Each component plays a crucial role in ensuring a secure, adjustable, and hassle-free experience. Below, we explore their functions and benefits.
Link Lock: Effortless Setup and Tension Control
The Link Lock (also known as a line lock or tensioner) allows for easy setup and takedown of your tarp or tent. It simplifies tension adjustments and eliminates the need for complex knots, making the process more intuitive and efficient.
How to Use the Link Lock
-
Pass the shock cord of the guyline collection system through the tarp/tent pull-out webbing.
-
Tie a secure knot at the end to prevent slipping.
-
Leave the guyline system attached to the tarp when packing up for quicker reinstallation on your next trip.
Key Benefits
-
Ease of Use: No need for complicated knots—adjustments are quick and effortless.
-
Adjustability: Provides infinite tension adjustments for optimal setup in various conditions.
-
Time-Saving: Eliminates repetitive installations, reducing setup time significantly.
-
Stability in Windy Conditions: Ensures your tarp remains securely in place despite changing weather.
Shock Cord: Flexibility and Protection
The Shock Cord plays a vital role in maintaining consistent tension in your guylines. Its elasticity helps absorb sudden forces caused by wind, rain, or movement, minimizing strain on your tarp and enhancing durability.
Why Use a Shock Cord?
-
Weather Resilience: Absorbs tension from gusts of wind and shifting weather conditions.
-
Enhanced Durability: Prevents excessive stress on your tarp’s anchor points, reducing the risk of tears or damage.
-
Accident Prevention: Acts as a buffer if someone trips over a guyline, preventing sudden jolts that could dislodge stakes or damage the tarp setup.
Line Stopper with Hook: Tangle-Free Organization
The Line Stopper with Hook is an adjustable component that helps manage and store guylines efficiently. It allows you to keep excess guyline neatly coiled and prevents them from getting tangled or dragged on the ground.
Functions and Benefits
-
Customizable Storage: Adjust the position of the stopper to collect guylines neatly.
-
Prevents Tangles: Keeps multiple guylines from intertwining, ensuring a smoother setup next time.
-
Dual Functionality: Can be used to secure the tarp directly to tent stakes for short-distance anchoring, eliminating the need for an additional guyline in certain conditions.

The Onewind Tarp Guyline Collection System is designed for efficiency, reliability, and ease of use. With the combination of the Link Lock, Shock Cord, and Line Stopper with Hook, campers can set up their shelter quickly, adjust tension effortlessly, and store guylines neatly for their next adventure.
