Posted at Whiteblaze was a brief discussion about a couple of tents from Hong Kong:

both the Rocket and the Mini Peak have tremendous potential as light weight shelters if only some local manufacturers adopt these designs with sil-nylon, or if the Hong Kong would sell them here.
Hi, that was me
The Mini Peak II is the result of my criticism , following a test run, of the Mini Peak. There are several modification implemented that I suggested to Michael and within two months he had the new version out. (no, I don't get paid for this)
Luxe will upgrade the design and finish of all of their range, including using silnylon , next year.
I will have a prototype of the X-Rocket mid June.
No, I have not discussed that design with Henry, I keep my various interests separate.(someone asked..)
Michael Wong has sold a large number of the Habitat ( a "tribute" to the Hubba Hubba) to an American brand, I have not spotted that one for sale as yet. (let me know if you see it)
The Aussie importer of Luxe, Tim Campbell a mate of mine, will be pleased to sell you any of their products. He also sells Montane.
BTW, I am not particularly fond of the poncho/tarp thing, I am happy with my Montane /Contrail combo, but I think that the X-Rocket has a lot of potential and some of you will like it. I will post some pictures when I get it.
