Ultra-Lightweight Tent – STATION13 Skylar Tent. 1 Person – 3 Season – Ultra-Lightweight Backpacking Tent – Just 780g! The Skylar is our latest and lightest one person tent. This tent is aimed primarily at solo backpackers who seriously want to travel light. Weighing in at just 780 grams, our Skylar tent is an extremely lightweight, functional, waterproof shelter. Just 780 grams in weight! Requires one trekking/walking pole. 3000mm HH silicone-coated, UV protected, 20D ripstop nylon flysheet. 3000mm HH silicone-coated 20D ripstop nylon bathtub floor. Full high density nylon no-see-um bug mesh inner tent. Small pack size: 30cm x 12cm. The weights break down as follows. Inner tent: 327 grams. Aluminium alloy tent pole: 40 grams. Superlite 5g Titanium Hook Tent Pegs (x 11): 55 grams. Guylines (x 6): 37 grams. Tent bag, peg bag: 21 grams. Total Skylar tent weight with Superlite 5g Titanium Hook Tent Pegs: 780 grams. Contents: 1 flysheet, 1 mesh inner tent, 1 three-piece short tent pole, 11 tent pegs, 6 guylines with Line-Lok tensioners. Our Skylar tent is an ultra-lightweight, one person tent for use when weight is absolutely top priority. Note: this tent requires one trekking/walking pole to erect (not included). The pocket that the walking pole is inserted into is only designed for standard upright hand grips, so walking poles with horizontal grips or Pacer Poles, will not fit into the pocket. We have had the Skylar manufactured to our specifications, and tweaked and fine-tuned to be as practical and user friendly as possible. We would describe the Skylar as a summer, 2/3 season tent due to its all bug mesh inner tent, and its certainly not a tent you would want to be camping in during the winter months. That said, the silicone-coated flysheet with its 3000mm HH will hold off all the weather the UK summer months can throw at it. The Skylar employs a small alloy pole to hold up the foot end of the tent, and one walking pole is required to hold up the head end. If you walk or hike with poles, and an ultra-lightweight tent is a necessity, then our Skylar tent could be just the thing for you. The Skylar features one large side entrance. The Skylar is a true double skin tent, with an inner nylon bug-mesh tent that can be used without the outer flysheet should conditions warrant it, i. On those very hot, balmy summer nights. Ventilation is provided by a high air vent at the head end of the tent along with a low air vent at the foot end to allow air flow and help reduce condensation. With a tent this small and this lightweight, there will always be compromises, so similar to our Whisper tent, this is a no frills, no bells and whistles tent. All the emphasis being on weight or indeed, lack thereof. This tent is all about being ultra-lightweight! Space inside the tent is enough for one person, and there is a vestibule with space enough for a pack and boots. The floor size is 200cm in length and 80cm at its widest point, going down to 50cm at the foot end. A standard sleeping pad/mat with a tapered foot end will just fit. The Skylar is 105cm high internally at its apex, and at its widest the vestibule space is 50cm. In order to keep the weight of the tent down to a minimum the outer flysheet shares 5 pegging points with the inner tent floor. The Skylar really is a specialist tent for the experienced backpacker who understands the compromises that need to be made in order to achieve the lightest possible weight. And indeed in order to achieve such a light weight, the tent has to be small and compact, and while our Skylar serves its purpose adequately in that it is a perfectly waterproof shelter to sleep in, internal space is at a premium. So, if you are over 6ft or have a large frame and like a spacious tent with room to move about and stretch your arms out, then this tent is really not for you. Perhaps look at our much roomier 1.3 kg Whisper tent instead. I should also add that this tent can be a little tricky to pitch just right, not least because the inner tent and flysheet share 5 pegging points. The flysheet pegging points are on guyline runners, so adjustable, but a little patience is required to get tensions just right in order to have a nice taut outer flysheet without the inner sagging too much, which is one reason why would suggest that this is a tent for the more experienced camper. If however you are looking to move up from the confines of a bivvy bag, then our Skylar tent could be absolutely ideal as, though its a small and compact tent, it still provides far more