Luxe Hex Peak V4A, V4 Groundsheet and F4 Double Inner - Overview 

Thanks Bob and please please get the show back on Its a long way for me ,But I really enjoyed it and would love to see it on again. All the best Pete

I bought the Luxe Sil-Rocket from your website a few years ago. It has never let me down! It has survived stormy nights half way up The Cobbler & amazingly there was no water ingress despite being camped on what amounted to a bog. Most impressed. We bought the Mega Horn later for family camping holidays where more space is required. Great products.

Looking forward to ordering and receiving this tent great low weight with a huge amount of space it will be ideal for my upcoming multi day backpacking trips 👍👍

Helpful video with some useful tips. Thank you.

Cheers for that Bob. bought mine from you the other week and was wondering about the seam sealing and shock cord adaption.

great review !

Changeable inner position is a smart idea.

I prefer Aluxe minipeak 2P, its nice n simple but it willbe more nicely if completed with floorsheet which is sewing in one with the tent to prevent from bugs/ant/snake/etc enter the tentroom.

Thanks for the video. I have purchased the V4 outerfly and am looking for a double inner that would be lighter than the F4 (almost 1kg). Any recommandation? Thank you!

Hi Bob, I just wanted to drop you a comment and say thanks for the insight that this video (and your others on the F6 & F8) has provided. I bought a V4A off you last week. I've only done a couple of practice pitches with it but am impressed with the overall quality of the tent (it'll get its first proper outing over the bank holiday weekend). I'll be seam sealing it in due course and also doing that shock cord mod to the inner tent guylines that you recommended in this video. I spent an unhealthy amount of time pondering whether to get the V4A or the F6A. I liked the amount of extra space that the F6 offered (pure luxury!), but I went for the V4A because I preferred the inner tent arrangement. One suggestion that I would offer up for you/Luxe to consider is whether its worth offering the F6A as an outer tent only option so that the buyer can then spec it out with their preferred inner tent. If that option was available then I'd have most likely gone for the F6 with a V4 inner. I appreciate you can just buy the F6A, add the V4 inner to the order and have the choice of both inner tents. But breaking it down further might make it more affordable? Thanks again for the great service 👍

just brought one from you !

I'm pretty sure the inner clips to the eyelets on the 6 corners of the tent not to the pegs. That's where I clip mine and it erects the bathtub perfectly 👍

Hi can we pitch both double inner and hex peak v4a together in one go? or we have to do the inner first and then outer fly on top?

All these light weight tipi shelters are based around the old Golite HEX 3 which I still own and after 10 years is still going strong and is much bigger ( 2 people easily 3 at a squeeze) . At just over 1.5 kg without pegs which for a 2/3 person tent is imho very light.

Nice video, I have a 4a and in the instructions it shows attaching the inner to rings on the inside which are behind the guy points of the fly sheet. I tend to use this method and it seems to work.

I'm thinking about getting that Luxe Hex Peak and putting a stove jack on it for a winter tent!

Since this is the upgraded version with a larger inner. Is it still really too small for me being 6 foot 3? I looked at your older review of the earlier version of this tent saying the same thing. The inner went from 225 cm to 233 but still too small?

Had my v4a that I got second hand for about 2 months , when I clip the inner in I just connect the hooks to the rings that are on the outer of the tent , not on the pegs , does this come as default or has the previous owner put them on . Little bit confused from the video.

Can i get away with just a trekking pole without all these missing links?

Western Tent Makers: you're killing us by purchasing Chinese clones instead of the originals. ME: Okay, so will you sell me a Hex Peak F6 Fly and a 4VA single inner? You know, EXACTLY like the guy above uses in HIS adventures? Western Tent Makers: No. You can buy the full-priced Hex Peak F6A, along with the expensive double inner you won't use, plus the 4VA inner seperately. ME: hold on... is that Aliexpress?

For the money you pay for a basic tent your only getting half the tent. Having to seal a modern tent yourself? Seriously? It looks like a dogs dinner that sealing. Buy the pole at extra cost. Again a tent without a pole is useless. Much better tents out there for less
