Great video mate, I recently got one of these tents and nice to see how it's meant to be pitched. Cheers

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

They are a cracking tent , enjoy it and thanks for watching 👍

Helpful information on how to easy setup this tent thanks for sharing

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Thanks for watching and glad it help out 👍

[@user-og3nw6bz9k]

thanks for the tips!

[@KernowCamps]

Looks great meht. Gonna have to replicate your mods. Already have the pegs and cord (sorry, no sale this time). Will let you know how it goes

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Cheers matey ! No worries just trying to help people out , cracking tent love it !

Watching this in preparation for using mine potentially this weekend!! I know mine isn’t a pro but I’m excited!!

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Looks like I ironed the floor 🤣🤣🤣

[@ksgonewild]

@@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301 it looked pretty amazing!! I still need to seam seal and swap the door hooks which I’m hoping to do tomorrow after work.

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Finally some decent weather !!!

[@frankiethefrank]

@@ksgonewild Can you tell me about swapping out the door hooks? I don't quite know what I should do. I used my Lanshan 2 (not pro) for the first time last week and it was pretty good but it did leave me cursing the damn door hook system.

[@ksgonewild]

@@frankiethefrank ahhh yes I struggled a bit, wish I’d done a little vid now!! So if you undo the end knot and remove the bottom line lock then you feed the end through the little line lock on the metal rams horn hook and you should be good to go….. easier to demonstrate than explain. 🙃

[@explorewithlloydi]

the setup of that looked way too easy. really enjoyed this

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Few little changes make it much easier to setup , thanks for watching 👍

[@willisblevins3759]

Nice one thanks

[@camperlists7090]

great use video

[@IzettaHudgins]

The metal claw hooks you offer are great customizations!

[@millgate]

I've done the same but actually with 2 more pegs you can have the doors separate and put them much lower incase the weather turns.

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Nice ! Just be careful as we have had a tent completely fail on the edge of the reinforcement

[@JRoss707]

No doubt it’s an awesome looking setup, but golly 12+ pegs is adding a bit more weight and some setup time. I can see this is a cool modification for a weekend wild camping trip, but for UL through hike I’m looking to get as minimalist as possible. I do like the separate lines for the doors and the top of the trekking pole tie outs. The default configuration is a pain.

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Just got some new pegs in my online store just 3.6 g each if I fancy some ultralight gear ! Cheers for watching Col

Have you seen the mod to make it freestanding? It has a pair of cross poles on each side for the tent. Seems interesting

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

I have very nifty but you might as well buy a proper freestanding tent

[@benhikescamps]

Hi Col! Hope you’re good. Quick question… What needs to change bungee mod-wise on the standard Lanshan 2 compared to the Pro. I did these footprint and tent bungee mods on my Pro a while back and worked great. Thinking about the standard Lanshan 2 though. Cheers! Ben

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Hiya mate all good cheers , it’s just the footprint bungee wants to be the same length as the bathtub bungee , they are the same size so do 20cm lengths looped for both , any probs give us a shout Atb Col

[@benhikescamps]

@@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301 ah ok great mate. What if I use my Lanshan 2 Pro footprint with the standard Lanshan 2? Still same length of bungees for everything? Thanks again.

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

@@benhikescamps will work ok 👍

[@Quickmooch]

Just brought the shock cord to this with the 2 not the pro. Do you know the correct lengths? avoiding doing the mod right away due to a trip coming up where I might need to use the big rock little rock technique to pitch

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

You need 30cm lengths for bathtub and footprint in 3mm shock cord so 2.4 m total cheers for watching Atb Col

[@GusExplores]

I have not had my lanshan 2 out for ages and I can't mind how it gets set up normally without dragging it out. For your mod you used 4 pegs on the bath tub but where did the other extra pegs go?

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

On the side guylines, they need to be pulled out a horizontal as possible with a separate peg on the end of the Flysheet, cheers for watching Atb Col

[@NoviceWildCamper]

Lovely pitch col. Sure you didnt iron the bathtub first? 🤣👍

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

The irons just out of sight !!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@NMCD0892]

Hi Colin, just confirming 20cm shockcord on footprint and 30cm on bathtub for the 2 pro?

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Other way round as the footprint is slightly smaller 👍

[@WildCamping_1]

That’s a perfect pitch thanks for the information can’t wait to get mine next month and mod it 👍🏼🏕️🏔️

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

Many thanks for watching 👍

[@eddysuyachmir2244]

May I ask what type of footprint you use as they dont offer anything on the company website. Thanks

Why not replace the rope with same size (or a big shorter) bungy cord? Then u can use the same peg.

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

You can but the bath tub lifts up up due to the longer length

[@mauricewal]

@@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301 yes you are right. I will just add bungy to the groundsheet.

@@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301 its a great tent. Did you found a way to get the mesh attached to the bathtub more 90 degrees? Now condensation rolls off the tent and it should be going through the mesh outside the tent but it's just rolling inside tie bathtub. (hope you know what I mean

[@southcoastoutdoorsuk6301]

@@mauricewal the mesh should be vertical above the bathtub , to vent the tent easier , condensation will unfortunately be present in certain conditions

I'd say not very good festival tent because guide ropes hold up the whole thing.

Its more backpacking/ hiking tent , want a cheapie for a festival

Why would you buy an UL backpacking tent for a festival lol?
