Haven't seen that watch since school! 30 years ago 🤣. Excellent choice of timepiece

Wish I'd seen this at the time. What a cheerful change from what we were seeing most (at the time).

I've only used my DD 3×3 on short an long trips. I honestly loves it as long as you've got a decent sleeping system you should be fine. I was caught in 2 days of rain with the tarp tent set up and was bone dry. Great video thanks new sub 🤙🏕

The rectangular tarp is perfect for parking my lowered pickup under and sleeping in the bed 🫶🌅👍

Great Job...Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.Thanks for your Videos,a Greeting 🎅✌❤

I still use those black guylines that came with it for several things. I have bowline loops on the ends. Bowline on one end and the loop & sliding buckle on the other end. The bowline loops work without even having to use toggles along with the tarp webbing loops. I also never have to untie those guyline bowline knots.

Solid effort, I will give this a go this week (DD 3x3 MC)

Nice watch!

Gracias por compartir...buen video. Saludos desde Madrid.

Nice!!

Nice pace!

Great challenge. My DD 3x3 is my go to piece of kit. I even take it when I use a tent . Never let me down yet

I'm sure you know this already but... Tarp down on the ground just larger than your tent footprint, leaf litter on top, tent on top of that. Good insulation and protects tent floor as well as making you a wee mattress effect.

Or depending on yer bike, run the tarp over/off that as an extra fly for the tent, usual sinking sidestand rules apply ofc :-p

​@@Occupuyourspine Why dont you pull the side flaps forward for an igloo front ???? My 4x4 shadow turns up monday NZ im going to bring side flaps forward . The Andorach set up if you pull both sides in more to centre the top beck could be lowered more like a door 👍

I've tried to use other tarps, I always wind up coming back to the flexibility, space, ease of use and familiarity of my DD-3x3. It just does everything I need. I'll invest in a down sleeping bag in order to have space in my ruck for my DD-3x3.

great effort , just searching for tarp tents and this was by far the easiest to follow!! I got the 4x4 though so I reckon it`ll take a bit of practice.....and a longer pole?

Hi Guys, maybe stupid questions, but I'm thinking about buying ground sheet for the tent setup. Does someone know what is the area in square meters once tent setup is completed?

Aberdeen forestry big up

Starts stopwatch... Pulls plaid over head. Stops stopwatch.

lol I have the same watches they are ultimate.

I need to buy this tent so to get it

Does setup work with a rectangular tarp like the issue basha? Or only square tarps?

Any reason why you never see this done with a 3.5 x 3.5 just curious because i have a 11ft paddle board i also use as my sleeping pad

Great idea! Not sure about Cart Wheels though! Lol

Can a bivi over just 7 feet length wise fit under that?.

Hi fandabi!

as a rule of thumb, how long has the stick/pole to be for a 3x3m tarp?

@ddhammocks2418

Hi Johannes, thank you for your question! We recommend using our DD Tarp Pole 1.8m with this tarp model. It's adjustable from 0.6m up to 1.8m so can be used in many set-ups and adjusted as needed. I hope this helps! Best, Caroline - DD Hammocks

How about the length of walking pole you extended?

@scabbardjakeman1270

3 жыл бұрын

Most trekking poles extend to 135cm. Some extend to 145cm. The 135cm pole is just sufficient, but the 145cm pole would be better (although they're hard to obtain).

Do you think that setup would work with the DD XL Tarp?

@ddhammocks2418

4 жыл бұрын

Hi Darren, the set-up works with the Tarp XL, it will just have a longer "tail" if that makes sense. So, if you use one of the 3m sides for the opening then it will work - some people use an additional Hiking Pole in the back half of the shelter to prop up the lengthened roof some more.

If you haven't already on this, search DD XL tarp tent here. It folds back on itself to create a ground sheet too. Really tidy set up, again only a matter of minutes to do 👍 *edit (not my channel btw) kzread.info/dash/bejne/gJWHxqZ9cZSWdaw.html

Hi! You can use a mesh inner with this, but there isn't one designed specifically for it. However, when doing this the tarp won't fully close around the tent, just to keep this in mind. I hope this helps! Best, Caroline - DD Hammocks

Do you get wet and covered in bugs woth this sort of set up?

@ddhammocks2418

Thank you for your question. Not necessarily - it does depend on ground and environment conditions. Of course in the case of wet ground we would recommend using a groundsheet of some kind (perhaps integrated into the set-up itself!) and for insect protection, one of our SuperLight Mesh Tents for example would be a good idea. This is a good set-up for insect-free conditions though, and depending on the placement of your tarp you can stay very well sheltered :)

You could be much faster, if this is your favourite setup, like mine. By keeping your strings tied, e.g., it weighs nothing more. This setup is ok for three persons. Within the three minutes, you could use your second stick to raise the back side - if there were more than you.
