Methods to managing negative convexity/tail risk while shorting vol via options. 1) Buy convexity, the most obvious thing to do but most effective. Managing a book full of uncapped negative convexity exposure Is a hassle and negative EV(if you think about the all the possible outcomes occurring.)

Tail hedging alpha: If you want to structure almost a win, win tail hedging bet. Look for assets that are exhibiting higher relative momentum and place put ratio trades(short ATM, 2x long tails. in the backend of the curve) (1/n). 90 - 120 dte(seems the sweet spot, manage 30 - 60 days In.)
I have also noticed that equities that exhibit higher relative momentum not only breach the Implied move but often have much flatter put skew(thus causing the tails to be relatively cheaper.)(2/n)
