Excellent video, I totally agree with everything you said abut this tarp, I just love mine. I've only seen one bad review on UA-cam, and I think the guy got a lemon. He should have sent it back and they would have accommodated him no problem, great company!!
I like the old-school appeal of an oilskin tarp, but they're completely impractical outside of motorbike or car camping. They weigh many, many times more than a 3x3m DD Hammocks tarp, and the only benefit is their fire/spark resistance.
I pretty much agree with you, I would also add that the sturdy pitch of the oil skin tarp outshines my DD tarp, and the oilskin tarp does much better in high winds. But it's not very impractical if you plan to cover large distances on foot.
@@JayBirdTreks I use my 4x4 DD tarp to make an enclosed shelter with floor and door and it’s a great size for that. Also, I have and love my Bushcraft Spain 2.5 x 2.5 meter oilskin tarp. As a bush crafter I don’t plan on hiking massive distances. The weight of my gear is important but it’s not critical. If I knew that I was going to have to deal with very high winds and a lot of rain then the oil skin tarp is definitely the one I’d find a way to carry.
My Dd tarp ripped of in moderate Wind 💨 After three days of use, so That would Never happened to the oil Skin tarp! DD hammocks tarp are Not Made for sunlight they said to me, so Dd hammocks plays Not Even in the Same league in which the high quality tarp From Bushcraft spain plays.
Cool tarp i Love it!❤

Thanks for the honest review! And very nice examples, specially in such a beautiful forest
My pleasure!, thanks for the kind comment
I like this! The tarp tent is awesome! I'm gonna have to try it!
You should! It's a good one!
Very nice Jay😎
Thanks Herb 👍
Got mine also. Very good product.
They certainly are
Looking good!👍 I little too big for my taste but there is no way I can make that tarp tent config with my 2x2!
What's your preferred configuration with the 2x2?

@@JayBirdTreks Additionally, 3x3m is not much to work with to make enclosed shelters, hence why I bought the 4x4m from DD Hammocks.
Wow, a 4x4 must have standing head room or something along those lines. I wouldn't know what to do with so much space with just one person's needs.
