I use pipe and drape with 35 pound plates and 35 pound sandbags. I also use a breathable fabric that is clipped together with hand clamps from Home Depot. The idea is for the fabric to sway with the wind instead of becoming a sail and bringing down your backdrop. I use a lot of pipe and drape and configure an enclosed backstage area. This allows me to put the pipe and drape in a rectangle which gives it more strength because of the configuration of the structure. I hope this all makes sense. I also like to use pipe and drape because every experienced crew member I have used already knows how to set it up.
