    best snake skins for Warbonnet Superfly tarp

    Just got my Superfly in the mail. I would like to go the snakeskin route for quick takedown and deploy. What is the consensus between HG Cuben Sleeves or Hennessy Snakeskins XL for the Superfly? Any other skin solutions?

    Thanks for your help...this will be the first time I've used a snakeskin.

    I have the ones from Wilderness Logics on mine http://wildernesslogics.com/Tarp-Skin-Tarp-skin.htm and there is plenty of room in it.

    I just made myself a single piece skin for my tarp, and it's far easier than the two piece. It almost makes me wonder why two piece skins are even a thing.

    I love my one piece cuben skins from HG. Tons of room and less fiddle factor. Slide on/ slide off. Easy peasy.

    No switching sides to deploy/pack, no air bubble in the middle. It's far easier and faster.
