DD Superlight Tarp 510g Ultralight Camping Tarp for Hammock and Backpacking

The DD Hammocks Superlight Tarp weighs only 510g and packs to half the size of the standard 3x3 tarp, making it the lightest option in the DD tarp range. This 2.9m x 3m ultralight tarp provides coverage for solo hammock camping and backpacking. Made from 20D ripstop nylon with silicone coating and 3000mm waterproof rating. Available in Olive Green, Coyote Brown, or Sunset Orange.

IMPORTANT: This tarp does NOT include a ridgeline. Purchase ridgelines separately from our tarp suspension accessories collection.


DD Superlight Tarp Weight 510g Half the Weight of Standard 3x3

The Superlight Tarp weighs 510g compared to 790g for the standard 3x3 tarp, a 280g weight saving that makes a significant difference on long-distance hikes and ultralight backpacking trips. The packed size is approximately 20cm x 15cm, half the volume of the standard 3x3, fitting easily in ultralight backpacks without taking up valuable pack space.

The 20D ripstop nylon construction with silicone coating provides the weight savings while maintaining 3000mm waterproof protection. The lighter fabric packs down smaller and is less prone to folding damage over time compared to heavier polyester tarps, making it better suited for regular packing and unpacking on extended trips.


DD Superlight Tarp Drew's Personal Favorite from Almost a Decade of Testing

Wylies Outdoor World's owner Drew has personally tested every DD Hammocks product over almost a decade, using them 4 nights a week in the best and worst weather the UK has to offer. The DD Superlight Tarp is Drew's personal favorite from the entire DD tarp range because the packed size and weight make it practical for extended trips where every gram matters.

Many of the product images shown are from Drew's own adventures using the Superlight Tarp in UK conditions. This extensive real-world testing provides confidence that the tarp performs reliably despite its ultralight construction. The weight savings allow for longer trips without compromising weather protection, making it the go-to choice for serious ultralight backpacking.


DD Superlight Tarp Size 2.9m x 3m for Solo Hammock Camping

The 2.9m x 3m size provides coverage for one person and gear in hammock camping setups. The slightly smaller dimensions compared to the 3x3 (which measures 3m x 3m) contribute to the weight savings while still providing adequate coverage for solo use. When set up as a diamond or A-frame over a hammock, the Superlight Tarp keeps rain off with minimal excess material.

For solo backpacking where you want the lightest possible setup, the Superlight Tarp provides the right balance between coverage and weight. Taller users or those carrying extensive gear may prefer the DD Superlight Tarp XL which offers additional coverage while maintaining ultralight construction.


DD Superlight Tarp 20D Ripstop Nylon Lighter and Packs Smaller

The 20D ripstop nylon fabric provides significant weight savings compared to the 190T polyester used in standard tarps. The ripstop construction prevents small tears from spreading, important for ultralight fabrics. The silicone coating provides 3000mm waterproof protection while remaining lighter than PU coatings used on standard tarps.

The 20D fabric packs down to a smaller size than heavier polyester tarps, taking up less space in your pack. The fabric is also less prone to folding damage over time compared to polyester, making it better suited for regular packing and unpacking on extended trips. The lighter fabric requires more care to avoid punctures from sharp rocks and sticks, so clear your camping area thoroughly before setup.


DD Superlight Tarp 19 Attachment Points for Versatile Setups

The 19 reinforced attachment points provide the same setup versatility as heavier DD tarps. The attachment points use reinforced fabric loops that handle the stress of guy lines and stakes without tearing. These points enable A-frame, diamond, lean-to, and other configurations suited for different weather conditions and terrain.

The attachment points are positioned identically to the standard 3x3 tarp, so setup techniques and configurations transfer directly between the two tarps. This makes it easy to switch between the Superlight for weight-conscious trips and the standard 3x3 when you prefer heavier fabric.


DD Superlight Tarp Available in Three Colour Options

Olive Green provides natural colour that blends into UK woodland environments. Coyote Brown works well in open moorland and varied terrain. Sunset Orange provides high visibility for safety and emergency signaling, useful when camping in areas where visibility matters or for group trips where you need to locate your shelter quickly.

