Eric, you will have seen the OAC ski videos of telemarking in flip-flops? I kid you not – reality is catching up with you.

1:06Aug 1, 2018 at 5:25 am #3549354I agree with Skurka that the Carbon Tiger Wall II is the best looking tent of the new BA Dyneema offerings, however, he is wrong when he says that BA is the first wholesaler to produce DCF tents. Terra Nova has been putting out the Ultra shelters for at least 7 years now.
and I have pointed out that Brooks Range Mountaineering, Lightwave and Sierra Designs had one and Easton Mountain Products had 2.Aug 1, 2018 at 5:57 am #3549363There must surely be a book waiting to be written on the introduction of Dyneema to backpacking tents…

Cheers
Aug 1, 2018 at 6:46 am #3549366I had one of those Brooks-Range Rocket tents with the aluminized cuben. That was one warm, and very dark inside, shelter. That early aluminized cuben broke down pretty quickly though.
