In excellent condition, includes liner, tyvek ground sheet, and extra fly stakes (all three of these items are additional accessories if bought new). Also includes stuff sack and stakes that come with the tent. Weighs 2lb 15oz with the 6 stakes, liner, and stuff sack. The tyvek ground sheet and the two extra 8 stakes (not necessary for setup) add 7oz. REVIEW FROM OUTDOOR GEAR LAB – HIGHLIGHTS. Receiving much fanfare and praise in the last few years, we have definitely seen the Double Rainbow and its Tarptent sisters on the trails a lot more lately. This spring was a chance to get out once again and re-evaluate the Double Rainbow head-to-head with its backpacking tent competitors. It is a good value for a durable, extremely comfortable, lightweight shelter but it is not without its flaws. We think that its set-up is more finicky than it first appears, and are disappointed with how much condensation it accumulates on the interior. Make sure you order it with plenty of lead time as it comes from a small company that can only produce so many at once but we didn’t have to wait for our order any longer than from a big retailer this year. Comfort We were pleasantly surprised how comfortable this tent is for its weight – it earned a 7 out of 10 for comfort. It has the highest space-to-weight ratio of all the tents in this review. We like its non-tapered rectangular floor plan and double door/vestibule construction. The 30.5 sq. Of interior floor space, two 7.5 sq. Vestibules, and an impressive 43-inch peak height give two people enough space to enter easily and to sit up comfortably. At first glance, the Double Rainbow appears very easy to set-up just feed the one pole through the sleeve and stake out the corners and doors, right? We highly recommend reading the instructions before setting up your Double Rainbow. You do the things we mentioned, but you also have to tweak and clip the Tarptent to make sure that it will, in fact, be weather resistant. We made the mistake of not clipping the corner clips to the stake cords, and not clipping up the bathtub floor on the inside, and came back to our tent with pools of water in it after a rain storm. You are able to pitch the Tarptent in “self-supporting mode” by inserting two trekking poles into sleeves at either end. This feature is useful in rocky areas where it’s difficult to insert stakes or where there aren’t rocks or logs to substitute stakes. However, our testers rarely used this feature. We also like the way the Double Rainbow’s vestibule awnings can be configured. Weight and Packed Size The Double Rainbow weighs in at 2 pounds, 15 ounces, and is one of the lightest tents in our review.

Medieval Slantwall Pavillion White canvas square with awning SCA Tent SALE

Medieval Slantwall Pavillion White canvas square with awning SCA Tent SALE



Slant-wall square tent in white 13 ounce cotton canvas water-repellent. Has an attached awning, and door overlap with double ties. All grommets are HAND SEWN super strong and won’t come loose. 10×10 at the base, and 8×8 at the eves. We have made a few minor mods to make these even stronger, including INDESTRUCTABLE grommets. With 3/8in pin in end. There are basically 5 HAND SEWN grommets per side so you can customize it for whatever you want to do. Some people make permanent frames from wood and you would just use bolts or rope to tie the tent to that. Generally it is set up with 3 poles per side, one rope per pole except the corners were it is 2, and 1 rope per awning pole. Poles are usually made from something like 2×3′s (available in 8ft lengths at lumber yards), with a 3/8in rod in the end, cut from 3/8 rod stock also available at home centers. 18 tent pegs or stakes 12 inch landscape spikes work great (all home centers have these). 1 center pole 10ft with 3/8in pin in end You can use wood, or threaded plumbing pipe if you need to take it apart. They sell floor flange plates at home centers to add to the top and bottom of plumbing pipe. Black iron looks better than galvanized. 9-15 ropes 8-11ft long with sliders. Tent is pretty stable before you add the ropes, but looks all saggy, so basically they just hold the tent tight so it looks good. The canvas is water-repellent but not fire-retardant. These tents have no floors but you can make one easy by putting down a poly tarp with an inexpensive painting tarp over it (home center).
