Also the finish seems to be fine.

Hi All:
I built a grass strip on my property. I put up a windsock that I bought
from
Sporty's. It is 18"dia. x 8'1". I has only lasted about 4 months. There
are
vertical cracks all along the length and I'm sure it is not reading the
wind
properly anymore. It is constructed of "long-life polyester fabric with
double-stitched seams". Is this a normal life span of a windsock or
would
another type last longer?
Thank you,
Jimmy

Is the material ripped or is the finish on the material cracked? I
usually get about a year. I have tried socks from several different
sources and they all lasted about the same lenght of time. UV is the
worst but temp. extremes like we get here in Wisconsin is hard on them
too.
