The SuperHootch is about double the size of the ParaHootch (and uses twice the paraglider fabric), yet weighs just 16 ounces. For five ounces more than the ParaHootch, the truly abundant space is worth it.
The SuperHootch is very much like a frontless ParaTipi, except the front height is 52", instead of 56", so that ANY Trekking poles can be used for set-up. Ideal for summertime soloing and dedicated camping.

- Plenty large for two men and gear
- Full protection from 3 sides (please note, there is no "door")
- Front allows you to build a fire for warmth.
- Overhead eave helps keep the drips out.
- The SuperHootch also functions as a great catch-all shelter for your gear.

Designer's notes: ...it is plenty large for two men and gear. On the other hand, for constant day-pack carry in the event of unplanned bivouacing the original ParaHootch is the ticket. Five ounces is five ounces when the thing may NEVER actually get used.

The SuperTarp compresses further, making it about the size of shirt.

The Peg & Pole Kit is optional, for those who can't rely on the environment for their anchors.  It makes sure you have everything to set up your shelter. Better yet, the poles "nest" inside each other, meaning you can control the elevation of your pitch.
