WB Superfly: Any tips for a newbie?

[JEF989]

I love my SuperFly and see all you other people do too. I guess I need to get some SnakeSkins from MountainGoat they look real good.

+1 for MountainGoat skins and Dutch bling. And for the superfly being a rocking tarp

So I seam sealed (I hope!) my pull outs last night, not the prettiest work I've ever done... but if it keeps me dry, don't much care. I also rigged up some guylines, but I'm going to hold off on leaving them on for now until I get replicate the self-tensioning guyline video posted earlier. I really liked that setup. Ordered some hardware off the HF Store for that.

Speaking of hardware... The dutch hooks and tarp flyz are awesome. I can't believe how well those worked. I expected to have at least a little trouble with them. My purchases are starting get attention so I've gotta lay low for a bit now.

The dangers of Hammock Forums lurk around every corner....Good to hear you are making progress, don't forget to share a picture or 3....

Just bought a Superfly! I somehow convinced myself that it was worth $130 to be able to shave 3 minutes off my setup time (by not having to attach doors to my Mamajamba).

Man, it never ends!

That's OK. While it may seem redundant, I still look forward to using the MJ in nice weather and have the option of taking just 2 doors like I often do. But the Superfly will come along for winter and when there's big rain in the forecast.

So...NOW I'm done.

Really?!? You actually typed that out, read it and posted it for the world to see? Good luck with that.

I have purchased my FINAL piece of outdoor gear about 243 times. You will NEVER be done.

Pics or it didn't happen... I know, but I felt the need to update this post. I'll have pics coming this weekend when I get a chance to setup all of this gear when I go camping on Friday.

Warbonnet Superfly
-- MountainGoat Tarp Sleeves
-- DutchWare Gear Tarp Flyz on the ridge line tie outs
-- (2) 12' Zing-it with a Dutch Hook attached
-- (6) 6' guylines using this users method (https://www.hammockforums.net/forum/...tarp-guy-lines)
--- two of those are meant for my center pull outs, which I'm not sure I'll be using yet.
-- (2) 12' lines for my center pulls
-- (4) 1.5'ish 1/8" shock cord for my doors. I still need to get some mitten clips or something for these though.

I needed most of the added line and shock cord for other projects. Like the zing-it, I bought a 180' spool. Used it all to complete guylines and ridgelines for my Superfly and two other tarps. Worked out great.

LOL yeah look at some of my previous threads. I've said it at least a dozen times.

Just received my SF today! Can't wait to get home and finish it up with some Tarp Flyz, cordage and shockcord.
