recommended tarp ?

[soulstar1963]

i'm looking to buy a new tarp .........anyone recommend me one.....maybe a dd tarp 3x3 ?

 

[Shewie]

Yep the 3x3m is a really handy size

What will you be using it for, hammocking or bivvying ?

 

[charleslockerbie]

the DD is a nice tarp, just the right length for me.

only issue, is that they dont supply a ridge-line with it. Not a problem,its just confusing as you get 4 pegs and guy-lines.

 

[Loenja]

4 pegs and guylines can be used fot diamond pitch or rectangular over say two walking sticks

i use a 3x3 m dd tarp

 

[Teepee]

You can't go wrong with the DD.

I love mine.

Another vote for the DD

Tatonka 3x3 for me. Had it years.

 

[Highbinder]

Altho still a noob when it comes to this kinda kit, another vote for the DD tarp.

 

[drewdunnrespect]

another option is the bigger dd tarp or if you really fancy splanshing out a true north out doors tarp of the same size which is 4.50 X 3.00

i thought the tatonka tarp isnt 3x3 whch is why i didnt buy one regards dave

Tatonka do a range of sizes. Mines a 3x3m Tarp 2. Although I didn't buy mine from here, have a look at this link:

I bought mine years ago from the group buy on here that Magickelly organised and have never, ever regretted it.

These guys http://www.outdoorequipmentsupplier.com/products-maccat-tarps.html come highly reccomended, but I'm not sure the cut would work for ground dwelling.

DD tarp, cheap as chips, 3m x 3m and does the job rather well.

A 3m x 3m tarp is so versatile. With a few pegs, the odd guy & some form of poling you can cover all eventualities from simple windbreak to total enclosure. Go for it!
