Does any one know where I can source the type of material used in lightweight tent flys by the metre? (I think it is called ripstop ployester)

Alternatively some other lightweight waterproof canvas or material. I have tried using polytarps but they are too heavy for waht I want.

thanks

Try this site. I haven't used them but they have quite a range.

You could try Clark Rubber - surprising what they have, or Spotlight or any tarp manufacturer/supplier/repairier.