space than any bivvy bag can, and for very little (if any) weight increase. The Skylar is yet another lightweight solo tent to complement our other one and two person tents, with the main priority of this tent being its ultra-lightweight. The nylon bug mesh inner tent is erected first, with the short bottom pole located in its dedicated top and bottom metal eyelets, and with a walking pole inserted into the pocket at the apex we suggest an initial height of 125cm. Ground level to top of handle. Two of the guylines are required to hold up the inner tent at this point – one at the foot end, the other attached to the strap below the walking pole pocket at the head end. The outer flysheet is then draped over the inner tent and pegged out accordingly, with five of the pegging points doubling up with the inner tent floor pegging points. Additional flysheet guylines are attached and also pegged out to provide a nice taut shape. In line with our other tents, the Skylar’s seams are double-stitched and tape sealed. The Skylar is not free-standing – that is, it requires pegging out to remain upright, so would not be suitable for pitching on rocky terrain. The tent comes with six guylines with nice Line-Lok guyline tensioners for ease of use. Two guylines are for holding erect the inner tent, with an additional four guylines for the flysheet. With its extremely small pack size and ultra-light weight, we feel that the Skylar will make a great solo tent for any backpacker whose number one priority is to reduce the overall weight of their pack. Is a small family run business and as such our good name and indeed our reputation is very important to us.

Ultralight Backpacking Tent – GeerTop PYRAMID 1.2kg. 1 Person, 3 Season, High Quality, High Performance, Ultralight Backpacking Tent & Aluminium Walking Poles. Flysheet: 20D 360T silicone-coated, ripstop PU nylon with taped seams + UV protection – hydrostatic head: 3000mm. Inner tent: Fine nylon no-see-um bug mesh. Bathtub floor: 55D PU waterproof polyester – hydrostatic head: 5000mm. 16 x Aluminium alloy tent pegs + 6 x guylines. Weight: 1.2 kgs. Pack size: 38cm x 11cm. The PYRAMID is an ultralight tent weighing in at just 1.2 kg. The great difference between the PYRAMID tent and the other tents that we supply is the fact that the PYRAMID tent has no dedicated tent poles and is designed to be used with walking. This does mean that the PYRAMID tent, without any tent poles, provides a substantially smaller, lighter package not much larger than a bottle of wine. The PYRAMID employs a flysheet of 20D 360T silicone-coated ripstop PU nylon with fully taped seams and a hydrostatic head of 3000mm. The sewn-in bathtub floor employs a 55D PU-coated, waterproof polyester with a hydrostatic head of 5000mm. The PYRAMID tent comes with no less than 16 very nice, anodised V-section aluminium tent pegs (similar to those used by Hilleberg tents) and 6 guylines. This ultralight backpacking tent is available with or without walking poles, this listing includes a pair of aluminium alloy walking poles (see our other listings for the tent without walking poles). The tent weight breaks down in the following way. Outer flysheet: 498 grams. Inner tent: 464 grams. 16 x Aluminium tent pegs and 6 x guylines: 216 grams. Total: 1.17 kgs. Total with the carry bags: 1.22 kgs. PYRAMID Tent with Aluminium Tent Pegs and 2 x Aluminium Alloy Walking Poles. The standard V-section aluminium tent pegs weigh 10 grams each, whereas the 150mm x 3mm Superlite titanium hook tent pegs weigh just 5 grams each. I should just add though that, unlike the standard, cheap and nasty tent pegs packed with many small tents, the V-section aluminium tent pegs that come with our PYRAMID tent are themselves of a very high quality. Note: All modern lightweight tents feature a lightweight flooring fabric, and though it can be made extremely waterproof, it is less resilient, hence potentially more susceptible to damage by sharp implements – thorns, stones, etc. Than the thicker, heavier materials employed by tents of old. I always use my polythene emergency survival bag as an additional groundsheet, and for this purpose it works extremely well. However if I did not have this, for peace of mind, I would surely employ an additional lightweight groundsheet for the extra protection it would offer to my lightweight tent floor. COMES WITH A PAIR OF QUALITY ALUMINIUM ALLOY WALKING POLES (please note colour of walking poles may differ from that shown depending on stock). Strong and light – made