Hi All- After several years way from the trails I've decide to get back on the trail and lighten things up bit. I've never owned any cuben fiber gear before and have been doing my research and am very impressed. I cannot for the life of me, decide between the Tartent Double Rainbow or Zpacks Duplex. While cost is not my primary decision factor, nearly 2.5x the cost of the Zpacks begs me to ask the question- is it really worth it?
To clarify, I'm coming up with nearly (2.5x) the cost when figuring in I'd also pick up some Gossamer Gear Trekking Poles at $174 plus the upgraded Duplex at $630 versus Tarptent Double Rainbow w/ Carbon Poles a $344
