Features whats Included specs Videos FAQ We add more hammock inventory in weekly. If you make a complete selection of an out-of-stock item, checking all boxes including color, suspension etc, you should see a blue box down below the add-to-cart button that allows you to enter an email address for an email notification when that color/model is added back to inventory.  We recommend signing up for a couple different color choices to ensure faster notification.   Available in 20 denier or 30 denier SilPoly (silicone-coated Polyester). Coated with a lightweight durable silicone coating on both sides. The 20d is lighter, the 30d more durable.   Built-in Ridgeline: No need to ever run a line under the tarp for support, our ridgeseam is reinforced with polyester binding that doesn’t need to be seam sealed. It acts like a shingle to shed water off the seam. Tarps made without binding on the ridge seam can stretch as the tarp is tensioned and people often run guyline under them for support. Our ridgeseam binding adds significant strength and stretch resistance to the seam and it can never de-laminate like sonic-welded “bonded” seams can. Note: Tarp options with rings on the underside of the ridgeseam can occasionally leak at the ring, this only involves 13′ tarps which have 2 underside rings and any tarp with a custom center pole mod which has 1. We include a small tube of silicone in the event they leak, this is uncommon but does sometimes occur. If it does, simply use the included sealer to seal a 1″ wide section on the outside of the edge binding stitching directly over each ring. 11′ and 12′ tarps without a custom center pole modification should never need their ridgeseam sealed.   Utilizes heavy-duty 1″ plastic triangles for the ground corners and 1/2″ lightweight, removable stainless steel split rings for the tree tieouts.   The Superfly pairs well any of our hammock models. Hammock tarps with doors are great for cold weather use or folks who want one tarp for all conditions and seasons. The SF is our largest tarp. It has 2 full length doors at each end. The doors of the Superfly can be folded underneath when not needed,  The versatility, expansive coverage and convenient built-in doors make the Superfly a great tarp for any of our hammock models. Sewn in the USA by Warbonnet. Length: We offer all our tarp models in 11′, 12′ and 13′ lengths. This length refers to the length of the Ridge-seam. In general, the 11′ tarps are most appropriate for end gathered style hammocks like our Blackbird XLC and Eldorado hammocks which have a 111″ ridgeline length giving about 10″ of overlap at each end of the hammock which is ideal. While the 13′ versions are best suited for bridge hammocks like our Ridgerunner. The doors on any of our 13′ “Fly” series of hammock tarps with doors will fully close around the suspension triangle of the Ridgerunner.   Be sure to check out the extra options and modifications available in our Custom Tarp Builder section.

So on an 11′ end-gathered style hammock, an 11′ hammock tarp with doors will give more coverage down low than 13′ would. But on our Ridgerunner bridge hammock, there is no ridgeline and the hammock is usually hung a little flatter…so you can get a 13′ winter hammock tarp to come down for sufficient side coverage. The 13′ also allows the doors to fully shut on the Ridgerunner, the shorter 11′ tarp is also appropriate for a Ridgerunner but the apex of the RR’s suspension triangle will poke out between the doors, creating a small opening. Bumping to a 13′ eliminates that issue, but is not necessary… the opening is a narrow vertical slot that is about 3 feet beyond the ends of the hammock fabric. There is a photo of the RR suspension triangle poking through the door slot in the gallery on the Thunderfly page for reference. What’s a good lightweight tarp option? The MiniFly and ThunderFly are both good lightweight 3-season tarp options. You also can add our Underquilt Protector to the bottom of your XLC/Eldorado and turn either of these tarps into a solid winter hammock tarp. On their own, both provide good 3 season coverage. For someone looking to go minimal I would recommend the Thunderfly for a true 3 season tarp in the Rockies or Sierra/Cascades where you might actually encounter snow, freezing temps, and high wind in spring and fall, while the Minifly would be more than adequate as a 3-season hammock tarp with doors in anyplace you don’t expect lots of cold wind. The ThunderFly is simply 12″ wider so offers more wind block (which is more important the colder it is) Which tarp do you recommend? The Superfly is our best selling model because it is our “all season/all weather” winter hammock tarp model. The main reason someone might select a different model tarp would be if they want to save pack weight in the warmer months when the Superfly coverage is overkill for the conditions and weight savings is more desirable. Other than a little extra weight, there is no real downside to using the Superfly in warmer conditions. For information on choosing the right tarp for you, see our Tarps 101 page. What is the difference between 20d Silpoly and 30d Silnylon and which one do you recommend? The 30D Silnylon is slightly more durable than 20D Silpoly. In general nylon has a higher tear and tensile(breaking) strength than the same weight polyester simply because nylon is all-around stronger pound for pound than polyester is. A winter hammock tarp made of poly will stretch less (when soaked or otherwise) and it will absorb less water weight. Poly still stretches some, just not as much as nylon. The extra stretch of nylon adds to its strength though, in that it acts as a built-in shock absorber during a heavy wind gust, so with poly stretching less in that situation, in theory the nylon winter hammock tarp would have a lower wind load due to extra stretch. We’ve had excellent long term durability results from our 30d Silnylon. Ploy is said to have better UV resistance, but don’t think you can treat your winter hammock tarp any differently than before, we tested a polyester hammock tarp with doors outside for about 2 months and the fabric lost ALOT of strength from the sun exposure, so you still want to avoid things like that regardless of whether your tarp is poly or nylon. Does an 11′ tarp work with an 11′ Hammock? Our 11 foot hammocks have a ridgeline length of 112″ (the body fabric hangs in an arc) so with an 11′ (132″) tarp this gives you 10″ of tarp overlap at each end of the hammock. If the tarp has doors then those doors will be able to shut or overlap enclosing you all the way around. How far down does the tarp come? This depends on tarp width but also how high you hang it up above the hammock, hang it higher and it doesn’t come down as far. Your hammock suspension runs uphill at an angle and the tarp is longer than the hammock, so you can only pitch the winter hammock tarp so low that it contacts the hammock suspension. So the longer the tarp length the higher you have to pitch it above the ridgeline of the hammock and the more coverage you lose down low. Generally go for the 11′ Fly series tarp with any of our 10′ or 11′ end gathered models like the Blackbird, XLC and Eldorado. This will give max wind block down low near the bottom of the hammock. What is included with the tarps? All of our tarp models come with a single-ended stuff sack included.
