The Xenon UL 2 is a very sleek two pole design and has a single front door entrance on the front that enters into the generous front porch which offers lots of space for all your gear. From the porch you can then enter a decent sized sleeping area with breathable inner and vent areas for improved airflow and to reduce condensation.

A footprint or groundsheet protector is an excellent investment – moles have no idea how much financial trauma they cause when trying to surface under a brand new tent!
If you are a super tidy tent person and have a tent partner who, er….isn’t; save yourself hours of torment by gifting them a gear loft or tent tidy so you don’t lose valuable life minutes while they ratch around for their stuff.
Remember to place your shockcorded poles together rather than allow them to snap together this reduces fracturing at the ends over time.
A tarp pitched over the front of your tent can make a great gear garage so you have more space inside. It can also double up as an all weather kitchen.
ALWAYS keep your inner doors zipped up while pitching a geodesic tent in a high wind. If it is not pegged down it could go up, up, up and far away…..
