    Exup, if we meet up at Zaleski next week, I'd like you to see the tensioner setup I put together for my HG cuben and get your thoughts. It's a system that covers tarp lines, doors, tie backs and pullouts.

    Bannerstone, ill be very excited to see it. This will be my first set up of my cuben tarp. Ill be using my classic maccat standard tarp set up (just like Tendertoes, dyna glide w/ shock cord tensioners). Once I get some cash I plan to get new line and a similar set up.

    Ps I'm figuring out which camp ill be at now. Ill post a map too tomorrow hopefully.

    that prussic on the D rings was clutch HamMike. It also inspired me to rework my entire tarp line system and I think I have a super light super KISS system. I'm going to bring my tarp into work someday this week (working 2pm-6am double shifts for 2 weeks, plenty of downtime) and make the adjustments and set'er up and see how well it does. Glad I got to see your rig

    I wanted to ask Hammike, what material did you use to make your prussics?

    Not 100% sure I'll be out but if I do I may do sat and sun night. I'd like to do that short loop. Zaleski is always great.

    a quick update. I added prussics & guyline to all the D-rings.
    used this before I switched to ladder locks on my superfly

    added line to one side of the tie outs - I'll have to take a pic to explain what I did.

    will be testing it this weekend other than in my backyard
