Tarp Ridgeline and Guy lines: made with 1.75mm Lash-It or Zing – buy on the 180′ spool

  1. 40′-50 for continuous ridgeline
  2. 10′ for each of (4) to (6) tarp edge tieouts
  3. Titanium Dutch Hook – (1 for ridgeline primary end)
    • Quickly wrap first end of ridgeline around tree and clip Dutch Hook to the rope
  4. Titanium Wasp – [hardware only] – (1 for ridgeline secondary end)
    • Quickly tie off second end of ridgeline, tight. Easily adjust if needed.
  5. Nama Claw – (2 for ridgeline-to-tarp connections)
    • Tarp hangs off these underneath continuous ridgeline
    • Quickly adjust / reposition tarp on ridgeline. So so so easy to adjust.
  6. Plastic Line Lock Light [15mm] – (1 per tarp guy line / tie out line, minus 2 [as you don’t need any for the 2 connections to the ridgeline])
    • Quick and easy adjustment of line tension
    • Not optional. Must-have.
    • Can pull a grosgrain tarp loop right thru the Line Lock and larkshead, or can add a small continuous loop made of Zing-It if the tarp has D-rings or loops that are too short.
  7. Fleastake – (1 per tarp guy line / tie out line)
    • If you use a regular stake, you can pound it where you want it, then tie a slip knot, and then tighten the line at the Line Lock on the tarp side.
    • Using a Fleastake makes it easier to adjust the line at the stake side, and perhaps a little quicker?
  8. NAMA Claw Tarp Connector

Tarp Parts

  1. BONDED ULTRALIGHT XENON HEX TARP
  2. Snake Skin / Tarp Sleeve
    • Gives freedom to the “put tarp up or not” question – put the tarp up on the tree without unfurling it.
    • I prefer the continuous 1-piece.
