scribbled this interesting note:

When I get a chance to reshingle the other side of those ridges, I'll
have to pull the nails in the Dow Corning Rigid Roll ridge vent and I
suppose renail in the same holes. Will the decking hold the nails
securely the second time?

Not really. Use screws instead.

What kind of screws? Offhand, I thought of something similar to drywall
screws, but outdoors they are likely to seize and snap when you try to
remove them, and the heads don't look right for shingles.
