The standard DD Tarp 3x3 is the most popular for general UK camping. Choose the UV50 Plus if you camp in hot climates, travel to tropical regions, or want UV protection during summer camping and beach trips.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Protection Blocks 98% of UVA and UVB Rays

The UV50 Plus fabric treatment blocks over 98% of UVA and UVB rays that cause sunburn, skin damage, and long-term health risks from prolonged sun exposure. This protection lets you relax underneath the tarp in hot, sunny climates without worrying about harmful UV radiation reaching you through the fabric.

Standard camping tarps without UV protection allow UV rays to pass through the fabric, particularly when the sun is directly overhead. The UV50 Plus treatment in this tarp provides the same level of sun protection as high-quality sunscreen, making it suitable for extended periods in direct sunlight. This matters most in tropical regions, high altitude locations where UV intensity increases, and summer camping where you spend hours under the tarp during the hottest parts of the day.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus for Summer Camping and Hot Climate Travel

The UV50 Plus tarp suits summer camping in UK when you want shade from intense sun during heatwaves or extended sunny periods. The UV protection prevents the tarp from degrading as quickly under constant sun exposure compared to standard tarps, extending the tarp's lifespan when used regularly in sunny conditions.

For tropical hammock camping trips, the UV50 Plus provides essential sun protection during the day while maintaining waterproof performance for tropical rainstorms. The tarp works well as a beachside shelter between swims, protecting you from sun exposure while you rest. The UV protection also makes this tarp suitable as a garden awning or vehicle shelter in sunny climates where standard tarps degrade quickly from UV exposure.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Bancha Green Colour for Hot Climates

The Bancha Green colour is a light green shade that reflects more sunlight than darker colours like Olive Green or Forest Green. This lighter colour helps keep the area underneath the tarp cooler in hot weather by reflecting solar radiation rather than absorbing it. Dark colours absorb heat and make the sheltered area warmer, which works against you in hot climates.

The Bancha Green shade blends reasonably well with tropical vegetation and summer foliage while providing the heat-reflecting benefits of a lighter colour. This colour only comes on the UV50 Plus version, as it is specifically chosen for hot climate use rather than UK woodland camouflage.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Waterproof for Rain and Sun Protection

The UV50 Plus tarp maintains the same 3000mm waterproof PU coating and taped seams as other DD tarps, providing full waterproof protection alongside the UV blocking treatment. This dual protection makes the tarp suitable for tropical climates where you need shelter from both intense sun and heavy rainstorms.

The UV protective treatment does not compromise the waterproof performance. The tarp handles tropical downpours and prolonged rain as effectively as standard DD tarps while providing the additional benefit of UV protection during sunny periods. This makes the UV50 Plus particularly useful for tropical travel where weather alternates between intense sun and heavy rain throughout the day.

  • Weight - 790g excluding pegs and guy lines (same as standard 3x3)

  • NOT Included - Ridgeline (sold separately)

When to Choose DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Over Standard 3x3

Choose the UV50 Plus if you regularly camp in hot climates, travel to tropical regions, or do summer camping where UV protection matters. The UV blocking treatment prevents skin damage during extended periods under the tarp in direct sunlight, making it safer for all-day use as a sun shelter.

The UV50 Plus also suits situations where the tarp will be set up for extended periods in sunny conditions, such as semi-permanent garden shelters or vehicle awnings in hot climates. The UV protection extends the tarp's lifespan by preventing fabric degradation from constant sun exposure, making it more durable than standard tarps in sunny environments.

For UK camping in typical mixed weather conditions, the standard 3x3 provides adequate performance at lower cost with more colour options. The UV50 Plus justifies its higher price mainly for hot climate use, tropical travel, or situations where UV protection provides significant health or durability benefits.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Complementary Equipment

Pair this tarp with hammock suspension accessories and hammocks for tropical hammock camping setups. For hot weather camping, lightweight hammock quilts provide comfort without excessive insulation.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Limitations to Consider

The UV50 Plus only comes in Bancha Green colour, limiting your choice if you prefer darker woodland colours or camouflage patterns. The UV protection adds cost compared to the standard 3x3, making it more expensive for a feature you may not need if you mainly camp in typical UK weather with limited sun exposure.

