Just received a shipping notice for my standard cuben fiber tarp with doors today! Yay!!! For those wondering I placed the order on June 7th, so it was about 6 1/2 weeks. Now I'll be checking for boxes everyday!!

Note: when you pick the box up, it will feel like they forgot to put the tarp inside.

The mailman told me the box feels empty.

Received my tarp today!!! Had a little scare when I thought my dog was going to chase the mail lady away. I was in the backyard and heard barking out front, I quickly ran around thinking bad dog, bad dog, but when I got there she was out petting him with box in hand! I just finished up making all the rigging lines and outfitting it with Dutch bling. My old Mamajamba weighed in at 16oz. with all lines and hardwear, my new tarp weighed in at 11.4oz with all lines and hardwear. Doesn't seem like much of a weight savings for the cost but....my new standard cuben fiber is 12' long and has doors plus its camo which is just a tad heavier than the regular. So I am getting much better coverage for less weight. I'm hoping to get out tomorrow and set it up to see how it looks!
