Hi Everyone-
I cant imagine I am the first guy to do this so I figured i'd ask here.
Last elk season while setting up my kifaru paratarp, I honked down on one if the front guy lines for a tight stake out of the front entry. I heard a pop and realized that in monkeying around with it, the trekking pole tip has shifted out of its little reinforced cup and now under tension had popped through the tarp material right next to the peak. I was actually pretty amazed how much tension it took that sharp carbide tip to tear through. Certainly tough material.
Anyway the dime size hole sits right above my face as I sleep so I figure I need to get it repaired for next season.
Is this something you would send back to Kifaru for a proper repair? Or is there something easy but reliable that I can do at home to seal it up? Any advice would be great.
Thanks!
Brendan
