I am a new owner of a Tensa4. Due to health reasons I am currently resigned to car camping now. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and I'm just exploring all the possibilities of this stand.
I have used the Tensa4 indoors (Primary reason it was purchased) when traveling to relatives etc.. I find sleeping in a hammock far better than a bed due to my health issues.
I recently purchased the tarp extensions so I could use my 12' UGQ Winterdream when car camping. After dialing in the extensions I began to wonder just how water tight the tarp was going to be over the stand.
I see now that the placement of the hammock suspension is going to be critical in preventing water migrating down into the hammock. That got me wondering about water migrating down the poles of the stand as well.
I have only used the stand in fair weather conditions so far. Has anyone considered how to set up effective water breaks for the stand as well as the hammock? I can see the possibility in a real heavy rain of water running down the poles and pooling under the hammock. Am I overthinking this?
