I’m awaiting a Cricket tarp from MLD. For anybody who has owned one of these, I’m looking for guidance on guy line lengths (front tie-out, corners, rear tie out). Thanks.

I have a DCF Cricket, and use the following lengths:

Front peak: 7 ft

front corners: start with 3 ft

rear corners: 2 ft

Pitch the tent with just those lines, then cut/attach the mid-perimeter and mid-panel lines accordingly. I use the same stake for mid-perimeter and mid-panel guy lines. Mid-panel lines are recommended to have a shock-cord loop.

The Cricket is a great shelter – enjoy!
