door ties for superfly

Have a superfly in route from Brandon, wondering what everyone is using for holding the doors out of the way when not in use? While in use?

someone posted recently about using a twist tie sort of thing he got from big lots. can't find the post right now.

I typically use guyline & tie it on the panel pull outs

i just use s biners and shock cord to attach the flaps to the pullouts

Shockcord and mittenhooks to close on a cold windy night.
Shockcord to make it easier to step over.

The ?-shape plastic hooks ( that socks and other items have for hanging in store )
to easily hook and unhook out of the way, when going in-and-out.

Love my SuperFly in the winter.

My side pull lines do double purpose for door tie backs, I use the little size 0 nylon nite-ize sbiners to make my quick connections. Otherwise I don't keep any lines on my doors because I tie them out using the extra line from my corner tie outs. Kind of an unorthodox way to setup but it seems to work pretty well.

So you "store" you doors on the outside of the tarp when not is use?

Yep, if it's windy I sometimes pull them on the inside to minimize flapping. I figure, you never set with your side pulls out and tie your doors back at the same time so it made sense to have my lines doing dual purpose.

I use Shockcord and cordlock for adjustability on my superfly

On each side I pull the corners in and connect to one another. I ised to have shock cord and plactic hooks on my door corners and I would just connect them with a large rubber band. I know have dynaglide tieouts with prussics. They still get connected to one another just not with a rubber band. If you bring them to the inside they wont catch wind.
