Sam,
Think of it this way, not pulling it causes it to relax. :)
Seriously, in light breeze you may want a few wrinkles in the luff. Try it and
see. Evven if it's carbon, the warp and weave of the cloth may be at slight
angles to the loads. Those small angles will allow a bit of stretch.
I still adjust my Kevlar/Mylar genoa and see a difference in the location of
max draft.
