Just checked the MLD website and the Superfly has been pulled from it … ???
SJun 18, 2008 at 12:00 pm #1438916AnonymousInactiveSven, I too am interested in why these products are not available. You might receive better response if this inquiry were posted in the "Gear" forum.
Jun 18, 2008 at 12:07 pm #1438919Hm … you are right. My bad.
S.Jun 18, 2008 at 12:12 pm #1438920The Revelation isn't listed any longer as well. Methinks it probably has to do with the spinnaker shortage Ron has been dealing with. Currently, all of the spinnaker-only items aren't available for purchase. Can't say for sure why he pulled the Superfly and Revelation off the site but I would definitely suspect they aren't discontinued.

I did notice this shelter missing on the MLD site, I would think (guess) it is a demand issue, or lack there of. I hope I'm wrong, I've used the MSR Twin Sisters shelter for winter conditions and was hoping to give the MLD Superfly a try this coming fall. The two shelters are very similer in design but the MLD would cut the weight by over half. Maybe I will be able to talk Ron into building one for me if the shelter is gone from the lineup for good, I can hope.Jun 18, 2008 at 3:26 pm #1438961Spinnaker Shortage- may be available later in the Summer/Fall…..
Jun 18, 2008 at 5:04 pm #1438984Hey Ron, Would you reccomend a ground cloth under the Serenity shelter? The reason I ask is because I way 235 lbs and I am doing 10 day trek with it. Is my weight a facter in possible wear and tear. I know to preen and clean my sleeping spot. Thanks-Insight?
