Full rainfly tents... but I agree with pitching a tarp over or at least partially like what Japanese campers do. I love tarps over ez ups because you can be creative. Its like origami art. Not to metion using tarps instead of EZ ups saves you soo much packing space in your vehicle. People get intimated by them but all i do is stake my lines down first . Then put poles under which poles will now have the tension to stand on thier own. And just adjust the tension from there. Most People have tarp set up backwards by having one person hold the pole up while the other stakes down the lines... You dont need to do that and its more than easy enough for one person if you stake the lines down first.
Definitely worth the money invested in the tarp, 5 dollar ozark tent and the 2 cans. It has definitely been warmer this year in northen Ohio than last year. You at the last talking about your car sounds weird lol.....So used to you always talking about biking✌️😎.
I totally agree with doing this regardless if it rains or not. Definitely helps with keeping the Sun from beating down on the tent, discoloration , tree sap or anything else that can stain your tent, gives you extra shade and most importantly keeps your tent from getting saturated doing heavy rain. Tents are water resistance but not water proof and Ozark Trail tents definitely don’t hold up in heavy rain. I’m definitely going to make this part of my set up. Thank you for this video!
for a $30 setup.. this is good.. but i suggest having more tarp space in the front side.. for if you need to do some cooking and stuff.. btw, im using a 18x10 tarp, enough to cover (2/3 of the tent when im with the kids) and my hammock on the opposite side and my cooking area in the middle using 2 ridgelines crossing over the hammock.. where a good 1/3 of the tarp covers the hammock..
I really enjoyed this. Thank you for taking the time out of the busy schedule to you know how to make this video pretty informative. Maybe on your next go round you can go on your bicycles Look forward to next video

@@sebikelifeusvetparatrooper I know. Wish it was my bike and trailer instead of the car.

Amazing setup man, looks great.
@FloridaEbikes Thanks brother.
Indeed bro you can puff puff give and not worry about the smoke cherry🔥burning out from a leak from the tent.
I like how you are doing this!!!
