    Tarping a Amok Draumr with a Tensa4 Stand

    Hi y'all. I have an Amok Draumr 5.0 and a Tensa4 stand on the way and am trying to figure out the best size and style of tarp for this combination. I didn't order the tarp extensions with my stand, but I'm starting to realize I may need to order them too. I've watched every Shug video with both the stand and the hammock, I'm hoping he'll have some good advice here. I'll be using this setup for motorcycle camping, so weight isn't an issue for me.

    Thank you all for being genuinely helpful here. Posting on most other groups and forums seems to bring out the trolls, I haven't seen that here. You guys rock. Double thanks to Shug for all of his videos and replies.

    Shug -- I think the Tensa4 has two longer four section poles (foot end) and two shorter three section poles (head end). In using the Tensa4 with the Amok Draumr, do you want a symetrical set up with the Tensa ridgeline level?

    It is pretty much all the same length on the poles. I just drew it in tighter with Tensa4 ridgeline.

    With a 12-foot tarp you could roll the bike underneath as a wind break and have some protection for the bike itself. REI has some decent 12-foot tarps in a muted silver/gray coloring. 75 Denier Polyester will not droop like silnylon or any nylon tarp when wetted. Room for a stool and camp table as well.

    I like the way you think! I ended up ordering a 12' Gold Armour. It's huge! I also have the extensions on the way from Tensa. Still waiting for my Amok to ship.

    BTW, that link is for tire deflators.