from aviation grade 6061-T6 aluminium alloy Fully extendable from 63cm – 135cm 3 section twist-lock action Comfortable ergonomic rubber composite handle with wrist strap Weight: 300 grams (each) Hard wearing tungsten carbide tip Anti-shock mechanism (can be locked off) Complete with rubber foot and soft ground/mud basket Colour: (colours may vary to that shown depending on stock). The rubber composite handles are ergonomically designed to provide long-term comfort. The walking poles also come with a built-in anti-shock mechanism that can be locked off internally if required. STATION13 Review – GeerTop PYRAMID. If you usually backpack and hike with walking poles, then the big plus with the PYRAMID tent is that there is a substantial weight-saving to be had from using walking poles as tent poles. The one person PYRAMID tent has the same 210cm x 90cm floor plan as our Glencoe 1 tents that we also supply, however it does feel somewhat less spacious inside due to the shallow sloping sides resulting from effectively the simple A-frame set up. T he floor length is just OK for myself at 5’11″ but due to the shallower angle of the sides, the PYRAMID tent may feel a little short for anyone over 5’10″, more so if you use a very thick inflatable mattress. Cause of the shallower sloping sides of the PYRAMID tent w e thought that there could potentially be a problem with the head and feet of taller people pushing the inner tent onto the flysheet when lying down, however while the feet of taller people might push into the inner tent, the great amount of space between the inner tent and the flysheet near ground level means that the two are very unlikely to actually touch. But please do bear in mind that the characteristic triangular cross section of the inner tent means that the mesh fabric is closer to your face than our Glencoe 1 inner tent when lying down. The PYRAMID is a specialist lightweight tent that will not suit everyone, and will certainly be more problematic for taller people. The inner tent height at its highest point in the middle is 105cm. Apart from the 55D PU-coated polyester bathtub floor, the inner tent is made completely from fine, high density no-see-um bug mesh. The all mesh inner tent will mean that this tent will be potentially colder and draughtier than tents such as our Glencoe 1 tent that features a full polyester inner – something worth bearing in mind if you intend to use the tent in colder months or tend to sleep cold yourself. All seams are taped to provide a fully waterproof seal at the stitching. All seams are double-stitched and reinforced with box stitching at any potential stress points. There are pitching instructions sewn into the compression stuff sack. Two walking poles are required to erect this tent, that said, the flysheet or the inner tent can be used independently if required, and if using the flysheet on its own, then either one or two walking poles can be used. This tent is a specialist one person tent for people wanting a high quality, high performance ultralight tent that is not only incredibly practical, but light enough to carry for hours on end when backpacking. Please note that this tent is aimed primarily at experienced backpackers who want – or need – to shave off the grams, and may not be particularly suitable for novice or first time backpackers. This tent may be of particular interest for anyone considering moving up from the confines of a bivvy bag. A good Goretex, breathable bivvy bag will weigh around the 850 gram mark and probably set you back a small fortune. For around an extra 300 grams weight penalty you could have the relative luxury of a tent. Granted, the weight of walking poles do have to be taken into consideration, but if you do already walk with poles then this point is moot. Erecting the PYRAMID tent. Initially we only connected the two side guylines, and even with just the two pegged out, the tent seemed very stable, we couldn’t imagine the tent going anywhere very fast if you pegged out all six guylines and 16 tent pegs! The two air vents on the side of the flysheet are both held open by the side guylines. We played about a little with this until we realised that you can close up the vent by simply running the guyline attached to the top of the vent through the loop on the lower vent material (though with a little thought and improvisation other methods could easily be used). When we only had the two side guylines pegged out we found that the lower material of the air vents sagged very close or even