    OLM with pole modifications

    Here is my own version of the modification. I have seen Marty's and they are nicer than this but function the same.

    If you hook prussiks to the pullouts and tie a guy line to the end of the pole, you can adjust the tension so you don't have to flatten out the ridgeline. I put two prussiks on the ridgeline as well to thread the poles through and then tighten them by pulling towards the tree on each side, keeps everything taught and in place.

    here is another thread that shows the 2 pole mod...pretty cool!
    I was looking at the OMW and I really like the internal pole though I wonder if they can make it like the link with 2 internal poles and I can forego the panel pulls. I do have an email into them with some questions and will have to ask once I get a reply.

    I'm pretty sure Marty's Angels can take care of that. I wish I had gone 2 pole.

    He is working on a doub. int. pole mod on his New Tarp for me. (it's gonna be So Sweet!)

    It can be done and the price isn't bad, though after some measuring today I really don't need a 11' ridgeline even so I am really considering the New Tarp 10x10 with the outside pole mod for easy work. Plus it will still come in lighter than my 9x9 currently.
