V9 Strong Tarp - Hammock Rain Fly

Price: $89.95 Regular price:

I've always wondered why nobody has come out with a drink called V9.I'd put it on the shelf right next to V8 and be a millionaire thanks to one extra vegetable.I don't think people are ready to buy juice from Trek Light yet, so in the meantime here's a great tarp with a million-dollar name.(If you come out with the V10 Stronger Tarp now, I guess we can't blame you)NOTE: The V9 Tarp is an accessory item, a hammock is not required for use and is sold separately.

It's A Tarp!

Your tarp is a piece of camping gear in which the setup instructions are merely a guide.

There's no one-size-fits-all method to setting up your tarp and factors like the wind, physical surroundings and even personal preference will impact how you orient and set up your tarp.

Don't let that intimidate you, all that's required is a basic understanding of how to hang your tarp and you're ready to be hammock camping.

How To Setup Your Tarp
  1. Tie the included ridgeline cord (thick) from tree to tree above the hammock. You can also tie the ridgeline cord directly to your hammock's suspension instead to lower the tarp and create a more enclosed environment.
  2. Drape the tarp over the ridgeline cord. You can orient the tarp as a square or a diamond shape over the hammock (see above).
  3. Use the included tie-out line along with the grommets on the tarp to secure each corner/side by tying off to an object or using ground stakes (not included).
  4. That's it. Enjoy your hammock as the rain comes down. Don't forget a good book!

The long wait is over!!

Well, I assume the V9 Strong Tarp - Hammock Rain Fly is awesome, because EVERYTHING at Trek Light is AWESOME! I bought this as a gift for my son for his birthday, which isn't until April, so it has not seen any use yet. That said, the item seems very durable, and exceptionally well made. The price is right - why else would they all be snapped up whenever they come in stock? All in all, it seems like a very versatile, practical addition for anyone who enjoys back-country camping with their Trek Light Hammock.

Love your company, love your stuff.

Easy to use, kept the heavy dew off me on an overnight trip on the AT in Vermont. Easily repacked into it's own pouch in the morning. Much better than the tarp I had from the hardware store.

"Exactly What I Needed!"

Finally got my hands on Trek Light's tarp and I'm extremely impressed with another great product from one of my favorite companies. I've tried a number of lighter-weight tarps than this and for what they cost they're far too delicate. I need my camping equipment to be a good balance between lightweight and durable and this more than does the trick for me. Thanks again Trek Light...