onto the mesh inner tent, which we did not like at all and indeed this did concern us. However, this rectified itself immediately once we had attached and pegged out the remaining four corner guylines. This naturally pulled taut the lower air vent material and instantly resolved the issue. With our walking poles set at 120cm length (top of the pole handles to the cup above the spike) the PYRAMID is quick and easy to set up. If you don’t know where the 120cm setting is on your walking poles, we would suggest marking them to take away any guesswork and making setting up quicker. This does two things: firstly it tensions the inner tent a little more, and secondly it slightly raises the flysheet from the ground, which when pegged evenly allows for better ventilation. But this is something that you can adjust to suit yourself and indeed weather conditions. Please note that the manufacturers have now updated this tent to feature two main entrances, however, this also added 250 grams to the total gross weight. So, as we see no real necessity for two large entrances. On this particular one person tent, we opted for the original one entrance, lighter flysheet. However, we did also opt for the new version of the inner tent which features two doors and corner uprights on the bathtub floor which help raise the floor and better tension the inner tent. You are probably thinking,’Why two inner tent doors when there is only one flysheet entrance? Well, having two doors on the inner tent allows access to useful storage space underneath the flysheet on both sides – half the space of which would otherwise be inaccessible with only one inner tent door. The two storage areas combined provide enough space for a rucksack, boots, etc. The PYRAMID tent is quick and easy to erect, but we do recommend that you have a couple of practice pitches before you go off into the wild, just to get a feel for how the tent pegs out. With the four corners of the inner tent floor pegged out, the inner tent will self support once your walking pole handles have been located in their material sleeves at the top. It is then simply a matter of throwing over the flysheet and pegging out accordingly. We found it easier to rough peg initially, and then adjust each flysheet peg to provide a taut, nice even shape. This tent is also available with our Superlite 5g titanium hook tent pegs which would reduce the total weight by a further 80 grams if anyone feels the need to further lighten the load. See our other listing. This PYRAMID tent has grown on us the more we have used it – and we love it! The PYRAMID is a very well made and very versatile ultralight performance tent that is going to be a very hard to better in this weight/price range. Is a small family run business and as such our good name and indeed our reputation is very important to us.

Ultra-Lightweight Tent – STATION13 Skylar Tent. 1 Person – 3 Season – Ultra-Lightweight Backpacking Tent – Just 780g! The Skylar is our latest and lightest one person tent. This tent is aimed primarily at solo backpackers who seriously want to travel light. Weighing in at just 780 grams, our Skylar tent is an extremely lightweight, functional, waterproof shelter. Just 780 grams in weight! Requires one trekking/walking pole. 3000mm HH silicone-coated, UV protected, 20D ripstop nylon flysheet. 3000mm HH silicone-coated 20D ripstop nylon bathtub floor. Full high density nylon no-see-um bug mesh inner tent. Small pack size: 30cm x 12cm. The weights break down as follows. Inner tent: 327 grams. Aluminium alloy tent pole: 40 grams. Superlite 5g Classic Shepherd’s Crook Titanium Tent Pegs (x 11): 55 grams. Guylines (x 6): 37 grams. Tent bag, peg bag: 21 grams. Total Skylar tent weight with Superlite 5g Titanium Shepherd’s Crook Tent Pegs: 780 grams. Contents: 1 flysheet, 1 mesh inner tent, 1 three-piece short tent pole, 11 tent pegs, 6 guylines with Line-Lok tensioners. Our Skylar tent is an ultra-lightweight, one person tent for use when weight is absolutely top priority. Note: this tent requires one trekking/walking pole to erect (not included). The pocket that the walking pole is inserted into is only designed for standard upright hand grips, so walking poles with horizontal grips or Pacer Poles, will not fit into the pocket. We have had the Skylar manufactured to our specifications, and tweaked and fine-tuned to be as practical and user friendly as possible. We would describe the Skylar as a summer, 2/3 season tent due to its all bug mesh inner tent, and its certainly not