Product description

Skjold 10 is a lightweight Silicone Nylon Tarp that comes with guylines and stakes. Skjold 10 will protect you and your gear from the elements.

  • Skjold 10 is perfect for the Draumr hammocks, conventional hammocks (you simply turn the tarp 90 degrees), and for those minimalists who prefer to sleep on the ground in open air.
  • The Skjold 10 is approximately 30% larger than previous tarps.
  • The tarp's lightweight fabric is extremely strong for its weight, and the slippery siliconized surface has an improved ability to shed water and snow.
  • Skjold 10 is ready to be deployed between two trees or set up using your trekking poles or sticks.
  • Reflective guylines, adjusters and micro carabiners are pre-attached.
  • Six lightweight stakes are included, all with reflective pull cords, making them easier to spot in the dark.
  • Skjold 10 packs easy by stuffing it into the generous stuff sack.

Developed by Norwegian outdoor engineers.

FAQ

Everything you need to set it up! The tarp comes with a suspension system, guylines, and tarp stakes. Seam sealer is also included if you need to seam seal your tarp.

The Skjold tarps come with all parts for easy plug and play. Guylines are attached to eight points on the tarp. Two of the guylines have small carabiners attached for Draumr setup. The stuff sack has a small pocket containing 6 stakes for securing the remaining guylines.

The tarp has reinforced corners for tarp-poles or a stick if that's your weapon of choice. This allows you to pitch the tarp in "porch-mode" which gives you a nice view of your surroundings while protected from the weather.

Move the carabiners around (or add more) for a different setup.

Check out this video for a demonstration on how to set up the tarp in "Draumr-mode" and in "Segl XL-mode" (or gathered end-mode).

The total weight for Skjold 10 UL is 520 g / 18,3 oz. The normal Skjold 10 has a total weight of 655 g/ 23 oz.

Both tarps are solid and waterproof and they are manufactured in the same way. Skjold UL is made of a slightly thinner fabric but is nearly as robust as Skjold 10.

You don’t need to seam-seal your tarp for general use, but we recommend it if you expect heavy or sustained rain. The tarp is made from high-quality silicone-coated fabric, which is extremely waterproof. However, the seams - like with all silicone tarps - can still allow some water through.

That’s why we include a seam sealing kit. Applying it is a one-time process: just stretch out the tarp, apply the sealer along the seams, and let it dry for at least 24 hours. It's a bit of work, but it ensures your tarp is 100% waterproof.

Our manufacturing partners don’t pre-seal the seams because the process is time-consuming and requires a lot of space, sealing it yourself gives you maximum protection when conditions get rough.
