DETAILED FEATURES
FABRIC & MATERIALS
75D, 185T polyester fly, offering an upgraded balance of durability and lightweight performance. The enhanced denier count provides increased strength and resistance to wear, while the tightly woven fabric improves water resistance and overall weather protection.
Double-stitched & seam-sealed for maximum strength, ensuring durability where it matters most. To keep you dry, we also heat-seal the seams with a custom-developed tape, providing superior waterproofing and protection against the elements.
5000mm double-coated aqua rating for superior, long-lasting waterproof protection. The double coating ensures the minimum waterproofness is maintained over time, providing reliable durability even in heavy rain. This fabric has also been treated with a fire-retardent solution.
UPF 50+UV protection for added safety and comfort.
Heavy-duty PE floor fabric for exceptional durability, designed to withstand years of foot traffic.
No-See-Um-Mesh allows for ample air circulation while keeping even the smallest bugs out.
2-way skylight windows with clear PVC for added light and an inner privacy screen for comfort in all conditions.
Darkened, breathable inner for a cooler, darker tent by day and reduced condensation at night, ensuring a more comfortable sleep.
FRAME & STRUCTURE
Rapid Air Frame for easy inflation and pitching using the included hand pump with pressure gauge.
Triangle-shaped guy rope tensioners ensure a secure hold and prevent slipping.
Guy rope attachment for even tension distribution, providing enhanced stability and support.
Shock cords enhance stability and durability by absorbing movement and pressure in windy conditions, reducing the risk of damage while keeping the fly taut to prevent sagging.
SETUP & CONVENIENCE
Easy-Grip Zip-Pulls with a finger loop for effortless use, plus a quiet design that reduces noise in windy conditions.
Interior lantern hanging points for convinient in-tent lighting.
Door storage pockets for a tidy and convenient way to stow doors when fully opened.
Handy storage pockets around the door to easily locate items.
Hidden storage pockets are ideal for shoe storage.
Interior storage pockets for safe keeping of smaller items.
Power Cord Entry for easy RCD cable management on powered tent sites.
COMFORT & DURABILITY

Quality zips, ropes and poles; All our tents use heavy-duty coil zips, guy ropes and poles so you can be assured your tent will last for many years of exciting family camping holidays.
Advanced airflow system designed for New Zealand’s temperature extremes. Strategically placed vents maximize airflow during the day and can be closed at night to retain warmth for added comfort.
