    Cheapest place to buy cuben fiber?

    I'm planning on buying Cuben Fiber 0.51. Is there a better place to buy 4-6 yards than Zpacks ($26/yard)?

    That's the only place I know of. You can get it for less from CubicTech if you buy 9 yds or more.

    It's not intuitive how to buy it from CubicTech. Do you just need to email them? Do they serve individuals (not only companies)?

    I've never bought from them, but my understanding is you just contact them to place an order and they have a minimum order of 9 yds. As far as I know they sell to individuals. But don't hold me to any of that.

    Correct. You will also have to sign a non-disclosure agreement with them unless they have changed recently.

    Is that a linear yard or square yard?

    Most folks say DIY on cuben fiber tarps doesn't make sense from a "saving money" standpoint. Better to let the vendors work their magic. But there is the satisfaction of making your own gear, I guess.

    They sell per linear yard and the weight is square yard.
