This is the system I have - a bungie tied to the striker pole runs under the tramp back to block on the rear beam then to a plastic ring topside which the halyard runs through then into the grommet. The line is so twisted that it is getting hung up on the ring and when I pull it to the grommet, the bungie stretches and I have the ring and the twisted line gumming up the works.
Getting the line untwisted seems like the best short term solution.
