My MLD tarp and bug net inner showed up today. By the time I was free to go set it up there wasn't much daylight left so I pitched everything in a rush. My initial impressions are (as expected) very positive. Fantastic workmanship, excellent pitch and lighter than advertised.
The tarp weighs 7oz even without any lines attached. With generous cord attached it comes in at 9 oz. I have three 4ft lengths on each side and 12ft on either end. The caternary curves are slight but make for a tight pitch with very little tension in the lines. I didn't bother staking the sides out because the tarp was so tight.
The Serenity bug net inner mates perfectly with the Grace Duo. I asked Ron to add linelocs to either peak of the net shelter so I can run elastic cord to the poles and tension the tent that way. I'm pleased with how easy that makes the setup. I wouldn't describe the space inside as palatial but its adequate to complete my normal ritual inside the mesh inner: clean up, get changed & sleep.
I plan on posting a more in depth summary (including video) on my blog soon. Please let me know if there are any specific details you'd like to see. I'll post here when the review is ready. After I've spent a few nights out in it I'll follow up with a longer term field review. I can't wait to go for a walk!
