Belter of a shelter. Can’t believe you found it so cheap. I’ve had two in the past. Very versatile. I used to remove the inner if the fly sheet had condensation in the morning. Left more room for packing away and making some breakfast in the rain. I packed away in two separate dry bags. If memory serves me well, I think I may have on occasion, left the end poles in and packed it away like that. I replaced the tbs with dyneema cord, same on the guylines, and used lighter pegs, all in 1.3kg , enough room for 6’ overweight me and a spaniel … Loved the review, excellent find…
I love these vango tents. I love that in cooler weather when bug season is over that you can ditch the inner and use it with the groundsheet as more as a tarp tent. Sheds a good few grammes when you want to carry a heavier sleeping bag and more clothing etc.
Ive been thinking about this tent for a while, saving up and umming and ahhing. Definitely a good buy!. There should be a couple of internal guy lines which form a sort of A frame for use in high winds that are supposed to give the tent some real stability. They come in thru a little gap in the inner tent and meet at the ridge.
Yes, I realised that after watching a couple of videos on it. I've got the guy line things and clips and the ones above the inner as well, just a case of threading them through and attaching them I think. I'll have a go the next time I pitch it.
Yes the tent is a bit worn and aged but that in itself i found educational as its relevant knowedge. Also with this video i got to see what it would be like to live in this tent for space snd motion which is crucial information often poorly covered. Inspired by you picking up bargains on facebook marketplace i tried to use facebook and put in tent as a search term only to get a mass of unrelated chaotic information. Perhaps if i knew an experienced facebook user who could navigate the site. Thx for posting.
Nice video of a nice tent. But why did I have the feeling that I am watching tent review by young Liam Neeson? Surely I am not the first one who says that you sound and look like him 😁
@@TheWalkingKev Cannot believe that nobody has said that before! First time found your channel few days ago and immediately I thought that you have to be Liam’s son 😁
@@TheWalkingKev "Pitching" in, splendid, there's another one; and here's another one: did you know Shakespeare lovers can get a seasonal winter 20% reduction on this tent? "Now is the Winter of my discount tent."
