Hi . I'm not to sure . Might take a bit of research. I have a few tarps by DD hammocks , don't think they're silnylon though. Aqua quest make a variety of tarps to . One of them might suit your needs. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance . Good luck in your search 👍

I have the 3-5 x 3.5 and will get out soon to test and set up. It's impressive that you made this video in the rain. Question, with this set up, in a real blow rain would enter the tent from the opening. What then, Mark? Cheers.
@treksntarps2 жыл бұрын
Hi Morris . Thank you for watching . Yes rain and wind can be an issue . Generally , as long as the wind isn't blowing directly into the opening its ok and keeps you dry and sheltered. So you take into account wind direction if needed. The wind can change direction and that can be a problem. But if you're out and you know rhe weather is going to be potentially bad there are loads of ways of setting up your tarp accordingly ( a hexamid is very good in bad weather ,a plow point offers loads of cover ) Wouldnt advise camping in a hurricane though 🌪🌧. I've spent the night in fairly breezy wet conditions and been dry and comfortable . I would say before you head off on an adventure practice setting up and research some configurations. You can make anything that works with a 3x3. Hope this helps . Take care 🏕👍
