Very informative vid with loads of good tips! I'm a new subscriber and looking at wild camping on Anglesey woodlands. Can't decide on which tent at the moment but do fancy a 2 man tent even though I'll be solo. Reason being the extra room. I'm 6 2 and find a lot of solo tents too small. The other thing I can't decide on is whether or not I need an inner tent for condensation etc. I love the Baker style of tent for their ability for you to sit and relax after a long hike. I do plan to camp in winter!!! Call me mad but Winter seems a real challenge.Maybe I could pitch a solo inside a Baker? Thanks again Andy.

Loved your comment, its always nice to hear from people just starting out and already thinking about there own particular needs of the style of tent they are looking for. At your height, and im presuming, a large amount of muscle to go with it, this tent would be ideal for you. The weight is also of a back pack kinda range, but nowadays im tending to go more and more light weight. Thank you for watching and your comment Atb Andy.

Excellent review. Actually one of the best I've seen. Like the way you mentioned motorcycles because of the weight. Loved the clear still shots of small but important points. Loved your willingness to start with useful improvements and modifications straight away instead of helplessly bleating about it. BTW, although I'm good with a needle and thread, I often use contact adhesive on jobs like this. Immensely strong if done properly.

Great review. You can buy tarp clips that you could use rather than sewing webbing onto the tent as an alternative.
