Three videos showing the various options you have using this pyramid tent. To ensure I have communicated the right weights for the various options, I have detailed these below.
Option 1
Wickiup flysheet – 675g + Chinese Silnylon inner – 392g + pole – 322g= total of 1389g
the above using trekking poles linker (45g) instead of pole = total of 1112g
Option 2
Wickiup flysheet – 675g + Borah Gear Bivvy – 218g + pole – 322g= total of 1215g
the above using trekking poles linker (45g) instead of pole = total of 938g
Option 3
Wickiup flysheet – 675g + Wickiup inner – 880g + pole – 322g= total of 1877g
the above using trekking poles linker (45g) instead of pole = total of 1555g
First video shows the Wickiup 3 using silnylon inner from China. The inner cost £34 delivered to the UK. Inner can also be used with Trailstar
Second video shows option with Borah Gear Bivvy
Third video shows the full option with the Wickiup inner.
when it started to rain on vid 3, it looked like the inner was touching a very saggy outer. Overall, I didn’t like the look of this tent – lack of cooking area, lack of storage for wet gear. But thanks for the video
I didn’t guy out the sides as it started raining and I wanted to finish the video. You can can get good separation between the fly and the inner when pegged out. Taking the inner out as in video 1 & 2 shows that you have tons of space for cooking and storage of wet gear. I take your remarks and maybe I will redo the video.
Do you have a link for the Chinese inner. Tried to search alibaba, but lost the will to live!
Cheers
Hi, sorry for the delay I have been away on a business trip for a few days.

Hi Mark after you completed the seam seal does it still leak?
No it looks like it fixed it.
