Description

The tent is double-layered and consists of an inner tent and an outer layer – rain fly. The inner tent has a rectangular floor plan with two entrances on its longer sides. The outer tent is octagonal, it also has two entrances, in which there are two vestibules, suitable for storing luggage, for example.

Tent concept

It is based on the principle where the tent pole structure is strung in tunnels outside the rain fly. The tent and the inner tent (which is suspended under the rain fly) are erected at the same time after threading the tent poles through the tunnels. The advantage of this method is that the inner tent can be detached from the rain fly and the rain fly can then be erected separately. This will give us a single-shell tent without a floor.

Ventilation

It is located at the top of the dome of the rain fly. The canopies of the ventilation windows are shaped so that they are not tilted by the wind, if necessary they can be closed with Velcro. This prevents leakage even during rain with strong wind.

Building a Tent

Put the tent poles of the structure through the sleeves outside the rain fly and insert the ends of the tent poles into the brass eyes on the loops of the lower edge of the rain fly. Then we fasten the buckles on the straps and on the ground inside the tent and the rain fly is set up. We fasten the inner tent to the loops on the inside of the rain fly. We anchor the erected tent with pegs and cords and fasten it with plastic clips.
