Product Description
Simply put, the Gossamer Gear Spinnshelter™ is the lightest weight, full protection waterproof shelter available on the market today. It provides an unbelievable 4.9 sq. ft. of floor space per ounce of waterproof shelter!
Spinnshelter fabric is made in Europe and was originally designed to the exacting standards for use in the most recent America’s Cup Yacht race. The shelter design itself originated from the desire to have full coverage when needed, combined with the versatility that you’d expect from using a tarp for shelter, delivered using ultralight but uncompromising fabric.

High thread count spinnaker cloth - the lightest fully waterproof fabric available
Computer-designed catenary ridgeline
Provides COMPLETE protection from the elements
Overall tarp/door design allows multiple pitching configurations
All four doors can be rolled closed or pitched open independently

Front peak height allows average-sized hiker to sit up inside
Computer designed main tarp wall shapes allow sufficient interior height and space to minimize contact with interior walls
Five stake out points per side (on main tarp) extends pitching options and minimizes fabric stress
