I am considering this tent along with the MSR hubba Hubba, Marmot Aura 2 person, and the Mountain Hardware skyledge 2.1 2 person. I want a very stable tent in the wind will this one hold up or is one of the others better in the wind. What one of these tents has the most living space? Thanks, Eli

In comparison to: MSR Hubba Hubba: MSR is about the same stability in the wind, and is the same living space roughly (CS is a bit longer if you're tall). Heavier. Aura 2: Very stable tent, probably the best in the wind out of the 4. Roughly the same living space. Heaviest. Skyledge 2.1: About the same in the wind, same as Hubba Hubba. Same living space, maybe a bit tighter. Light. My only question with the tents (beside this one) is if they have too much mesh. I wonder if a wind was to come along up under the rain fly and just blow right through, chilling you. I have this tent, and have really enjoyed it. The tent is quite spacious, vestibules give good room, and when I fully stake it out, it has held up to the elements without problem.
