.9oz noseeum mesh, I believe.

I did that to my last two-piece skins... then I tried one-piece, and haven't gone back.

Pockets, a là SLD, are an awesome addition.

I got mesh from Mountain goat and yes the pockets are great for storing RL.

Agreed. IF you can, have the pockets made long enough for your stakes...one less thing to grab.

I'm having a custom catch-all sack made with a pocket for stakes and my straps. Should arrive Friday...!

Where from? I saw the schill sack video (a Dutch made double ended Cuban fiber hammock sack with a steak pocket on the outside) but I've never seen it for sale.

I worked with a vendor here on a custom design. I don't know whether he wants to be inundated with requests, so let me wait until I receive it and I'll ask him. Maybe he'll add it as an optional feature.

I love watching and hearing other campers gasp in awe as I release and unveil my tarp like a magician.

That's a great idea! I'm calling Dutch now, again, always.
