A review of the MSR Zing shelter from Adventure Kayak magazine.
A tarp is essential for a camp kitchen, gathering area or even sleeping shelter that’s shielded from the rain, sun and wind. The MSR Zing has multiple configuration options that let you optimize for space or protection and includes two adjustable aluminum poles if you’d rather not use your carbon paddle for support. Mastering the set-up of a high quality tarp like this provides added relief from the elements on weather-bound days.
