Can you drag down a roll up under a heavy load?

Yes...and I have done it...

thousands of pounds of pressure along the whole track is like a brake
in a brake drum. A full flogging set of sails is a real drag.

It's a drag whether it's a roll up or a hank on in thos conditions...

Every crusing boat should have a storm jib and main. The P40 that
took off crusing next to me had a bullet proof set made in
international orange.

Ditto that...
