Great video , I love this tarp its a very quiet material and I use I a lot draped over my tent as an extended porch so I can sit under if weather turns bad.
Glad your channels growing in numbers, not surprised its always a pleasure. Personally I think they supply enough for the price to get you going, Its just a ridgeline that`s missing which is more of a personal choice on what you use. Cheers... Ralph
Hi, just started watching your videos and have now subscribed to your channel. Really enjoyable stuff. Been doing "normal" camping for a few years now but plan to start experimenting with the dark art of tarp origami. Not really to save weight but just to broaden my horizons and have a different experience. Would the four sided pyramid shape work with this tarp do you think? Or does that only work on a perfectly square tarp? I like the pyramid design because it's totally enclosed and hence gives great protection against the elements.
For what I use a tarp for, I don’t use more than 4. For them to raise the price on every tarp for pegs and lines that not everyone wants is not a good thing. Most people upgrade lines and pegs anyway.
I've never been able to find out why they settled on 2.9x3 rather than 3x3. It seems a bit niggardly to chop off that 100mm but surely there must be a reason... Anyone?
I wonder if it's so that they can say it's under half a kilogram. I worked out the weight if it were 3x3m and it would've been over 500g. Perhaps for marketing purposes?
gotta disagree about extra pegs and ropes Dan , i`d rather they put no pegs or ropes at all with any of their tarps and just knocked a fiver off the price , most of us bin them off anyway and i personally have a little bag with my preferred pegs and ropes that i take with any tarp i happen to need
What is with reviewers like you bitching about about wanting MORE included stuff? 1 your supposed to use the GUY lines to GUY the four corners of the tarp. 2 YOU'RE supposed to supply a ridge line for suspending the tarp, so whining about a lack of guy lines is caused by your own misunderstanding. 3 DD could have NOT included ANY guy lines or pegs...making you supply your own, and not lowered the price; or they could include 6 of each, making whiners like yourself happy, and RAISE the price to cover the extra pegs/lines. They didn't include TREES either, gonna complain about that too? They list,on the website, what is included, if you don't like what's missing DON'T buy it. SO tired of ppl whining about "should include" more...when they DON'T say "I'd pay more if they did". Most included items equals a higher cost. And NOT everyone WANTS or needs 6 lines/pegs. But almost everyone NEEDS 4 to get started. Why should I pay more cuz you WANT more included. DD isn't packaging JUST for you. If YOU need MORE than YOU buy the EXTRA you want...quit telling manufactures to package for YOU'RE desires...mistaken desires to start with when you mispropose included items.
My god you repeated your self so match i got sick of reading its at the end . Stop whining about the same thing. Thankyou for watching and taking the time to comment
@@englishwoodsman says the guy who, in the video, said he wished DD would include SIX/MORE guy lines, at least FOUR TIMES. And I watched all 7:42 of the video. SUFFERING thru your repeated whining. HIPOCRITE
@@englishwoodsman how do you expect me to decide IF I like it...if I DON'T watch it? And then I do watch it And comment...instead of addressing the subject of the comment...you complain about the exact same thing YOU do in the video...hence....HIPOCRITE. MY comment wasn't about you REPEATING yourself. But let's whine about what takes a minute to read vs the minutes I took to watch it.
I appreciate english woodsman honesty in his reviewing. If he doesn't say what he thinks, how would we trust him? If he ain't to your style, just don't watch!
I have used this tarp for four years now. Awesome piece of kit.
Got the same Tarp, I added a new ridge line, and tie outs. Changed the bag with a compression sack, much easier to get it back in. Great tarp.

Do you think they would put there prices up
Funny you mention the guy lines. I only use 2 in most cases, but I do have a separate rigeline rope. JB

Hey bud awesome video! I need something like this man
Its a great tarp pack size is great

Anyone?
Yep, been scratching my head on that one too !! Looking into getting into hammocking, not sure if this will give the right amount of coverage.
I wonder if it's so that they can say it's under half a kilogram. I worked out the weight if it were 3x3m and it would've been over 500g. Perhaps for marketing purposes?
Do they do a camo one yet
They do some Camouflage tarps mate
Can't use these in Australia. "Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures (above 40C and below -15C)"
Good Stuff Mate
