Eastern Ridge Camping Hammock Hex Tarp - Waterproof Windproof Lightweight Durable Rainfly Shelter (Forest Green, Med 10'5 Ridgeline)

I was excited to find the hex tarp for the price - with stakes and quality cordage!Pros: Good size, cut, and seam stitching. Dyneema ridgeline attachments worked well (if a bit short), and the paracord tie-downs are a good length and hold a taut-line hitch well. Three-sided aluminum tent stakes dug fine into the MO soil. Fair weight for the size. Packs up tightly, fits well in its sack with the cords and stakes. Good coverage for the two hammocks I used it with, and solid protection from rain and moderate winds. Customer service seems solid - they offered to send a return label and replace mine when the strap tore (see below) but I had already repaired by resewing with fishing line.Cons: Came stained with slight yellowish streaks (see 2 photos). Possible flaw in the strap stitching - the ridgeline connection tore with gusty Ozarks summer thunderstorm winds when hung by a lake. Easily repairable. Could have additional grommets or tie spots for other uses or odd hangs.Ultimately, this is a solid starter or second hammock tarp. I bought a second one.

My favorite hammock tarp ripped during a test, prepping for a long hike and I had to make a last minute purchase of this tarp. Hadn't seen this brand before but the weight was good and the price was right. Had to roll the dice! Bought the MEDIUM size. Very impressed that it came with some Dyneema ridgeline cord and lightweight guylines. Overall the tarp performed very well on my hike, easy to get taught with its shape and size. Excellent coverage of my 10' hammock. The tie outs are very durable and well designed. It's no cuben fiber tarp but the weight is fantastic for a poly tarp coming in on my scale at 600 grams or 21 oz. for tarp, bag, stakes, and all the lines. It only rained lightly for about an hour on my trip so I haven't had it in a downpour but I expect it would perform well based on my observations of how well its made and the way it pitches. Highly recommend this tarp for a hammocker!

I'm not sure it would keep sideways wind or rain from hitting me. But it kept straight down rain and dropped branches from hurting me. Perhaps I set it up wrong but... I think a second tarp for the sides is necessary. I'd like my Hammock more than a foot off the ground... Would a member of this company please get back to me with some proper ideas for setting it up? How do I insure my head and feet and protected?

Feels pretty high quality, my buddy spent twice this much for a product of similar quality. Great product for the price.

Looks good upon first look. High quality material for the tarp and stakes. The cordage seems alright, although i will replace those with real paracord for piece of mind. Would buy again.

Material is in between tent and tarp. A little thicker than tent, a little thinner than tarps. Good coverage and accessories.

I bought this and the ENO version. What I liked about this one is that it was more cost effective and came with tentstakes, whereas the ENO was more expensive and didn't have stakes with it. All in all worth the money.

It's an ok tarp. A bit heavy, but it does the job.
