FAQ:

I'm over 6', will I fit?
That depends. There are many factors that determine if you'll be comfortable using the Deschutes. It depends upon the height of the setup, the depth of your sleeping pad and your sleeping style. Take a look at the picture of the Deschutes Tarp with the Serenity NetTent, the Serenity is 84" or 7' long and has vertical end walls of 9". Without the Serenity the height is 13" at the point where the Serenity would end. Using a thick sleeping mat will compromise internal space and minimize headroom. Also setting up the Deschutes low to the ground will do the same. However, properly set up, most people will find the Deschutes more than roomy enough for a good night's sleep.

What is the recommended Pole Height?
The Deschutes Tarp can be set up at different heights. At 40" the Deschutes hugs the ground, providing maximum protection. The Deschutes can accommodate a variable height of between 45" to 49 depending upon conditions and your personal preferences. For maximum interior space or using the Serenity NetTent, set your pole to 49". In most cases you'll want to angle your pole so the bottom is inside the vestibule area. This helps to maximize the sleeping area.

What is a good swim cadence and how can I increase mine?
　　Swim cadence (and run cadence) are very much the same as bike cadence in that you’re measuring the number of times your arms complete strokes. 　　The difference with swimming from cycling is that you count every individual stroke as opposed to full revolution. 　　Cadence is one of two variables in the swim speed equation, along with stroke length. Swim speed...
Two simple questions to ask yourself to improve your swim skills
　　Progress in sport comes step-by-step. It takes a long time, and the only way to get there is one stroke at a time, one revolution at a time, and one stride at a time. There’s a lot of repetition, and that’s certainly true of swimming. 　　The problem is that it’s easy to go on autopilot, and when you do, you’re...
Two more ways to challenge your swim drills
　　A good drill can make a big difference in helping you improve your skills.But to continue to keep learning, you have to continue to perform novel activities. 　　You’re not going to keeping learning by repeating a drill you’re already familiar with, so you need to create a new challenge. 　　However, that doesn’t necessarily mean you have to change the drills...
Three easy ways to accelerate your swim progress
　　If you’re an athlete, you’re probably not satisfied with your progress. It can never be too fast, and that’s certainly true of triathletes. If you’re in a bit of a rut, and you’re looking for ways to start improving again, check out these three simple strategies to kick-start your progress. 　　Switch up your speed 　　Too many triathletes perform all of...
Beginner's guide to off-road biking
　　Off-road riding isn’t for everyone. You’re going to get muddy (in the UK, at least), you’re going to crash regularly when starting out (at least the landing is generally softer than on the road!) and you’re going to need some new kit to get the most from your rides. The benefits are myriad, though. 　　You can explore the countryside in...
How to use a swim leg band correctly
　　For those looking to improve their swimming, in particular the skill and fitness of their pull, a swim leg band, which goes around the ankles, can be an attractive strategy. 　　It makes perfect sense, too – take away the legs and stress the arms.While simple in concept, it’s actually an advanced training strategy, and swimming well with a band is...
When to use two swim drills in the same set
　　All drills have advantages, and all drills have disadvantages. Rather than accepting this reality, we can overcome it by using multiple drills at the same time to retain the advantages, while eliminating the disadvantages. 　　In this article, I’ll show you three ways to make it happen. 　　Sensory and movement drills 　　Sensory drills can be really useful for helping you feel...
Cycling: how to ride downhill fast and safely
　　The only way to improve your downhill confidence and skills is to practise so, rather than treating descents just as a chance for recovery, focus on riding them as fast and safely as you can. Here's how… 　　How should you position yourself going downhill? 　　When riding downhill, a balanced position on the bike is vital. Essentially this simply means you...
How to use your legs properly while you swim
　　Developing a solid kick during freestyle swimming is difficult to do.The mistake many triathletes make is that they’ll perform a kick set to develop the skill and fitness of their legs, and then they’ll perform a swim set.Or they’ll perform the kick set at the end of a workout after they’re swimming. 　　The problem with this approach is that they’ll...
Simple steps to write a great swim workout
　　Writing a workout can seem like a daunting task.It doesn’t have to be. Here are some simple steps that you can use to start writing workouts that get the job done. 　　Create clear goals 　　The biggest mistake triathletes make is creating workouts that are too complicated and too unfocused.You want to make sure you have a simple, crystal-clear goal that...
Why fatigue is great for learning swim skills
　　We’re usually taught that skills are best learned when we’re completely fresh, with little to no fatigue. While there is certainly value in taking that approach, it doesn’t mean that you should only work on skills when you’re feeling good. 　　In fact, working on your skills specifically when you’re tired can actually improve your skills, rather them make them worse....
The drill combination that will improve your catch
　　Improving the catch in freestyle can be difficult to do.And unfortunately, it’s an important skill to master because without an effective catch, it’s very difficult to create an effective pull. 　　Because it’s important, and because it’s difficult, we want to use the most effective strategies to create positive change, and sometimes, that means using multiple strategies in combination. 　　I’m going...
