Five Basic Principles of Going Lighter (not me... the great Cam Honan of OZ)

Hey, no offense, and buy what you want, but you've been warned.
Southerners are well familiar with the phrase "pig in a poke" and it applies here.

I look at photos for a living, but can you point out what you're seeing? BPW does have a reputation of doing really shoddy work. Someone over in r/ultralight was saying things are good now however. Who knows when this guy had it made though.
In this thread actually. Several people backing him up https://www.reddit.com/r/Ultralight/...e_from_little/

This section... edge stitching is not even, hem is not finished, lapped unevenly, and what's the little patch below the door loops??
Personally, I would suggest purchasing from one of the reliable vendors.

I will say that when I first saw it and who made it I looked at it skeptically, but I'm not necessarily seeing what you're seeing, which is fine. That patch like thing could be a BPWD tag. Who knows? I bet we could get higher resolution photos. I'll ask. It's 13 oz, so way too much weight for me, but that's a lot of Dyneema for $300.
That tarp looks interesting but if I'm going to spend a couple hundred bucks, I'd rather go with the proven quality of HG or Dutch. It's a very cool design though!
You could also do what I did. Just add these little guys to your tarp. Larks head them on.

Another vote for line lock hooks, best of both worlds
