So I have thee 100t (non Aquatex) with all the accessories etc, which I love the size and concept of, but the material in the sun is just too thin for me and I'd like some shade and comfort out of it!

So it's got me thinking about the new dpm 100t has anyone got one yet? How are you finding it? And is it work splashing out all over again?

Do you have the Skull Cap Wrap?

I have the normal 100T too and I use the Skull Cap Wrap when I need the shade.

Yeah I have the skull cap and skull cap wrap! I suppose that is an option it just seems backwards to put the wrap on when it's boiling outside, but yeah that would help I'm sure!

I use mine all year round and it also helps with condensation on those warm nights

I upgraded from the standard 100T to the Aquatexx version and it is great, makes what is, (for me) the perfect shelter even better.

One thing I would add is personally I would give the DPM version a swerve. I had the 150 in DPM and the material that covers the zip on the infil panel curls up when it is warm for some reason, then goes flat again (covering the zip) when the temperature cools down....... ...i got caught in a big downpour last year and the infil zips let water in as they were not covered at the time...the DPM version went back and I exchanged it for the green which doesn't have the same issue......can only put it down to something in the printing process to put the DPM pattern on...
