Anyone know anything about these tarps? They look bomber, but spendy.

Only 1 pound 11 ounces. Holly cow it weighs almost as much as my hammocks under quilt and tarp.
Color is real stealthy....

You may want to look at the Gear Guide tarps on Sportsman's guide. You can get them in either 9x9 or 12x12 version, white or camo, 12 tie-outs, about the same weight you are looking at and half the price.

I'm looking at the D3: 10x12, cat-cut, 19 oz and $105. I am very leery of sil-nylon tarps, as they tear easily when wet, and leak after long use (mine does, anyway). The "neo" tarp is fine, but I am looking for lighter. The 9x9 weighs 22oz, but it looks like the p.o.e. D3 should be longer lasting and better built. Granted, $105 is far more than I plan to spend.
I am really looking for anyone who has experience with these tarps. Anyone?

Oh yeah. I remember seeing that one. I had also thought about trying that one but held back because of two concerns. The price was one concern and the other concern was the shape. It is shaped like a kite and I was concern about how well it would cover the hammock. If anyone does end up buying this I would like it hear the reports on it.
Not to mention "solar orange" is the only color.