When to Choose DD Superlight Tarp Over Standard Tarps

Choose the Superlight Tarp when pack weight and volume matter more than maximum coverage. The 510g weight and compact pack size make it the right choice for long-distance hiking, thru-hiking, bikepacking, and ultralight backpacking where every gram affects your performance and comfort over multiple days.

Choose the Superlight Tarp when you prioritize low weight for solo camping. The weight savings of 280g compared to the standard 3x3 adds up significantly when combined with other ultralight gear choices.

Choose the DD Superlight Tarp XL if you need additional coverage while maintaining ultralight construction. Choose the standard 3x3 if you prefer heavier polyester fabric, or the 3.5 x 3.5 or 4x4 for more coverage.


DD Superlight Tarp Complementary Ultralight Equipment

Pair this tarp with ultralight hammock suspension accessories like DD Superlight Amsteel Rope for ridgelines. Use DD Superlight Pegs for staking out the tarp in softer ground. For complete ultralight hammock camping setups, combine with ultralight hammocks and hammock quilts.


DD Superlight Tarp Limitations to Consider

The 20D ripstop nylon fabric requires more care to avoid punctures from sharp rocks, sticks, and rough ground compared to heavier polyester tarps. Clear your camping area thoroughly before setup and use a groundsheet for ground dwelling configurations to protect the fabric from sharp objects.

The 2.9m x 3m size provides adequate coverage for solo camping but feels tight compared to the 3x3 or larger tarps. Taller users or those carrying extensive gear may find the coverage insufficient. The Superlight Tarp does not include pegs or guy lines, so you must purchase these separately, adding to the total system weight.

The silicone coating can be slippery when wet, making the tarp harder to handle during setup in rain compared to PU-coated tarps. The lighter fabric also flaps more in wind, creating more noise than heavier tarps.


DD Superlight Tarp Care and Maintenance

Handle the tarp carefully during setup and takedown to avoid snagging the 20D fabric on sharp objects. Clear your camping area of rocks, sticks, and anything that could puncture the fabric. Use a groundsheet when setting up ground dwelling configurations to protect the underside from abrasion.

Allow the tarp to dry completely before packing for long-term storage. The silicone coating resists mildew better than PU coatings, but moisture can still cause problems if stored wet. Store the tarp loosely in its stuff sack rather than compressed tightly for extended periods.

Inspect the tarp regularly for small tears or punctures. Repair damage promptly using silicone-based repair tape or patches designed for silicone-coated fabrics. Standard PU-based repair tape does not adhere well to silicone coatings.

Outstanding book
Format: Kindle
I loved this book so much that I'm sad that I've finished it. The story is fascinating, the characters well developed and the themes were important and heart wrenching. This is definitely one of the best books I ever read. I can't summarize the story without spoilers and I would not want to deny you the opportunity to enjoy the unfolding of this beautiful story. This is a book I will not forget and I look forward to Kathryn Society's next wonderful book. She is a tremendous author. Thank you Kathryn for the gift of this book!

Worth the Wait
Format: Kindle
Kathryn Stockett's The Calamity Club is well worth the wait, just as good or even better than The Help. This historical novel has all the literary ingredients to be added to the classics. This book is both engaging and horrifying since it reveals the cruel beliefs in Mississippi's past and explains the rigid mind-set of contemporary politics and culture. I was incensed by the ignorance and lack of empathy. However, as throughout history, the theme of women helping other women gave the story conflict, suspense, and lots of humor. The characters and plot are so engaging I would like a follow-up story, maybe a part two. I am ready for a movie version, if Meg and Birdie are well cast. The Calamity Club was worth the wait!

