It's been a little while since I have been active on this site and I'm trying to get caught up on all the new goodies. Last I checked Spinn UL was the latest greatest but seems to have been eclipsed by cuben. Is spinn inferior to cuben or is there another driving factor for the big shift. I can't even seem to find any of the venders that still sell spinn tarps.
Any way to get to the point I would like a new tarp. My chinook is great for car camping but I would like something more pack friendly in the future. The price of cuben is a little restrictive and the weight of silnylon doesn't make me want to jump for the minimal gains over my current tarp. I camp in the warm sunny south so door seem excessive to me but with my new hammock (WL lite owl) I will still need a long ridgeline to keep it dry but i would like to try out a hex or possibly a diamond shape. Do you have any recommendations for me or should I just save up for a cuben tarp down the road?
