Tarp Chat & Tutorial Part 1 ..Porch Mode and Line Tensioners

[@TRUTHproJects]

I'm literally watching this video again for the 1,287,597th time. Not because I've forgotten anything. But solely because Shug is so fun to watch. Like seriously my dude. You are awesome and I hope you never forget it!

[@shugemery]

Thankee TRUTH.

[@collerdgreens]

Your channel is so refreshing. Every other camping channel is filled with ego and very little actual camping info. You go into great detail and cover more than enough stuff in one video. We are blessed to have you. Thanks for everything, shug! I’ve learned so much watching your channel

[@shugemery]

Thanks for the good words....Whoooooo Buddy)))))

[@dmueller1875]

Disabled to discourage the Shug haters... how many could there be??? You were the reason I now sit in the woods for hours at a time. You showed me how. I think anyone who watches your vids find then informative and very entertaining. I for one appreciate the effort that goes into making these and the dedication to share your enjoyment most don't have.

[@shugemery]

Oh ....there are some. Glad these got you to the woods...that is my reward.

[@festakar]

Who would have thought that learning about tarp set ups and hammocks could be so entertaining... Ground dweller convert. Thanks for an entertaining informative show Shug.

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy))))

[@JustinHEMI05]

Shug, I just want to say thank you for all of the time and effort that you put into these videos. After 30 years of sleeping..., or rather..., not sleeping, on the ground, and after trying countless pads. mats and pillows, I'm going to try hammock camping. I discovered your videos and they have been helpful and entertaining. Thank you.

[@shugemery]

JustinHEMI05 It is my pleasure for sure...glad they were of value.

[@tinasellens8138]

Hi Shug I"m a single mom with a disabled son and i am getting our hammok set started. we have 2 hammoks and 2 tarps ordered and on there way. you inspired us. we are noobs at this. lol we have been watching your vidos. we love ya. thank you. keep the vids coming.

[@bradleycampbell5933]

it is a crime you dont have more subscribers. you are funny and bring and share good information. tip of the hat-- and much respect Shug

[@shugemery]

Thankee. My subbers has been growing sreadily. I am cool with it. Not so big I can't answer everyone at this point.

[@chrischristian7561]

Bradley Campbell plus I like how Shug NEVER asks for you to subscribe or like his stuff. his how to videos and gear reviews get most of the views, but his trail reports are my favorite. I have seen a sharp increase in his subscribers just in the past couple of years. his subscribers also view most of his videos (very loyal viewers).

[@billfish9553]

You show me so many things that I need to know in a most entertaining fashion! Thank you.

[@Robjmar7]

These 10 videos are a must to watch. Very very informative with tons of tips and tricks for comfortable tarp use. All you need to know about tarps......Thanks Shug

[@noshoes]

You are ever improving in both your nonsense and your no nonsense! Thoroughly enjoyed learning about tarps and I felt like a toddler again when you threw us up in the air.

[@shugemery]

Thanks for that. I love the camera toss.

[@repeat_defender]

you are hilarious. i actually used to be a member of a circus as well, your antics make me miss the old days. my circus drifted apart a few years back, best days of my life when we were together! you remind me of my buddy, our barker. great guy!

[@AtamDardon]

You being left handed makes a lot of sense. Every lefty I know, myself included, tend to be a bit off-kilter. Which, just makes life more fun, in my opinion. Anyhoo, your video was as entertaining and informative as ever. I love that you talk about things that most people are too scared to mention. Really helps the people that are learning the ropes of camping and hiking.

Those loop knots in the guy lines are clove hitches, one of my most very knots to tarp with. Good to see ya fella looking forward to more tarp use review and a trip report. Beas

Got out with my dad for our first winter hang, you’re spot on about learning from mistakes. It was magical but I have to take some of your advice n get warm before bed. If you have time to see my latest video I overheated(I think) and my tarp stretched over night so ended up with butt to snow, cold but so peaceful. My UQ stayed nice n dry but my hammock, TQ and myself were soaked/iced! Practice practice practice. Thank you for all the inspiration Shug, all secure

[@shugemery]

Ahhh....your underquilt protector was between your hammock and UQ and created a vapor barrier thus all the condensation on your hammock. Looks like you had 2 underquilt protectors. Lose one of them and use it on the outside of everything. Ya'll ate well for sure. Looked good.

[@Evan_Le5]

@@shugemery I can’t tell you how cool it is to talk with you. I guess I oughta not get too warm so I don’t produce lots of vapour on the first place? It’s a hard life bein a shweaty guy! Thanks for all the help Shug I hope you’re doin well.

[@shugemery]

It is fun practice all the same. Love that you can camp with your Pop.

Classic Shug! I missed ya buddy (model airplanes ain't my thing, too many taxes to afford such up here in Canada lol). Love the shock cord mod, so simple with a couple of clove hitches. You're the marlin spike maniac, another great idea for the stake outs. Looking forward to part II!

