The heavier vinyl is more weight, requiring more tension. Add the extra weight of water....
If it is a long slide, and an A&E "standard" topper, they have a cradle kit that will hold the tube straight-
On edit, to be clear, the cradle only fixes sagging roller tubes- if the tube is bowed in, and material pounding in the middle.
Thats a nice system, but it wont help me on this. The bar is not bending, the vinyl is sagging in the middle even with no water on it. The two ends are as tight as can be, but when the rain comes it collects in the sag and the weight of the water then unrolls the awning more.
