ahh, are you the one that posted a small review a while back with pics of it in your yard? yours is green right? and you used a stick for the rear guyout point?

i was trying to contact you desperately before i purchased to ask some questions but couldn't find any contact info. for you <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> oh well.

no, my zipper is not waterproof....... at least i don't think so and it doesn't appear that way either. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

i did try setting it up in a somewhat a-frame style and that should work good. there do seem to be alot of options for setup though.

i want to be able to put the handle up in the front too but when i tried it the zipper unzipped and then the handle therefore went through the gap, rendering the tarp as a groundcloth <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />. maybe i need to pull the zipper to the end/top to 'lock' it??? i want to be able to do this because i like the confidence of the bottom not sliding if i were to knock it in my sleep or something or if my dog were to bump it.


i too think i will cut the plastic tabs off. besides is there some certain way i should be staking it down because the easton stakes don't seem to 'match' up with the tabs anyways....... ???? they just don't seem to go together. cord loops would probably stay in place on the stake much better.
