Stan Pinguin Taifun 2

Product detailed description

With vestibules high enough and rigid construction the tent is suitable for tougher conditions.

The flysheet is made of Polyester with a polyurethane coating, giving a water column of 4,000 mm. Seams are fully taped to protect against leakage.

The groundsheet is made of laminated, Rip-Stop treated Polyethylene.

The poles are made up of laminate segments with a diameter of 8.5 mm (main poles) and 9.5 mm (vestibule support).

The tent is double-skinned consisting of an inner tent and flysheet. The inner tent has a rectangular floor plan with two entrances on its longer sides. The flysheet is octagonal and has two entrances with two vestibules, suitable for storing packs, etc.

There is a vent at the top of the flysheet dome. Vent covers are designed so that they are not affected by the wind and can be closed with Velcro fasteners if necessary. This prevents leaks during rain with strong winds.

The tent concept is based on the principle of a pole structure threaded through sleeves on the outside of the flysheet. The flysheet and inner tent (which is suspended under the flysheet) are erected at the same time after threading the poles through the sleeves. The advantage of this method is that the inner tent can be detached from the flysheet and the flysheet can then be erected separately. This creates a single-skin tent without a groundsheet.

Pitching the tent

Thread the poles through the sleeves on the outside of the flysheet and insert the ends of the poles into the brass eyelets on the straps on the lower edge of the flysheet. Then fasten the buckles on the straps near the ground inside the tent and the flysheet will stand. The inner tent is attached to the loops on the inside of the flysheet. Anchor the erected tent with pegs and guy ropes and tighten with the plastic buckles.
