Utter and actual genius! I did a first outing with my dd 3x3 tarp last Sunday, had the same prob of not having a tree in the right place for me to tie it out, I had to use my staff in the end to get the right angle, didnt enter my head to make a tie out point between the inconveniently placed trees, You have won tarp tip of the week chap, much and many thanks!
Thanks, after I put a bit of cordage between the two trees I realised the cord I have on the corner would of worked but my brain either goes on over rive or I can't get it into gear lol as long as what we do works for us it's all good :) we all get there in the end lol
Awesome setup! I was thinking of getting this for amok Draumr and I’m convinced since it is so king and wide, as needed. I was going with the Onewind tarp but it was not wide enough from what I could tell. You might wanting check out how it’s made and configured - has four tie outs in the middle of the A-Frame walls so you can pull the sides out, helping with the wind and giving you a lot more room. I’ll be trying to get in touch with DD to seeing they can ship mine custom made with those four tie outw, otherwise I’ll have to do it myself
It does not have the tie out on the side for A frame walls but you can buy or make tarp tie outs.i am glad I did not get the 3x3 as this has fantastic space as an A frame in bad weather. I used this in a group camp with a folding bed, table and chair and in a heavy snow storm with 2 people and we had loads of space. Have a look at my camp Bob snow video
I have just ordered a 3.5 x 3.5 and a hammock. Im going to start wild camping in the winter i also have a tent so best of both. Its also part of my prepping for a SHTF situation so its all win win really.
Winter is the best season for all camps :) no bugs and a reason to have a fire :) the 3..5 is a great size tarp :) you will get plenty of use with it even in conjunction with the tent :) I normally use a tarp with my 9x9 tent for shade or protection from the wind and rain
Nice sized tarp for that bit of extra room,i really liked the way you set it up enclosed, perfect for winter hammock set up,is there pull out points in the middle of the tarp ?,great easy to understand video 👍
Bought one of these DD tarp I now use it as a car cover to keep the bird shit off woke up each morning piss wet through due to the condensation accumulating on the inside. I have the one issued to the British army and no problem with condensation DD tarps are cheap crap
The 3m x 3m should be fine. If you want more room the 3x4 or the 4x4 is great. If you sleep low down or have the tarp close to you a British army basha will do but this 4x4 is massive and you could fit an 8 man tent under it easy :)

thanks and yes there are 3 pull outs on the back amd one is in the center
That multi-cam pattern blends in really well, and you’ve certainly got options with it being a 4x4 :) nice one Sly
It is great. The millions of different configurations you can do with a bigger tarp is fantastic. Well worth the extra room it takes up in the bag
great vid, helped a lot
Thank you, brilliant video.
wow, thanks, i do not get a ot of views or comments these days.
thank you

You better try a $500 tent for 1, and see how you go

I am 6"3 I really don't know how to figure out what tarp size is most convenient for me
*flabbergasted*.
