Fantastic documentary. Indeed unusual footage and way of reviewing it in very realistic conditions and pointing out interesting details. film artwork combined with the valuable information and authentic experience is something what I rarely see in outdoor equipment reviews in general In that windy rainy place where the tent was finally ripped I was thinking why did you choose spot at the middle of the flat open field instead using something in Your surroundings as the natural protection from strong wind at least from on side, but it's not bad that we actually seen the tent being exposed to such harsh conditions at the end of the day... btw. it was basically invisible how is the tent repaired when you camped at the second place there is no visible trace of previous damage or repair works I'm considering to take The Two model and using it in combination with larger lightweight tarp as additional protection, at least in conditions as the strong rain or even snowy winter day.

The best review of a tent I've ever seen on youtube. Loved the shots from the inside, I have never seen it done so well. Amazing. I can just imagine how much work the filming of this took, and then the actual testing…thank you for the hard work! Now I know exactly what to expect and I'm thinking of ordering this tent for my summer hiking in Sweden below the tree line. For the harsher weather, I'm keeping my modded 1,3 kg Alpkit Ordos 2. It is a total pain to setup but has held up amazingly well during horrible wind and rain.

Hi Psychonaut I’m glad you’re appreciating my efforts to make a tent video. I don’t know the Alpkit tent … but I guess you’re motivated by the Ones weight. I think it will do very well in Sweden 🇸🇪 for summer hikes. Thanks again for your nice comment 😌

This is the best video/review of this tent I have seen so far! Very detailed and objective regarding its pros and cons. Judging from your review if you aren't going to subject the tent to very harsh weather conditions and are fine with a few compromises (which is most of us) to trade for or a very light weight and easy to set up shelter makes this tent something to strongly consider. Well done!

I wish I'd seen your review before I took this tent out on the trail! I had issues with water ingress in (not quite so) inclement weather. I didn't realise the tabs on the side of the tent were additional tie-outs, plus I was trying to save weight by not staking out the bathtub bottom so I'm definitely going tie on some elastic. Thank you for showing me how to use my tent! Great review, amazing delivery!

Owned this for a few years now. It suits very particular conditions. Warm outside tends to reduce the condensation issue but it has to be just right. Single skin will always open you up to condensation problems. Having had a wet sleeping bag just one time too many now, I am looking at other (unfortunately heavier) double skin options. My latest KZbin video profiled a OneTigris trekking pole tent and I must admit, it’ll now be my ‘go to’ tent. Thanks for a great video.

​@@hanskirk-hiking9697 Would be so interesting how similar ultralight 1 person tents like the SMD Lunar Solo, Tarptent ProTrail, X-Mid 1, and the cheap Lanshan 1 Pro deal with condensation and high winds. All of these are single wall and just a little bit heavier. Would any of these fare off better with condensation/wind in order to be worth the extra 1-200 grams? In any case, I have been obsessively watching these and your review is the best one I've seen - great humour and rational considerations that matter when dealing with a tent.

So it was that tie out and the winds gusts that tore the material??? So that's potentially a week spot in high winds?

Hi Rew Fisher yes the tie out point and the line was to tight - it’s better with some give.

Do you have an estimate of what the wind speed was during the storm? Also, which version do you have? I have the older version from 2019 and I am curious if the tent you show failing is the same version. Thanks!

Thank you for such a great video! I am thinking of getting this tent for hiking in the Rocky Mountains of the US, where it's usually dry. I knew it wasn't great in wind but it's nice to see just how much is too much. Currently I use the Big Agnes Fly Creek 1. Even though it's double-walled, it sags so much when wet that I get the condensation from the fly on me anyway. And when I take the fly off, water sprinkles inside the tent. I thought: if I'm getting wet anyway, why not just get a single-wall tent? Either way, I get a lot more condensation when camped on grass (rather than pine needles) so I have tried to stop doing that. Amazed at all the flat ground where you are... almost nothing is flat here!

Thanks Jpanosky - condensation is not nice - I was making the video on an island called Amager it is totally flat, and close to the coast and known for its windy conditions 💁

Good lord wind sucks! I love Gossamer Gear but I'm not real hip on the silnylon tents. Great design and weight but the material in bad weather is less than ideal. Great tent review though....thanks for the effort.

​@@hanskirk-hiking9697 actually my worst night out was in a duplex - at 12000 ft and wind beating my ass all night. It was unbelievably impressive that it didn't tear but mostly at the single guy line I had out front holding like the little engine that could. both my feet pressing against the front wall to kept it from collapsing ...and I think your wind was even worse. So much fun when you get home.

@@hanskirk-hiking9697 I imagine in a real big wind it could flap louder than nylon but for me it's very silk like....pretty soft. The price is crazy - I got in just under the last price increase but I like most that its just plain waterproof and holds non of it. no sag or stretch. Still can't get over how strong it was. Have a great hiking season. We're about to start heading to the mountains in California.

Another first class video Hans and perhaps the best I have seen of this tent in real world conditions! I was considering this tent but will stay with my BA Tiger Wall UL2 as my one person tent (1.1kg all in), mainly due to the fact it is extremely roomy, handles wind exceptionally well and has has little condensation issues (which are also the reasons you like the Copper Spur so much I guess?). I have also considered the Durston Gear X-Mid 1p but will have to wait until they release the DCF version next year. BTW - I tested the Tiger Wall in some really windy conditions with storm(ish) gusts along the coast - kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGLdeK1_pdaAr6s

To be honest I don't think you're using this tent in the conditions it was made for. Also people need to keep in mind that a 10D fabric really reduces the lifespan of any tent.
