    Grip Clips??

    For those of you that have used them, and used them long term? What are the drawbacks of using them on a PU coated tarp long term & short term? Anything better?
    My knife is so sharp it cut the sixth finger off my right hand! On the plus side, Inigo Montoya no longer hunts me.

    Sewing a new tab in with reinforcement I'm sure is better

    If you use balloons to hold them in place, they aren't bad. Otherwise they WILL slip not grip on sil. I have not used them on just coated nylon, but I bet they hold better than they do on sil.

    I suppose I'm going to have to order some of the grip clips now. It looks like it would be rough on the silnylon though.

    I wish you could just order a hammock, or a tarp, that was a complete package, w/o having to get accessories from 15 different places. They start getting awfully jimmy rigged.

    Superfly comes with everything, including side wall tie-outs. Brandon also said he would put them on the MJ for a few extra bucks in another thread.
