Silnylon tho no?

Backpacking light.dk says it's okay for upto 190 cm. I'll order one and see. Actually now off bikepacking next week so not time to get before that annoyingly.

It's also annoying the wait time on a MLD is so long, or I'd order one and get someone to bring it over.

I have a SMD Deschutes Tarp. Sleep under it all the time with a Tyvek groundsheet.
It's just about possible to sleep without touching either end, but it's a real challenge. I'm 6ft nothing.
It packs down nice light and small, but after a few days I start to dream of something different.

Different as in more length?
I do side sleep and a bit figure4.

Did you ride out any good weather in this?
Thinking I want to be light so I should go the full hog and get this not lunar.
Whatever I get I'll take to Kygyzstan.
