Must.... Resist.... Tent......
Previous holder of the Guinness World Record for the lightest tent in the world, now held by our Laser Photon, the Laser Competition is still one of the lightest tents available.
With a minimum weight of just 860g the Laser Competition has been a firm favourite for Adventure Races, Mountain Marathons and Ultra Light Backpacking. When used with the complementary waterproof hood the Laser Competition is guaranteed waterproof and has withstood extremely rough weather, including Scottish winters.
Exceptional comfort for 1 person yet there is space for 2 (if you're good friends). The Laser Competition pitches flysheet first and the inner can be left connected, so it is exceptional quick to erect. The transverse porch creates more usable space than a longitudinal porch and provides excellent shelter from the wind as well as a large entrance.
Product code: 783101

How true... after watching Matthews snap like a twig at Loughshannagh it would appear they definitely don't last long ;D
Just teasing... :P

Ha ha, good point though. The pole I had was defective even terra nova admitted so when I returned it to them. On the flip side to that their service in repairing the tent and the speed at which it was done was fantastic.
Only thing I would say is that the pegs, if you can call them that which are supplied with the tent are useless.
