wasn't a problem with my TheMightyHobie18:

Bias Cut

Most trampolines with boltrope track on 3 sides are bias cut which means that the fibers of the mesh run at a 45 deg. angle to the sides. This eliminates the need to lace from 2 sides since the fibers pull at the adjacent sides from the lacing side and stretch the entire surface tight. This also increases the holding power of the grommets since all the fibers of the mesh can wrap around the reinforcement.

The other problem with a 1-piece tramp on a Hobie 14/16 is that you can't get the tramp tight enough to take the slop out of the frame. You need center lacings if you want a tight boat.
