- Normal : 2mm cord adjustable with Lineloc (+12g).
- Ultra-light (UL) attachment: 3 loops of 1.5mm cord.
Pegs : 155g
- 7 Rockpin pegs to anchor your tipi on the hardest grounds
- 6 UL duraluminium pegs for guylines when the weather turns bad.
Central pole : 205g
Pioulou has been designed to be used with a trekking pole of 130cm in order to minimize weight.
If you do not use trekking poles, an adjustable pole "Mostert" is available. Light, rigid and strong, it will hold against the worst weathers. Parts nest inside each other, making it very compact for carrying (length : 45cm).
Custom color :
If you wish an other colour, please tick the "custom colour" option.
