but could'nt come up with anything. Now you gave me a good reason and i'm sitting here without it.

    I wanted to buy it so bad:biggrin_25523:

    I have to do that with my tarps, which are all 16x24's with D rings all the way around.
    One tarp over the load to the trailer, then another overlapping that one going to the other side.
    Unless you haul the same stuff every load, there is no "perfect" tarp IMHO.
