VIDEO: How To Rig A Tarp With Dutch Bling

[Sethrotull]

Thanks for the note, much appreciated. Flyz and tarpworms are really easy and convenient, @Dutch not so much Make sure you post a pic of your set up once the package arrives (wait a minute, this post is 24hrs old - Dutch probably already has it at your house!) - cheers.

That's funny. I placed an order(on a Friday) then emailed on Monday to see about adding a few things. Dutch emailed me back saying my order had already shipped (I got it a few hours later).

Yesterday I was going through my junk email and found my shipping notice from Dutchware. It was sent out within the hour I ordered on Friday!

Thanks for the earlier response 12trysomething! that looks like a great way to rig the doors, I will have to give that a try.

I am impatiently counting down the hours until my Dutchware order arrives, and I am trying to decide on a few things. First and foremost are my guy lines, I want to make two sets, one for rigging low and one for rigging high. For the low lines I think I will make either short whoopies out of 1.75 Lashit spliced on to the tarp worms, or just splice a short length on to the stake and run it back through the worm and finish with a half turn. The high lines will be six to eight feet of Lashit stand alone, or spliced to stakes.
I will definitely be attaching my Fleaz to the split rings on my SF, then run twelve feet or so of Zingit as my rl's. Apparently, the SF hangs better without a CRL and I have yet to experience my tarp hung this way.
At any rate, the options are endless, I am just so excited!!

All right, if anyone has some suggestions that I may try feel free to chime in.
Cheers, and happy hanging!

I have my head end rigged with shorter length lines as I only pitch that end down low with the doors closed. On the foot end I have 8' lines and typically have them up in porch mode. As you said, the options are endless, what did you end up with?

I broke out of a little cabin fever funk and rigged up my superfly yesterday. Tarp flyz on zing it on each ridge line tieout. Then shock cord loops and fleaz on the corners. I tied my zing it guy lines to the stakes so they stay together and will work great with the fleaz. Some more shock cord lengths and plastic hooks from dutch on the doors to attach to the corner lines to finish everything off. Thanks for all the great ideas!

I also got my tarp rigged up. Flyz on the ends and Tarpworms on the sides. All permanently attached to the tarp. The last thing I still think I need to make setup a breeze (and perhaps more importantly tear down) are some snakeskins. But with the dutchware, setup takes about a quarter of the time as it would without it. No pictures yet, but I'll put some up at some point!

@ 12trysomething, I actually filmed my night out and have finished editing. Later today I will try to embed it in this thread.
