    Talking VIDEO: HG Four Season Cuben Fiber Tarp ... a first look

    Careful management of my slush fund resulted in enough PayPal money to order my first Cuben Fiber Tarp ... and where else would I order it from but Adam and Jenny at HammockGear.com

    This is a little of my typical foolishness, a visit or two from The Crow (still stressing over the Phoenix vs the Crow's Nest) ... and a comparison to my ... up to now ... goto tarp combination ... the Warbonnet Superfly!

    Ah shucks pal thank ya. Yeah just like you told me when I was getting ready to order ... it is a big difference but also like you said ... it's mighty nice watching things through the tarp. Can't wait to experience a moon lit night through the Cuben!

    Ha! Thanks for the kind words ... just remember in some parts of the world, enjoying my brand of humor can get you committed!

    Thumbs up

    Custom Cuben Skins arrived last night ... actually have them on the tarp now and it still stuffs in the original stuff sack ... go figure.

    The skins are 3.5"x 6'-6"x 7" (slightly under .5 oz each) ... so when put on the tarp it still compresses. I thought I might have to make some holes in it to allow air to escape easily but that's proving to not be the case right now.

    OF COURSE they are really well made ... and for now a couple pictures and more when I can get some actual in the woods time with the set up!

    Sir, you are bad for my wallet but great for entertainment and information.

    That tarp is a thing of beauty and if I weren't buying a new bike I'd very seriously consider a cuben from Adam and Jenny.

    Outstanding Fidel impression.

    Enjoy the elevation

    Don't feel bad I drooled all over TZBrown's & Shug's tarps before I started my slush fund!

    Thanks for watching!
