Both tents not used in a year and shock cord is shot. Anyone know size and length needed for a Copper Spur 3? Same question, Eureka Timberline 4? And can I reuse the stoppers or need new? Thanks!
For Eureka tents contact Johnson Outdoors - (eurekacamping.johnsonoutdoors.com).Have you contacted Johnson Camping about your Timberline? Eureka used to sell replacement shock cord kits for both the 2 & 4 person Timberline tents. My guess is you might find them elsewhere as well but it might take a deeper dive into various catalogs; although I'd suggest you begin with Campmor if you're going to do that.
That's all for now. Take care and until next time...be well.

PS - It's a bit of a pain but one way to get your tent pole shock cord to last is to open the poles up for storage. When they stay folded up, section by section, it puts a lot of pressure on the cord. Eventually it will lose its elasticity and lead to it flopping around instead of fitting tightly in the pole sections.
Thanks for the link !I had an ongoing problem with a couple of tents, and was told by someone that basic shock cord wont last very long. the better quality tents use a certain kind of shock cord. I bought some from tent pole technologies and havent had a problem since.