Great vid Shug as always. your Hammock trip videos have inspired me to give it a try. Im an experienced backpacker but always a ground tent sleeper. I've never tried a hammock because im very much a side sleeper and thought i couldn't sleep on my side in one. I have just bought my first Hammock and going out to use it on an overnighter this Friday. I guess your supposed to sleep at an angle to lay kinda flat. Wish me luck. Thanx again.

[@shugemery]

Yep...an angle is the way to go. I did a whole series on hammocks...kzbin.info/aero/PLB8752777861C2AA8 Carry forth and good luck.

Thanks for the camp-related vid, Shug! I was startin' to go through withdraws. Just bit the bullet and picked me up a HG Cuben Fiber tarp just in time for a backpacking trip through Joshua Tree National Forrest (got a nice hang between a couple boulders). But wouldn't ya know it; the weather was so nice, I didn't get to use it. Actually kinda bummed about that. Enjoy your trip to the undisclosed location!

[@toddtalk1775]

I worked at a bait and tackle shop as a teen and one of my duties was boiling peanuts out behind the store. We had a couple of big propane turkey fryers. Boil 'em until they were soft, turn off the heat, stir in a bunch of salt, and let them soak a while. Then you bag them suckers up and watch them fly off the counter!!! Woooooo!

[@Wintertrekker]

Ya man tarpology! Loving it, can't wait until Part 2. Just a beginner hanger myself, and big questions after a few trips are: ridge line over vs under, vs none; associated drip issues especially with tarp ridge under, etc?. I always wondered with ridge line under, if the rubbing on delicate silnylon or cuben will abrade the coating and cause it to leak? Oh the questions! :o)

[@shugemery]

I am an off the ends type. Under the tarp can cause drips depending on the angle, type of cord etc. I can happen. Never had a rubbing problem. Sil is pretty tough.

[@ScottVeirsinVA]

Same on the newbie - even though I have been on the forums and shug's videos for a year. I bought my first hammock a year ago, and have only hung it once. I need to get a tarp and net, and should then be on my way. This Shug shugity shug shug guy has great info! ;)

[@Wintertrekker]

Thanks Mr. Shug! Tarp on man, tarpitty tarparama tarpit, ya!

[@canesser1]

You know what they call a hammock in our neck of the woods Hoop? A black bear enchilada lol. I like a full Blackbird Warbonnet Supertarp in such circumstances, feel a touch more secure :) I'm a ridge line underling myself, love the clothesline but must admit haven't run into how well it will perform in prolonged rain conditions. Did perfectly well in the thunderstorm in the wee hours last September anyway. From the looks of it I'll have my opportunity this summer. Would recommend extra tie downs and stakes for the mosquitoes this summer, they're epic!?

[@EconoChallenge]

I am line under also. Use it for the clothesline.

I highly doubt it comes with anything other than stock stuff. But I'll DEFINITELY have to get me some shock cord. Thanks for the tip theya bub. I hope you have a ball on your trip. I'mma bout to leave out for the A.T. for my first time. Gonna head up to Harper's Ferry from Springer Mtn. MAN I can't WAIT! I've thoroughly enjoyed your vids brother.

Brilliant, as usual. I laughed when you said about learning from your own mistakes. Everybody says "you don't need toggles for marlin spike hitch, just find little stick". Usually it works but today I've landed twice on my bottox because makeshift toggles were to soft. :-)

[@centexrails]

Hey Shug. I was practicing with the tarp preparing for some wine and rain that was coming. I graded the effort as a fail. How about a video or two on your approach for staying dry in wind and rain specifically. If the wind comes in and it wants to blue rain at the end of your setup what's the plan? It's to late to change the hang. Thanks for all your videos. They bring knowledge and joy!

[@shugemery]

Site selection. DOORS ON TATP. Tarp pitched lower, maybe pile some limbs around the tarp, bigger tarp with doors.

[@shugemery]

I meant TARP. This is from Jacksrbetter website: www.jacksrbetter.com/a-few-words-about-tarps/

Thanks for the vid. Looking forward to the next one. I hammocked up in Minnesota last year for the first time and loved it. I used a heavy duty blue tarp, which worked but was complicated. Now I have the skeeter beater pro with the ENO Profly. My biggest question is what is the proper way to have the ridge line. Do you leave 6 inches on each end and is that enough to keep water out that is coming sideways? Every time I feel vulnerable to rain from the ends.

[@shugemery]

I will be showing that but yeah...that is about right. I seems like you would get soaked every time but it takes a real blowing storm to get you if you don't have doors. Pitch low and tight.

[@JacobZiech]

I do a lot of backpacking with friends, and I been trying to get them to hammock instead of tenting! Both have its benefits I suppose.

Cheers Shug, nicely done. If you don't want to make a tarp making vid, how about a peanut boiling one, or is it as simple as it sounds? Al

It is. Boil water with lots of salt...add raw peanuts. Boil for 5 hours or so. Have to keep adding some water as it boils off.
