First I am brand new to hammocks. I ordered a Mamajamba tarp and it came in today. It's hard to believe this thing is supposed to be so tough as light and thin as it is but I have never felt the Sylnylon material before. Question is do I need to do anything to it before using? Is there something that I should treat it with or is it waterproof already? How often should I treat it and with what? Is it safe to stretch it tight to keep it from blowing away when it gets windy? I know I could email Brandon for answers but I'd rather not pull him away from his work for questions like this when I'm sure people here can answer them for me. I'm really liking this tarp though, love the color, weight and craftsmanship. After getting this I may have to try his Traveler hammock next.
I am hoping to set it up with my hammock this evening since it's thundering and getting ready to storm, really looking forward to trying it.
Thanks for your time.