a tent you would want to be camping in during the winter months. That said, the silicone-coated flysheet with its 3000mm HH will hold off all the weather the UK summer months can throw at it. The Skylar employs a small alloy pole to hold up the foot end of the tent, and one walking pole is required to hold up the head end. If you walk or hike with poles, and an ultra-lightweight tent is a necessity, then our Skylar tent could be just the thing for you. The Skylar features one large side entrance. The Skylar is a true double skin tent, with an inner nylon bug-mesh tent that can be used without the outer flysheet should conditions warrant it, i. On those very hot, balmy summer nights. Ventilation is provided by a high air vent at the head end of the tent along with a low air vent at the foot end to allow air flow and help reduce condensation. With a tent this small and this lightweight, there will always be compromises, so similar to our Whisper tent, this is a no frills, no bells and whistles tent. All the emphasis being on weight or indeed, lack thereof. This tent is all about being ultra-lightweight! Space inside the tent is enough for one person, and there is a vestibule with space enough for a pack and boots. The floor size is 200cm in length and 80cm at its widest point, going down to 50cm at the foot end. A standard sleeping pad/mat with a tapered foot end will just fit. The Skylar is 105cm high internally at its apex, and at its widest the vestibule space is 50cm. In order to keep the weight of the tent down to a minimum the outer flysheet shares 5 pegging points with the inner tent floor. The Skylar really is a specialist tent for the experienced backpacker who understands the compromises that need to be made in order to achieve the lightest possible weight. And indeed in order to achieve such a light weight, the tent has to be small and compact, and while our Skylar serves its purpose adequately in that it is a perfectly waterproof shelter to sleep in, internal space is at a premium. So, if you are over 6ft or have a large frame and like a spacious tent with room to move about and stretch your arms out, then this tent is really not for you. Perhaps look at our much roomier 1.3 kg Whisper tent instead. I should also add that this tent can be a little tricky to pitch just right, not least because the inner tent and flysheet share 5 pegging points. The flysheet pegging points are on guyline runners, so adjustable, but a little patience is required to get tensions just right in order to have a nice taut outer flysheet without the inner sagging too much, which is one reason why would suggest that this is a tent for the more experienced camper. If however you are looking to move up from the confines of a bivvy bag, then our Skylar tent could be absolutely ideal as, though its a small and compact tent, it still provides far more space than any bivvy bag can, and for very little (if any) weight increase. The Skylar is yet another lightweight solo tent to complement our other one and two person tents, with the main priority of this tent being its ultra-lightweight. The nylon bug mesh inner tent is erected first, with the short bottom pole located in its dedicated top and bottom metal eyelets, and with a walking pole inserted into the pocket at the apex we suggest an initial height of 125cm. Ground level to top of handle. Two of the guylines are required to hold up the inner tent at this point – one at the foot end, the other attached to the strap below the walking pole pocket at the head end. The outer flysheet is then draped over the inner tent and pegged out accordingly, with five of the pegging points doubling up with the inner tent floor pegging points. Additional flysheet guylines are attached and also pegged out to provide a nice taut shape. In line with our other tents, the Skylar’s seams are double-stitched and tape sealed. The Skylar is not free-standing – that is, it requires pegging out to remain upright, so would not be suitable for pitching on rocky terrain. The tent comes with six guylines with nice Line-Lok guyline tensioners for ease of use. Two guylines are for holding erect the inner tent, with an additional four guylines for the flysheet. With its extremely small pack size and ultra-light weight, we feel that the Skylar will make a great solo tent for any backpacker whose number one priority is to reduce the overall weight of their pack. Is a small family run business and as such our good name and indeed our reputation is very important to us.

