So is it possible to flip a tramp on a H16? Bottom side of the tramp is in perfect shape, top side is weathered but strong still. The hiking straps are shot so they would need replaced anyhow. So can it be done?

Yes, but....

There will be exposed edges all around the perimeter from where edges of the tramp are heat sealed. Also, the bottom surface of the vinyl tramps does not have a texture, so it will be more slippery than the top surface.

Damn that's a bummer, I was really hoping for a cheap fix. I haven't gotten any bites on a used mesh tramp on here and I really don't want to break down and buy new.
