[pct-l] tents

[John Abela]

I have used a few SpinnUL products over the last few years. They are
the noisiest material of anything I have used. But, it is really at
water saturation and lighter than Silnylon. These days, even though
its really expensive, I will take cuben fiber over anything else out
there. SpinnUL is just makes to much noise for my likes.
