 New for 2008 Season (but just a bit late arriving!) the new backpackinglight.co.uk Duo Tarp.
Based on the successful features of our Micro Tarp and Solo Tarps, we have upgraded the materials used in the fabrication of this range and added something larger for two people, or one person wanting 'loads' of room.
Measuring 240cm x 290cm (10' x 8' approx) with 16 perimeter tabs and 9 lifter tabs, this tarp will give you as many pitching options you could ever want. Making it ultimately flexible for backpackers, kayakers, hammocks users, cyclists, in anyone needing a quality rainproof product for low weight.
Weight of tarp 572g. Not the lightest tarp of it's kind, but the material used (67gm2 1500mm hydrostatic head silicon impregnated ripstop nylon) is the same as high quality lightweight tents currently on the UK market (same manufacturer). This product is designed to give you years of practical and reliable service in most conditions.
All lifter tabs and material joins are seam sealed inside the material and suitably reinforced to allow tension to be placed at all angles.
Perfect for easy and swift creation of the A-Frame, Lean-To, Flying-V and Cave configuration (and anything else you can think of!), for any outdoor activity.
Plus of course every tarp we sell, arrives with a free copy of The Tarp Video on CD-Rom (Mac and PC) which explains in video form, how to tie all the knots you need to know, how to hank cordage and erect your first tarp in the 3 main configurations. As pitching a tarp may be new to your outdoor experience, we suggest you take your time practicing with the various configurations in your back garden before you head out into the wilds!
Using a tarp with a bivvy bag is a great way to see more of the outdoors and feel 'part' of your environment. These tarps are designed to support the lightweight backpacker and bivvy user. Of course there's many ways they can be used, including extending the vestibule area of a tent, as a windbreak on the beach or a 'hide' for photographers.
