No poles with DD Tarps.

I use These.

No idea how they compare with other makes and models, as these are the only ones I've bought/used, but as they are adjustable (telescopic) from 1.14m to 2.13m, and despite regular use, have neither broken nor bent any of them, I'd say they were more than good enough for me! :-)


PS:
They are actually black, not the shiny silver depicted in the link.

we've been tin tent campers for a few years now but we were wobbly wall campers for a few years before that.

this



was our last tent after some of the seams sprang some pretty serious leaks 2 days into a 2 week trip.

the tarp was bought at a local diy store in Looe, price £4.99, didn't look very pretty but it did keep the rain out for the rest of the trip

no tin tent outings booked as yet ,just another cruise in Sept' booked so far
