Check out the new Lunar Solo and Europa ’05. They look like really solid designs. Now if I could only decide between them and Tarptents……
Feb 24, 2005 at 8:36 am #1335883The products look good to me.
It looks like RM did some tweaking in the Lunar Solo (increased space, full Velcro on vestibule plus vent, higher peak, and bathtub floor. He managed to do all this and still keep the weight at 24oz/28oz.
The 05 Europa 2 gets and update too and there is a new pack called the Comet.
It look likes Ron and Henry are battling it out to make the coolest UL shelters in the world. They seem to one up each other with each new design. There is nothing like a little friendly competition which leads to design innovations which then benefits us the user.

Feature upgrades include a bathtub floor, taller mesh around the perimeter, a bit more room inside and a bit more headroom, plus a full length velcro fastner for the vestibule and an exhaust vent up top.
I spoke with Ron recently about the new Lunar Solo and it should be available toward the end of March. The only question now for me is.. which color?
