Well I've been sceptical that the X Dome wouldn't be able to handle moderate winds, it's all well and good take a weight on the top but 30+ gusts from the side... ? Well its been well and truly proven its a solid 3+ season tent, especially when the solid inner version come out. A guy took it into the mountains in the Lake District (uk) and put it through its paces in 30-40mph and driving snow. I'm so pleased to be proven wrong or at least had it proven to me i can trust the X Dome. Superb.

Genuinely this is the perfect tent for me. Bikepacking I require a space inside for my bags, but a 2 person tent is too big. I have the TN pioneer 2 currently which I love, but I think this beats it hands down. Lighter, smaller pack and cheaper. Bigger vestibule too. Perfect tent. Living in the UK I must have an outer first pitch as I camp in all weathers including torrential downpours. Love it

You’re a f*cking genius Dan. This is an incredible design. Kudos man, well done. For those wondering, the “best” 1p fully freestanding tent - the Nemo Dragonfly Osmo - comparing packed weights (with stakes, bags, etc.) this is about 5.5oz lighter, and looks loads roomier, more headroom (2”), more stormworthy, and is fly first pitch. And this is $60 less. I don’t even need this tent, I do pretty well the X-Mid even in rocky/beachy conditions, but I might just have to pick one for the bougie solo treks. Thanks for being a true innovator in a world where “innovation” amounts to using thinner fabrics to cut weight on basic designs. 👏🏻👏🏻

This tent is perfect for hiking guides and outdoor instructors. Having a one person tent that has a little bit more space, can be set up from the outside because you will hike in the rain with clients and have trekking pole supports when using it in exposed windy/winter conditions along with the door not dripping down on the inside of the tent when opened. I just bought a new tent a few months ago (I couldn't wait any longer) but now you are making me want to buy a second tent

The specs at that price point relative to the competitors is super impressive, same goes for the other X-Mids. Would love to eventually see a bikepacking pole option eventually. Although my X-Mid started as a backpacking tent, motorcycle camping has taken over my free time. But the tent just came out and I'm sure those things will come with time. I'll likely sell my X-Mid 2p in favor of one of these when the time comes. Super impressive stuff.

This looks phenomenal with your usual excellent level of details the big tent makers don’t think of. I love my X-Mid 2 but setup can definitely be more work on rock slabs in the Southwest and gravel pits in the far north so I’ve been considering adding a small freestanding tent back to my lineup. This will be perfect for me and the extra space for my dog means I don’t need to get a 2p! It will be too late for my fall Southwest camping trips but can’t wait to put it to use this spring packrafting, backpacking, and bikepacking.

⁠@@LeavenotraceexpeditionsMost of the insulation comes from your sleep system anyways. The most important thing that distinguishes a 4 season tent from a 3 season tent is the sturdiness against rough weather and the ability to shed snow. Tbh, if you really want warmth from the tent, get some Mylar sheets and use those to insulate the tent. They work wonders.

@@smellybearc7411 “The most *important* thing that distinguishes a 4 season tent from a 3 season tent is the sturdiness against rough weather and the ability to shed snow” That’s only partly true, the main distinguishing features of a 4 season tent are a fly that reaches all the way to the ground and a solid inner. Which this tent has neither. While your insulating ground & top layers will do an adequate job at mitigating heat loss through convection; cold drafts in extreme low temperatures can quickly tank your body temperature, there’s no way I’d take this tent into extreme low temps, the wind would cut right through it. It’s a solid tent don’t get me wrong but it would definitely rest in the 3+ season category. Look to the likes of the Hilleberg Suolo if you want to see what a true 4 season tent looks like.

Interesting design, and I really do appreciate the fly first/outer+inner pitch as they are not very common in North America (they are however very common in the EU). I also noticed the center low peg loops, which are nice for pulling the outer further out and up for more airflow. Some criticisms: While your bottle test does give a vague idea as to how it would handle snow loading (and it is kind of unfair using trekking poles in that test as you are comparing to a tent that does not have them), it really does not give any indication as to how it would handle wind loading as that force pushes the tent over and down flattening the facing side and breaking the back poles. A real test would be how it handles wind load (and it's failure point) using a wind machine with and without the trekking poles. Crossing twin poles rather than Y joints would also make the tent even stronger for a slight increase in weight (that and single poles are so much easier to work with and less likely to break than Y joints). Otherwise looks like a good lightweight tent, though for me I have more interest in the 2p version for a (I presume) second door, second vestibule, and increased through ventilation.

The bottle test is without the trekking pole supports, so it is a fair test. The X-Dome can do triple without the pole supports. But yes I agree with you that it is only one type of load and other circumstances can be different. The corner guylines help a lot and trekking pole help a lot if you are in severe winds. With the poleset design, we upsize the spine portion that is just one arch, so it uses larger tubing to achieve similar strength as dual arch but at a lower weight. Cheers, Dan

After a few seasons of using trekking pole tents, what I kind of miss is having a trekking pole handy after my tent is set up, I often find myself in need of one to hike down a slope to get water or take an evening stroll. It doesn’t sound like a big deal but the older I get the more dependent upon the poles (or one pole, anyway) I tend to be. I really like the design and space.
