Thanks for the reference to cuben from Zpacks.
Was looking for green shaded cuben to use for the vestibule portion of my next tent.
(Not happy with silnylon for a dome design because of the sagging).
The Zpacks .6 oz. was perfect, in a nice light shade of green, and I didn't have to buy 8 meters. It will take off about a quarter pound, and looking at some .6 oz clear cuben i bought to experiment with, I think it is a lot less noisy than spinnaker.
Appreciate that.

P.S. Am a diehard sewer, so my only concern is that it might rip along the seam lines (from a comment by one of the cottage manufacturers on a thread last year, but I think the discussion was about the .33 oz cuben – not sure). Could laminate a strip of it with Hysol to the main panel at the seam line before sewing. Does anyone think this is advisable?
P.P.S. Lawson, How does one know if silnylon is "6,6"?
