  • Cord loops at each tie-out take the wear so the ties don't.
  • Pairs well with a bivy.
  • 20D option made from recycled polyester.

Tie-out layout

The tarp has 17 tie-outs across the ridge, perimeter, and panels. One panel tie-out sits centered within each side of the tarp's body; these help resist wind loading and let you open up more space underneath.

Note: two of the ridge tie-outs/hang loops sit at different distances from each end. This lets you use either end as the head-end. Some inners pitch better when the head apex clips further inward than the foot apex, or vice versa. It also gives you more flexibility for an improvised beak: when you use a tie-out as the new ridge endpoint, one distance may work better than the other for a given site.

Tie-out design

Each tie-out uses a cord loop rather than direct attachment. The loops take the wear from staking and guying, and when they eventually show signs of use, they're user replaceable. All tie-outs are reflective, making them easy to spot when you're setting up or moving around camp in the dark. Ridge tie-outs include hang loops for suspending an inner (bivy or net tent), and you can also clip to any perimeter tie-out loop.


Notes:

  • The ridgeline and panel tie-outs need to be seam sealed before use, per these instructions (or use our seam sealing service).
  • Many of the pictures show the tarp in a gray color which is no longer available.
  • Color of the gridstop reinforcements may vary from what's shown.

Made in the USA from imported fabric.

Great quality
Color: Four colors, Size: 5cm (ball only)
I was very surprised that these are as good as the chuck it balls. I have a super chewer and he’s tears balls up except for chuck its and he can’t tear these up.

Awesome price for quality balls
Color: Four colors, Size: 5cm (ball only)
These balls are super bouncy and durable. My dog loves them and for the price these are totally worth it! I think they are as durable as nerf balls and equal in size, and much cheaper!

Rope comes out at the slightest force. Pointless tug toy!
Color: Four colors, Size: 6cm (with rope)
If your dog pulls on these (and why wouldn’t he?), the rope immediately comes out. Turns out they just fuse the ends of the nylon rope together, which is no match for a dog playing tug. Any dog, any level of pulling will dismantle these. We’ve managed to reinsert the rope to a couple of these and KNOT it, which gives you a shorter rope but a toy that can withstand some play. But if I had wanted a DIY toy, I’d have used the balls and rope I already own.
