Also I want to mention that even though I own a 1.9oz CCS tarp, If you are not tarp savvy, an easy one to use is the Kammok Kuhli. There are no knots required, it’s just pull tight. You don’t need a lot of skill to use it and it’s ultra light and will do the job. It is certainly not in the league of Cooke Custom Sewing but it can be a worry free way to go while also providing a larger tarp area than the small gray one that comes with your Mantis.
