Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL3 Bikepacking tent : Guyline fix ( Adjustable ) Tent floor smoothing Mod

Описание: A very cheap and effective Hack for the old problem of dealing with tent peg placement. This is a non invasive fix for the factory guy lines at the foot end of the Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL3 Bikepacking Tent. It will allow you to tighten the guy lines at the Fly and the Corner near the tent foot so you can have a taut and smooth floor inside and also keep the fly from touching the tent inner wall. Keeps the fly drip line further away from the tent edge too.
This fix can be applied to any corner you realy feels needs it.

Apolygies for my and mumblings, im Australian.

3mm army chord used cut into these lengths:
3x 40cm (Prusik)
1x 80com (Fly)
1x 110cm (Corners)
(this list will do just one edge of the tent so copy and repeat for the other corners.)


Knots Used:
Taut-Line Hitch
Prusik knot/loop
Figure 8 knot
(easily found @ wikipedia )

Warning!
Prussik knots can freeze and become unmovable in certain conditions. This is a 3 season tent so less likely to happen but be aware. My method leaves the exsisting guylines on the tent so should this happen you have a back up.

You can possibly use thinner chordage but just make sure that Prussik Loop is a smaller diameter than the rope its sliding on. Dyneema chord is too slippery for this application but most smaller diameter guyline chord should work. I havent tried 2mm venitian blind string but it may work?

Its been a wet humid summer and everything grows like crazy here, that lawn definetly needs an mow! One day.

Dont stop believing!
