You seems aren't sealed so you have to do that yourself (not tricky or expensive but still effort...?)

Can be compressed down to the size of a softball

How big is a softball compared to a beer can or something sensible though?!

Sealed seams? Go back and do it again borah..

"will provide complete protection from unpredictable and harsh mountain weather" it says but then "recommend McNett's Seam Grip for seam sealing"

It's about my fist size so about the same as what I have now.

Yeah, a lot of handmade ultralight stuff from the US (tarps, tents etc.) requires you to do your own seem sealing

It's not hard to do and you can get the McNett stuff in the UK.

I did it to my GoLite Shangri-La a while back.
