5 m² (53.8 ft²) living area and an inner tent height of 1.90 m (6′3″).
This tent is fitted with a fold-away basin-shaped groundsheet at the entrance in case of rain and a transparent shuttered window.

Putting up and taking down

Flysheet fabric offers UPF 30 sun protection.
Note: a significant amount of UV rays can pass through an open door.

Sun protection

The ventilated flysheet over the living area airs the room and reduces condensation inside the tent. High ventilation hatches are also provided at the front and back of the tent, along with high mosquito nets on the door and at the back of the bedrooms.

Ventilation

We test all our tents in a wind tunnel on a turntable. The aim is to expose each side of our tent to the same wind intensity.
Properly pitched with the guy ropes deployed, this tent remains habitable in Force 6 winds, measured at 50 km/h (31 mph).

Wind resistance

Our tents are tested to validate their waterproofing. The first test is carried out in the laboratory: 4 hours under 200 L of water/hour/m² (equivalent to a tropical rain shower of 200 mm/hour). The second test is done in the field in real-life conditions. This tent is fitted with a 2,000 mm polyurethane-coated polyester flysheet. The seams have been waterproofed with heat-sealed strips, and the tent has a 140 g/m² polyethylene groundsheet.