The lighter Bancha Green colour shows dirt more easily than darker colours like Olive Green or Forest Green, requiring more frequent cleaning to maintain appearance. The UV protection is most beneficial in hot climates and tropical regions - for UK camping in typical mixed weather, the standard 3x3 provides adequate performance without the UV treatment premium.


DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Care and Maintenance

Clean the tarp regularly when used in sunny conditions, as the lighter Bancha Green colour shows dirt more readily than darker colours. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry completely before storing. The UV protective treatment maintains effectiveness over the tarp's lifetime with proper care.

Store the tarp out of direct sunlight when not in use, even though it has UV protection. While the UV50 Plus treatment protects the fabric during use, storing the tarp in a cool, dry place away from sunlight extends its overall lifespan. Inspect the fabric periodically for any signs of UV degradation, though the protective treatment significantly slows this process compared to untreated tarps.

DD Tarp 3x3 UV50 Plus Frequently Asked Questions

What does UV50 Plus protection mean?

UV50 Plus means the fabric blocks over 98% of UVA and UVB rays that cause sunburn and skin damage. This provides the same level of sun protection as high-quality sunscreen, making it safe to spend extended periods under the tarp in direct sunlight.

Do I need UV protection for UK camping?

For typical UK camping in mixed weather, the standard 3x3 provides adequate performance. UV protection becomes valuable during UK summer heatwaves, extended sunny periods, or if you camp at high altitudes where UV intensity increases. The UV50 Plus is most beneficial for tropical travel and hot climate camping.

Does the UV protection affect waterproof performance?

No, the UV50 Plus tarp maintains the same 3000mm waterproof rating and taped seams as other DD tarps. The UV protective treatment does not compromise waterproof performance, making it suitable for tropical climates where you need protection from both sun and rain.

Why is the UV50 Plus only available in Bancha Green?

The Bancha Green colour is specifically chosen for hot climate use because lighter colours reflect more sunlight and keep the sheltered area cooler. Darker colours absorb heat, which works against you in hot weather. DD Hammocks offers this tarp in one colour optimized for its intended use in sunny conditions.

Will the UV protection wear off over time?

The UV50 Plus treatment is integrated into the fabric during manufacturing and maintains effectiveness over the tarp's lifetime with proper care. Store the tarp out of direct sunlight when not in use to extend its overall lifespan, though the UV treatment significantly slows degradation compared to untreated tarps.

Can I use the UV50 Plus for winter camping?

Yes, the UV50 Plus works for winter camping and provides the same waterproof performance as other DD tarps. However, the lighter Bancha Green colour and UV protection features are optimized for hot climate use, so the standard 3x3 in darker colours may be more practical for UK winter camping.

Is the UV50 Plus suitable as a permanent garden shelter?

The UV protection makes this tarp more suitable for semi-permanent setups in sunny locations compared to standard tarps. The UV treatment prevents fabric degradation from constant sun exposure, extending the tarp's lifespan when used as a garden awning or vehicle shelter in hot climates.

Does the UV50 Plus weigh the same as the standard 3x3?

Yes, both weigh 790g excluding pegs and guy lines. The UV protective treatment does not add significant weight to the tarp, making it equally suitable for backpacking and lightweight camping as the standard version.

Can I use the UV50 Plus for beach camping?

Yes, the UV50 Plus works well for beach camping and beachside shelters. The UV protection prevents skin damage during extended periods in direct sun, and the waterproof coating handles unexpected rain. The lighter Bancha Green colour reflects heat better than darker colours in beach environments.

