   These things work. Have been using them for about 8 months now. I have converted all my tarp ridge lines to using NAMA Claws. I left a set out in the weather for a month and there was no corrosion ( they are made of SS ). Lowest temps I have used them to is 11 degrees.

   Why would you use the continuous ridgeline w/ Mama Claws if you don’t have the ability to adjust the tarp location without losing tension in the tarp? I thought that the ability to reposition the tarp was the key advantage of the continuous ridgeline. Am I missing something?
   It makes more sense to tie the end of the tarp directly to the tree & use Nama Claw to tension it. This will eliminate the ridgelines over the tarp & save the weight.

      The claws are pretty light so the weight penalty is low, but if you want to save a few grams by cutting away line then you can do end only tie outs. There are many more advantages of a continuous ridge line besides the adjustment.
