This tent is the mutha f'in king man! The first time I used it was a trip to the desert for a land sailing event. While we were setting it up people told us tents come to the playa to die. 70 mph recorded winds and this thing barely moved. It already saved me 3 days hotel when another tent would have been shredded. Good thing it's rock solid because it's expensive as hell. When I was hiding in it avoid being sandblasted it seemed like one of the best investments I've ever made. Sell your kidney and get one, you'll never look back! I have some real world pics, here's one:
