Thank you SO much for all the amazing comments this past month. It's really interesting and encouraging to hear back from you all and I hope that you will join me (in spirit) as I walk the length of Ireland for the next five weeks - starting in a few days time :)

[kurtmeidinger]

I like you adding how you pack it all up.

I’ve had that tent for a couple of years now and never knew the cross-pole goes over the top of the central pole. Game changer! Thanks Derek 👏

Hi Derek, it’s a great tent and I have a lot of faith in its capabilities ie thunderstorms. I have one now to replace my faithful hubba nx. A few things I found with this tent. Buy a msr groundsheet and it not only protects the floor but if you rig it correctly you can rig the fly only and use as ultra lightweight tent or rig in rain then put up inner tent last to keep it dry. Can also derig in reverse this way and pack inner dry if raining when leaving camp. I also sometimes stow poles separately and the tent packs down much better. Safe travels!

This has to be the most helpful and useful gear video I've ever watched. Thank you!

[louishansen]

Hey just thought I'd mention, the fly corners clip in under the tent corners, not onto the pegs

Very nice review. The cross-pole on top! Supertip. This afternoon we have set up our new tent, and we asked ourselves why it was difficult to get it fine in the middle of the tent. The cross-pole on top, that's the thing 😊 Thanks a lot from the Netherlands. Thanks Pia and Martin

[MelanieChristensen]

Inside the tent, there says that it's the opposite what you do with the poles on the top. The small poles shall be under the big one.

[peterkumble]

thanks great review. I bought one and used in the Canadian provincial parks west of Victoria. Worked well in the rain, the only rain on two months there...

Really nice tent, it has a same frame concept with Naturehike Mongar 2P ultralight, but it has a different sensatuon when using MSR, they have a small portion of B3 Mesh system.

[japroducties]

Thank you man for your clear and direct explanation. It helped me a lot setting up my awesome new tent. Much love from the Netherlands!

[charliem]

[farmerspud]

Best of luck on your hiking trip.Can't wait, really enjoy your hiking vlogs.

Great review, thanks. We've been thinking of buying one of these to replace my old TN Explorer - 20 years old now!

[sixwestpoint]

Derek, thanks for popping up on my feed today! Great review but really as an Englishman who’s lived in Derry for 25 years I’m keen to hear how you find it in our wonderfully inconsistent Irish climate. I’ve heard about issues in high winds with this tent folding in on itself so keen to know how you get on with it. I’m loving to dual entrance and height of this tent which is why I’m considering it.

On another note you’ve a bloody great channel I’ve been watching it all morning thanks, really refreshing content.

[Naturschock]

Very Good Video, thanks a lot :) Cant wait for my Hubba Hubba to arrive!

[GauravKhuranaxy]

Watched your vid and put up my tent within minutes . Many thanks !

[alanthomas]

thanks for confirming that the short ridge pole goes above the main one... i've been struggling with that in the field.

(if you set it up underneath - where it naturally wants to be! - then that can make fitting the midpoint grommets tricky)

[kendallkyle]

Nice video Derek, well done. Hope you had a great trip!
