Review on Seattle Sports Lashmates Supersuk Attachment by Alfonso Wilson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

To attach the tarp to a GRP roof trailer

I needed a suction cup system to attach the tarp to my GRP A frame roof trailer. I have tried both this brand and another brand of suction cups. It's fabulous. While the other slipped off with a distinct tug, this Seattle Sports tie didn't budge no matter how hard I tugged. I plan to order a few more and pitch my tent on my next hike. Let's see how well it holds up in the wind and will be in use for several days. Now that I've used it on a hike I can give a little more detail. On our first attempt to attach the top to the trailer with 5 suction cups later that day, one of the suction cups came loose. We then applied a light lube (we had wheel bearing grease, but petroleum jelly would probably work too). We widen the edges a bit - finger width is all we used. It took us two days to break the stock and one of them stuck so well it took no effort to pull it off even after the pressure was gone. We had a light breeze but no strong wind. We are very happy with the results.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Very expensive