Avatar is about reflecting real world issues, and this comic does not disappoint
Format: Paperback
I will admit that at first, I was disappointed that Turf Wars portrayed homophobia in the Avatar verse. My thought was that if this is a fictional world, why not just have homophobia not exist. But Avatar has always been about reflecting real world issues, and this comic handles those issues in a way that felt honest and close to home. It didn't feel like it was using homophobia to exploit the LGBT characters for drama. As a lesbian, I felt that I could relate deeply to the obstacles that Korra and Asami face while entering their relationship, and dealing with coming out. My girlfriend and I both come from conservative families, so it was important early on to communicate coming out boundaries with each other. When Asami hesitates toward immediately coming out to Korra's parents, this isn't portrayed as a negative thing, just that it's important for Korra and Asami to communicate about this. Another thing I loved was the look that Kya gives Korra and Asami, and how she's immediately able to recognize that they're in a relationship. I love that she becomes a support for them, and they have an LGBT mentor in their lives. That's what makes this comic special, to me. This doesn't just realistically portray an LGBT romantic relationship, it also portrays LGBT community, which I find is far rarer in media. It's virtually non-existent in children's media. The only other example I can think of is an episode of Danger & Eggs which features a pride parade. The media landscape is starved for healthy, realistic, and nuanced portrayals of LGBT couples, but what I hardly ever see is LBGT community and culture shown on top of that. I believe there is room in media for both fiction where homophobia doesn't exists, and fiction where it's portrayed with realism without exploitation. In these cases, it's important to show LGBT characters facing these struggles by finding community with each other. Connection through community is powerful. I don't know who I'd be if I didn't grow up without LGBT friends supporting me and guiding me throughout my coming out process. Seeing a comic portray that process is beautiful, and I hope that's the direction the creative world continues to go in. The art is gorgeous, and the story feels like a natural continuation of the television series. When I read the dialogue, I can hear the character's voices in my mind as if I were watching another episode. I'm excited to learn more about the Avatar universe, and watch Korra, Asami, and all the other characters continue to grow and develop with each other.

I expected it to be good, but instead it's great.
Format: Paperback
A surprisingly re-readable little book. I really look forward to part 2! WRITING: Feels like a true continuation of the show. The characters and the world are just like a Season 5, Episode 1 might have been. Mako and Bolin were great together. Korra and Asami were great together. Of the supporting characters, I was glad to see Tenzin and Lin, and a little sad not to see Varrick or Wu. (Maybe they will fit naturally into the plot somewhere in book 2 or 3 of this series? If not, that's okay. It's better for writing to make sense than to have cameos.) ART: Wow. Just the right amount of additional detail for the comic format. I love the clarity of these panels and the camera shots chosen for them. How each character feels shows in their face and body. How a fight scene unfolds can be seen--you can actually tell what the characters do when they fight. It's wonderful. (I'm a bit of a fight scene enthusiast.) Also, the spirit world was whimsical and gorgeous to behold. Nice variety of lush color palettes for each scene. The new characters have distinctive faces, and the new villain has very cool-looking weapons.

It's been three years.
Format: Paperback
This was a great read! It felt like I was actually watching an episode of Korra while flipping through this. Michael DiMartino did a good job at making the dialougue sound like it could've been part of a Korra script. Of course the plot isn't going to be too dramatic since poor Korra already dealt with most of the worst situations ever in the show. The tone is much calmer, with much of the comic's focus being on Korra and Asami's budding relationship and a realistic conflict involving a greedy businessman wanting to turn the spirit portal into a tourist attraction. This comic is very much a suitable continuation of the show. Irene Koh's art is so beautiful!! I love how it's not the typical children's comic cartoony style. I've heard that people have actually been complaining about how it's so different from the show's original style, but I personally think it's fitting and very charming. It gives it a more mature feel. My main complaint is that it's too short. It took nearly three years after the finale for this comic to be released and it's only 80 pages! And the next part isn't going to be released until January! I guess me and other Korra fans are just going to have to stay patient for another 6 months or so.

Format: Paperback
To say that I was excited for this comic to be released is an understatement. I was waiting all day for it to be delivered and immediately ripped the package open once I got my hands on it. I just finished reading Part One and can safely say that I was not at all disappointed. Reading this story felt like being welcomed home into a world that I grew up in. I started watching the Avatar series when it first aired when I was nine years old. I grew up with those younger characters in ATLA and then spent my teenage years alongside the characters of The Legend of Korra. I was figuring myself out at the same time that Korra was. The finale when Korra and Asami got together came at the perfect time for me as I was still wrestling with my attraction towards multiple genders, especially to women, so to see two female characters (both of whom are also women of color) find comfort in one another and embark on a romantic journey together was everything to me. This comic continued from that point beautifully. We see the infamous Korrasami vacation and it is absolutely stunning. The artwork in this comic jumps of the page. It fits in wonderfully with that of the animated series while still maintaining its own identity. The story itself acts as a set-up for what's to come, but we got another layer of world-building for this wonderful universe and the characters are still the people I remember from the end of the series. I adore every bit of it.
