An ultralight, spacious, quick to set up shelter with an innovative Zipfree fly access - just pull the cord to raise the door - no zip to snag or admit water. Long and wide allowing for an extra person if necessary.

Features

  • Large vestibule, easily accessed from inside Vela I, is large enough for all your gear. The door is easily raised to offer a view but still protects from the elements
  • Large floor plan is especially long and wide, making it possible to bring gear inside or to help out a stranded, second person
  • Ventilation is maximised in this storm proof design. The rainfly can be rolled up from either end, and both ends of the canopy have mesh windows. A hood protected vent enhances the chimney effect for venting. The foot end is aerodynamically shaped and can be completely tied down to face high winds. The head end features a mesh window.
  • Tie down loops attach directly to the pole sleeves for maximum stability in wind
  • Ingenious, flat pole sleeve improves aerodynamics in wind and rain. Double seams and stitching offer extreme strength
  • Guylines of ultralite and static Dyneema with a tear force of 180kg
  • Setup requires just 2 stakes. Additional tie down loops make Vela I absolutely storm proof!
  • Fly or canopy can be pitched separately
