    Best Tarp on Amazon?

    So because of a return, I have like $125 on my Amazon account. I might buy something I really don't need, like a tarp, with that money.

    What's your pick for the single greatest tarp on Amazon? Looking for a hex shape but open to all suggestions .

    I've been eyeing the hennessy hex, and the hennessy silnylon tarp, as well as a clark vertex tarp.

    Every day is a good day.

    I've heard good things about the DD 3mX3m tarp
    and at appx $69.
    There's also a variety from Aquaquest(?).

    Hennessy Hex. The Clark Vertex is hard to get taut. Don't know much about Hennessy silnylon.

    3mx3m is a little small. Would be less than 10ft ridgeline. My current tarp has an 11'10" ridgeline, I can't imagine being 2ft shorter providing the coverage I need.

    Thanks for the input Silvrsurfr, I hadn't heard much about Clark's tarps. I know the hennessy hex is well liked, not the silnylon one is twice the price but 10oz lighter.

    Every day is a good day.

    I will stand by the hennessy hex, used it for 4 years. I have been in some crazy weather and this tarp has pulled its weight. I have a clark tx 270 with the vertex tarp and have never used it . I trust my hennessy. For the money and the quality you can't go wrong.

    Best Tarp on Amazon?

    Hennessey Hex Fly gets my vote. I was in a pretty rough storm this weekend and it kept me and my gear dry. I got a little splatter on my head but the wind was really blowing hard from that direction and I didn't have the tarp pitched down as low as I could have. Even then, I only got a little mist in the midst of a serious thunderstorm.

    DD also do 4x3m and 4x4m tarps, we rate them highly here in the U.K.
