Mietprodukt

Flexible, stable and ready for any adventure

These adjustable tarp poles let you position your tarp perfectly – whether as a minimalist shelter for solo trips or a spacious refuge for rainy breaks on the mountain. The high-quality construction ensures maximum stability, even in wind and weather. And thanks to the thoughtful design, you can adjust the poles flexibly – depending on your setup or how much space you need.

Versatility you can rely on

The tarp poles consist of two independently adjustable sections. You can use them individually – ideal for asymmetrical setups – or connect them together to achieve an impressive total length of up to 240 cm. The sturdy spike at the top is perfect for securely attaching tarp loops. For use as a center support in the tarp, you can simply unscrew the spike and place the pole directly under the tarp – without pressure points or slippage.

The robust aluminum construction ensures an excellent weight-to-stability ratio. Weighing just 723 grams and with a compact pack size, the poles can be easily stowed in a backpack – without taking up much space.