Ultra-Lightweight Tent – STATION13 Skylar Tent. 1 Person – 3 Season – Ultra-Lightweight Backpacking Tent – Just 824g! The Skylar is our latest and lightest one person tent. This tent is aimed primarily at solo backpackers who seriously want to travel light. Weighing in at just 824 grams, our Skylar tent is an extremely lightweight, functional, waterproof shelter. Just 824 grams in weight! Requires one trekking/walking pole. 3000mm HH silicone-coated, UV protected, 20D ripstop nylon flysheet. 3000mm HH silicone-coated 20D ripstop nylon bathtub floor. Full high density nylon no-see-um bug mesh inner tent. Small pack size: 30cm x 12cm. The weights break down as follows. Inner tent: 327 grams. Aluminium alloy tent pole: 40 grams. Aluminium alloy Y-section tent pegs (x 11): 99 grams. Guylines (x 6): 37 grams. Tent bag, peg bag: 21 grams. Total Skylar tent weight with 9g aluminium Y-pegs: 824 grams. Contents: 1 flysheet, 1 mesh inner tent, 1 three-piece short tent pole, 11 tent pegs, 6 guylines with Line-Lok tensioners. Our Skylar tent is an ultra-lightweight one person tent for use when weight is absolutely top priority. Note: this tent requires one trekking/walking pole to erect (not included). The pocket that the walking pole is inserted into is only designed for standard upright hand grips, so walking poles with horizontal grips or Pacer Poles, will not fit into the pocket. We have had the Skylar manufactured to our specifications, and tweaked and fine-tuned to be as practical and user friendly as possible. We would describe the Skylar as a summer, 2/3 season tent due to its all bug mesh nylon inner tent, and its certainly not a tent you would want to be camping in during the winter months. That said, the nylon 20D silicone-coated flysheet with its 3000mm HH will hold off all the weather the UK summer months can throw at it. The Skylar employs a small alloy pole to hold up the foot end of the tent and one walking pole is required to hold up the head end. If you walk or hike with poles, and an ultra-lightweight tent is an absolute necessity, then our Skylar tent could be just the thing for you. The Skylar features one large side entrance. The Skylar is a true double skin tent, with an inner nylon bug-mesh tent that can be used without the outer flysheet should conditions warrant it, i. On those very hot, balmy summer nights. Ventilation is provided by a high air vent at the head end of the tent along with a low air vent at the foot end to allow air flow and help reduce condensation. With a tent this small and this lightweight, there will always be compromises, so similar to our Whisper tent, this is a no frills, no bells and whistles tent. All the emphasis being on weight or indeed, lack thereof. This tent is all about being ultra-lightweight! Space inside the tent is enough for one person, and there is a vestibule with space enough for a pack and boots. The floor size is 200cm in length and 80cm at its widest point, going down to 50cm at the foot end. A standard sleeping pad/mat with a tapered foot end will just fit. The Skylar is 105cm high internally at its apex, and at its widest the vestibule space is 50cm. In order to keep the weight of the tent down to a minimum the outer flysheet shares 5 pegging points with the inner tent floor. The Skylar is really is a specialist tent for the experienced backpacker who understands the compromises that need to be made in order to achieve the lightest possible weight. And indeed in order to achieve such a light weight, the tent has to be small and compact, and while our Skylar serves its purpose adequately in that it is a perfectly waterproof shelter to sleep in, internal space is at a premium. So, if you are over 6ft or have a large frame and like a spacious tent with room to move about and stretch your arms out, then this tent is really not for you. Perhaps look at our much roomier 1.3 kg Whisper tent instead. I should also add that this tent can be a little tricky to pitch just right, not least because the inner tent and flysheet share 5 pegging points. The flysheet pegging points are on guyline runners, so adjustable, but a little patience is required to get tensions just right in order to have a nice taut outer flysheet without the inner sagging too much, which is one reason why would suggest that this is a tent for the more experienced camper. If however you are looking to move up from the confines of a bivvy bag, then our Skylar tent could be absolutely ideal as, though its a small and compact tent, it still provides far more space than any bivvy bag can, and for very little (if any) weight increase. The Skylar is yet another lightweight solo tent to complement our other one and two person tents, with the main priority of this tent being its ultra-lightweight. The nylon bug mesh inner tent is erected first, with the short bottom pole located in its dedicated top and bottom metal eyelets, and with a walking pole inserted into the pocket at the apex (we suggest an initial height of 125cm – ground level to top of handle). Two of the guylines are required to hold up the inner tent at this point – one at the foot end, the other attached to the strap below the walking pole pocket at the head end. The outer flysheet is then draped over the inner tent and pegged out accordingly, with five of the pegging points doubling up with the inner tent floor pegging points. Additional flysheet guylines are attached and also pegged out to provide a nice taut shape. In line with our other tents, the Skylar’s seams are double-stitched and tape sealed.