Entertaining
Format: Kindle
I read this book on Kindle in about 3 days. Birdie Calhoun, one of the main narrators, has got to be one of the most likable main characters a book could create. She’s practical, God-fearing, driven, smart, and loyal. Meg, the second narrator, is witty and humorous to listen to, especially since you’re seeing things through the eyes of an eleven year old orphan. There are a few big reveals throughout the book, and around the midpoint there is a shift in storyline which will tell you how the book got its name. I saw some reviews say the book is a bit long, which doesn’t bother me. I see how the length may be necessary given the fact that the author had to bounce between two separate story lines and then merge them in the end. My only feedback about the length would be there is a lot of time and detail during the middle of the book (especially Meg’s time with her adoptive family) but less time spent on the ending, leaving things a bit rushed and many characters’ fate ambiguous. I found myself wanting more closure for characters Frances & Mrs. Tartt, as well as the boarders such as Flossy. On a historical level, this book provides context for a dark time in America where society wanted to annex anyone deemed undesirable or peculiar, especially promiscuous women. Society was hyper focused on separating the pious from the “imbeciles” and punished anyone whose lives didn’t fit the perfect Christian mold. This caused characters like Frances and Mrs. Tartt to be obsessed with their reputation, and fear of tainted reputation is a huge factor in decision making amongst the main characters. Birdie, Meg, and Charlie seem to be the main characters willing to take huge risks and sacrifices for those that they love. This book inspired me to do some of my own research and I learned something new about American history.

An incredibly strong and memorable story.
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 glorious stars! Though she is big 656 paged girl, she offers so much heart. Lord how I loved this book. The characters were just so good together. Out of hardships, these women bound together for reasons of their own. Some of those reasons were tangled up with the other and none were wiser. Each, making an impact on another. This story offers hope where there’s tragedy, faith to persevere, lasting friendships, and love. Meg’s story of never giving up hope for her mother’s return, held me completely captive. 💖 Thank you Kathryn Stockett for penning a strong and memorable novel. Well done! I’m so pleased to have picked up this book to read and I hope you will too!

exceptional, very highly recommended character-driven literary family drama
Format: Kindle
Whistler by Ann Patchett is an exceptional, very highly recommended character-driven literary family drama which will definitely be one of the best books I've read this year. In Whistler Patchett has given us a beautifully written, eloquent, insightful and sensitive story encompassing the complexity of families, connections, and relationships over time. I love everything about this book. As they were visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Daphne Fuller's retired husband Jonathan notices an older man following them and they discover he is Eddie Triplett, Daphne's former stepfather. She hasn't seen him for 44 years but immediately remembers her love for him and the bond they had for a couple years. The two also shared a traumatic experience when she was nine and they were in a car accident. Immediately after this Daphne's mother divorced Eddie and he disappeared from her life. After this chance meeting and reconnection, Daphne immediately and understandably needs to see and tell her younger sister, Leda, about it. The sisters had a complicated childhood that Daphne never felt was very happy. Daphne and Leda's biological father, Buddy Zabriskie, was a deep-sea fisherman and left the family early, although the girls had a relationship with him. Then their mother married Eddie and both girls loved him for the brief time he was in their lives. Their third and final stepfather, Lucas Ekker, still lives with her mother in Massachusetts and they had two sons. The two sisters were done with stepfathers at this point. As the narrative unfolds, Daphne and Eddie continue to meet and restore their relationship as father and daughter, but now as adults. While following the present day events, Interstitial chapters jump back in time when Eddie was her stepfather and cover the events from when they were in the car accident. It is during these interludes back in time that were learn the story of Whistler and also see the deep connection between Eddie and Daphne. Events in both the past and present show how complicated interpersonal relationships are, how little we truly understand of our past, and, ultimately, how fragile life can be. Because this is a character-driven story, all the characters are portrayed as realistic, fully realized individuals with strengths and weaknesses. The narrative examines relationships, choices made in both the past and present and how many seemingly small and inconsequential moments can follow us our whole lives. It also gently shows how being recognized and understood by another person, even for a short period of time, can change your life and theirs. Whistler by Ann Patchett is a wonderful choice for everyone who enjoys thoughtful, sensitive, character-driven literary novels. Thanks to HarperCollins for providing me with an advance reader's copy via Edelweiss. My review is voluntary and expresses my honest opinion.
