You can't get a skin 9.6 long, although I understand that Trojan is
coming out with a 'Sailor Sized' model. (However, it'll still be tough
to rip the foil package open with your teeth.)
Seriously, though. Put the splits on the rungs of the wheel. When
lacing up the cover, that's the best place to add a few extra lashes of
waxed whipping thread. I don't remember the stitch I used, but think
it was the basic baseball stitch.
I do really like this cowhide, though. It's brown, and I give it a good
saddle soap wash when I think of it. It looks like I have a teak
wheel. These Mexican cows seem to have tough hides.

So, given a 36" diameter, can you get a skin 9'6" long, or where do you split
it?
Cheers!
